Update 9/30/2008
All the files are uploaded and ready to go.
Instructions:
-Windows Media player (unzip m2d WMP to m2d WMP folder and put in either in your \program file\windows media player folder or you can create a folder in your storage card called \media player skins and drag m2d WMP there, open your windows media player and go to Menu>Options and pick skins tab, allow your device to search for skins and pick the m2d skin, do this in portrait and landscape)
-Icontact (this skin is for the latest V0.8 if you have below this version it wont work, simply unzip icontact.zip and drag poorlyduckm2d.png and poorlyduckm2d.skn into \Icontact folder, open icontact settings and pick my skin.
-Thumbcal (this skin for the latest version 1.1.2, Dont unzip the file, just drag the skin.m2d.zip into \Program Files\Thumbcal then open Thumbcal and go to Menu>Extras>Settings and pick m2d.
-S2U2 Download the gfx zip file, extrat it in your desktop, delete gfx file in your \Program Files\S2U2 and drag the one you just unzipped to the same location, go to start menu>S2U2>ilock2 to reset the S2U2 then open S2U2 again to see the changes.
If the lading "0" is missaligned in your clock then you need to change the value HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2\TimeFormat to hh':'mm.
To get rid of "Slide 2 Unlock" text, go to HKCU/Software/AC/S2U2/S2UText: remove the entry in this field.
-S2P (The same thing as S2U2 unzip s2p.zip and drag all the files in \program Files\S2P\gfx allow to replace the original ones.)
-Spb calculator (Install SpbELF_calculatorSkin.cab in your device (not storage card) then simply
Drag Spbcal_L.png and Spbcal_P.png into windows folder. that it!
If you already have spb calculator installed already then simply drag the two files to \windows folder and allow to overwrite
the original ones.)
if you uninstall SPB calculator and then you try to open the calculator from the start menu shortcut and its wont open, dont panic, its just a shortcut, you'll find you original calculator in the \windows folder, just create new shortcut.
-HTC dialer (Uninstall any custom dialer you had before and reboot, install poorlyduck m2d dialer.cab in the device and reboot again. that it!
-TSK file for Today screen uploaded.

If you guys like my work check my signature for Donation, as you guys know We spend alot of time and effort in the screen to bring you guys the goodies, a little bit of donation helps motivate us to bring you more and more.
Donators:
Kalvin Smith, Ingvard Tjelta, Christopher Wilkinson, William Dunn, Robert Krasny, Mario Lintz, John Morton, James Lorenz, Michael Lee, Mario Martinez if I forgot someone please pm me with the confirmation number.

Alright guys, here is the black theme you all were waiting for, please follow the instructions below.
1st here is the background I made in case you guys want to use it in different programs.
-Windows Media Player: Unzip Poorlyduck WM m2d Black.zip and drag it into \program file\windows media player folder or anywhere elses where you save your media player skins, go to Menu>Options and pick skins tab, allow your device to search for skins and pick the black skin, do this in portrait and landscape
-Icontact: You need Icontact v0.8, just unzip icontact.zip and drag into \program Files\Icontact, open Icontact settings and pick the skin you desire.
-Thumbcal: Dont Unzip skin.PDThumbcal.zip, Drag as it is into \Program File\Thumbcal folder, Open Thumbcal and go to menu>extras>Settings and pick the skin.
-S2U2: Download the gfx zip file, extrat it in your desktop, delete gfx file in your \Program Files\S2U2 and drag the one you just unzipped to the same location, go to start menu>S2U2>ilock2 to reset the S2U2 then open S2U2 again to see the changes.
If the lading "0" is missaligned in your clock then you need to change the value HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2\TimeFormat to hh':'mm.
To get rid of "Slide 2 Unlock" text, go to HKCU/Software/AC/S2U2/S2UText: remove the entry in this field.
Analog clock is optional, looks good only if you dont want to show the battery and portrait mode only, you need to go to S2U2 Settings and pick ClockA under Information>Clock Font Folder, then slide down to wallpaper options and pick Wallpaper.gif in File/Directory (portrait), if you are using S2U2 1.22 you need to turn the battery off so when you plug your phone to sync, it wont show the analogue clock in top of digital clock background.
-S2P: Unzip poorlyduck s2p black.zip and copy the whole gfx folder into program files\s2p
-Black Dialer: This Dialer is my previews Black Dialer but with fixing the numbers, now are brighte, also fize speedial icons, they were black text in black icons that why it didnt show the numbers, I made the buttons white with black text. Make sure you uninstall any previews custom dialers, reboot then install poorlyduck Black Diamond Dialer.cab in the device.
-HTC Home: unzip htc home.zip and copy the files to your HTC home folder in your device and allow to overwrite the original ones, or use HTC customizer and copy the Diamond icons folder into icons, Diamond Background folder into background and clock folder into a clock. open HTC customizer and pick the desired theme.
-Calculator: Install SpbELF_calculatorSkin.cab uploaded in the 1st post along with m2d skin and, unzip calculator.zip and dragg the 2 files into the \windows and allow to overwrite the original ones.
If you guys like my work check my signature for Donation, as you guys know I spent alot of time and effort in the screen to bring you guys the goodies, a little bit of donation helps motivate me to bring you more and more.

