Hey everyone. I was sick of all the Diamond themes but liked the black look so I figured I'd share my tsk theme I created. Just drop the file into your windows directory and select it under your Today options.
I also replaced my Windows Start logo with a Vista Orb. If you are interested in doing something like that please follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378084
I attached the tsk file and my Vista Orb shellres96 mui file for anyone who is interested. Let me know what you think.
Thx...
Always loved this theme, just never found it with flat bars...
Kudos ;-)
great theme man, im using it right now
Hope you don't mind, but I am going to move this to the software section.

Thanks both of you. Just something I made up quick as my background needed a change bad.
I just DL'ed and am using it on my tilt...Somehow green and blue at&t themes dont go well with the htc home screen...Thanks a lot!!!
Great theme! Curious though... is there any way to get this theme without flat bars... particularly at bottom. Just wondering how it would look.

Thanks, I'm sure there is a way. I may make some more tsk themes here soon. Will post them up if and when I do.
Bonus points!
much appreciated for making this theme =)
now it's time for me to find out how to change the windows flag to the Vista orb.
Thanks again
Thanks, man..Been looking for this .tsk for a while...PERFECT!
What did you use?
Love the flat bars in this theme. I've been trying to make my own using ThemeGenCE and I can't figure out how to tweak the top and bottom bars. Could you share how you did that and what tool you used?
thanks alot i'll try it now

With WM6 Bars are 3D. open ThemeGenCE then hit "wm5" tab then hit "key+" button. if you define Specific keys like these one :
* "Color_SoftkeyFlatCenter"
* "Color_TitleFlatCenter"
they become "flat". Thanks to Meschle
GOOD
I like the sleek look of it. The colors also look good.

Batti - has it been optimized for 6.1?
I've seen some posts where people have batti and it has a vista like rainbow look and feel.
Is there a way to change the app so you can put the bar on the bottom? Someone want to update the app to do that?
I know it's not Batti, but it's not this one you're seeing is it?
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-vistahide-battery-gauge-v1-1-1.html
It does the same job as Batti, has the rainbow colours you mentioned and it definitely works in WM6.1 (it's built into some ROMs).

+1 for a blue or black background. The "glass" is very nice but makes it hard to view some of the white text. Great job!
possible black background
just an idea...text is hard to read, here are some potential candidates for the black background
it would be nice if you wouldn't change the original theme only the colors to look like glass and stuff but the original theme to remain the same.so can you change only the colors please? thamx.

Blue/Black
....first off....most impressive...i agree with most of the comments that either a default blue or black would be generally preferd....apart from that its fantastic....(nice balance)....looking forward to your update....
Nice themes....with the unique icons and transparents....
I'll gonna try with my device now....Thanks...
very good. Thanks a lot.
oo and one more thing..can you please make it available on VGA too ?! and can you please tell me how can I link Vito SMS chat to the button above the clock, instead of entering into original sms software, I want to enter in vito sms chat ?! THANKS.
yeah
man i realy like it ... looking forward for a "wm7blue" version too ... it would be awesome !!!!
but whats "MOGILEV" over the wheter icon??? it is possible to change this?
for the background can u make this one in it? (attechment)
Excellent Work!!!! Thank you for your hard work!!! One question, How do I change the City name on the home screen to my city( New Bedford) from Mogilev? Ive tried and tried changing the qa layout dat file to zip and every time I try to change it back to a dat file from the zip file it stays zip. I LOVE this theme I would just really like to have my city, Im sick of people asking me what Mogilev is,LOL. Thank You VERY MUCH!!
This is awesome!
I really like this theme, and appreciate your hard work and very nice graphics.
Like previous post. I searched everywhere to change the city, but can't locate it. Can you show us where I should look.
I love the clock, just like RomModv22 with black background.
Thank you!
p.s. Will there be landscape mode ?
Question for other people: How can I edit to use my blackdiamond dialer, instead of this contact dialer?
...like it!...
ohh that caught my eye..

It is theoretically possible, but the bubbles would all be the same color, which kind of defeats the purpose. Plus, if the text is more than one line, it won't look very good.
Needless to say, I've already tried it.
Finally a good look for this bad looking app. THNX!
this is great, thanks for this.

this is exactly what ive been lookin for, but do you plan on releasing a black version with white font? been lookin for that ever since i found out about sms chat
What I would love to go with this is a iphone like SMS popup (see picture). Or something similar but with a HTC style. One of the main puposes that I use this for is the notifications. I love this theme!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the theme, i'm thinking to make my own theme, what graphic editor should i use ? i can't open your file with Paint.NET
FunContact
Great Skin, Love how it makes it more HTC original. Can you please make one for FunContact?
I LOVE the black theme, but i work a lot moving around and the black background makes reading the screen hard.

I don't see how it's that fair to register on a forum just to say "not that good"... And then even spell it incorrectly.

I take it you're using the 'old style' Today screen, and not M2D or the Titanium panel...? Unfortunately, that is a problem with the newer WM 6.5 beta builds, it started happening in build 23*** I think. I'm still looking for a solution to that..

You can switch by going to Start > Settings > Personal > Home, then switch to the 'Items' tab and select 'Windows Default'. That will enable the Titanium / CHome Panel.
On the left is the 'old style' home screen (doesn't have very much on it, but you can choose a bunch of different components for it; Tasks, Messaging, etc.), on the right is the newer 'Titanium' or 'CHome Panel':
Note: If you have any questions more detailed than this, please do a search on XDA-Dev and you'll see a lot more information..
I've already done that before.. But still the same..

If you could ever manage to get it on a WM 6.1 Xperia phone (wvga), you would be my official hero (if you arn't already : P ). Unfortunately, I've been stuck staring at this for far too long... I think I'm going to be sick.

Bit on the Grey side?
I wouldn't swear to it but my Dialers might work on 6.1 phones, even if the themes do not. After all they are only replacing the default WM dialer images and they haven't changed for ages. Of course you wouldn't have options for video calling etc that a proper phone canvas has.
Thanks.
Would you be able to tell me what are the files you need to skin to change the default dialer?

There are 21 of them. Easiest way to see what they are would be to download one of my dialer cabs and extract the files with wince cab manager.
Edit: I remembered all the names enough to be able to copy the files off my phone for you. Gave me something to do while stuck here at work
Here they are, ripped and zipped!
the skins are spectacular! but i have a qvga device... not work on it.... T_T...