black Diamond TSK file and White background with black numbers as some of you requested, Unzip and replace all the backgrounds and numbers if you are using black theme.

I had alot of requests about the updated Icontact, I dont own the qvga device at this time, that why you dont see me around anymore But I had this done earlier, icontact, latest version, also included the new calculator, new thumbcal and latest m2d digital clock with the Right settings. enojy!

Maybe you won't have to..."I have in both black and this blue color,"
Looks like we'll get to choose from both black and white versions

bootiful..
really curious about that battery for s2u2.. is that a working animated battery? or just a background

htctoucher improved Bubble Theme, PCMContact

here is the previous version of this theme (different contact panel images). Check out the previous version to get touchpal skins to PCMKeyboard also.
It is now significantly faster once loaded, and the landscape looks better as well.
!!UPDATE!! - v2.1
...fixed options page (can see text now)
...added contact picture in sms view
...supports v.25!!
Main differences from last version:
.....Main Contact, Contacts with SMS, and Favorite view are simpler, smoother and more appealing I think.
..option to shrink bubble to text (place settings.ini file found in "settingsini for shrink fit.zip" attached in your PocketCM folder by itself)
And here is the preview:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(by the way, the blurring of the contacts in the preview kind of ruins the look of that part of the theme, so truthfully it looks even better once you get it on your device)
So.. attached are htctoucher Bubble Theme 2.0.zip and
htctoucher Bubble Theme 2.0 GNA.zip (now in second post)
GNA are Gradient No Arrows from my first theme (which you can find in my signature under compilation) and is the preview on the right, while the regular 2.0 is the SMS view on the left in the preview
I realized I had forgotten to add the keyboard in the preview above.. unzip the contents of the "touchpal bigger light.zip" into your PCMKeyboard folder on your device and select them in Options!
I have updated the keyboard to look like this:
it is the htctoucher bubble touchpal.zip
Enjoy!
be sure to check out my other stuff in my signature!
this post now has my original bubbles as well
GA=Gradient Arrows
GNA=Gradient No Arrows
NGNA=No Gradient No Arrows
NGA=No Gradient Arrows
Enjoy!

I dont really have any way to test VGA, so that would be difficult for me to do... I think some users on PocketCM website have made themes into VGA, maybe you could ask around for someone willing to do this? If you get the settings.ini file done in VGA form, I will redo graphics.

For making it blue instead of gray, just open up all the graphics in the .zip that are grey and color balance them to be blue in photoshop or some program like that... if you need more help dont hesitate to ask
Glad you like the theme!
this is the only vga working theme i've found in pocketcm site.
i hope it can help!
i'm willing to use your skin

Sure
Download whichever theme (which is a .zip file) you like (basically just choose which SMS bubbles you like) from the first post
then, drag the .zip file you downloaded to the PocketCM Contacts folder on your Device (I am not sure where this is or what it is called on your device)
then in options within PocketCM Contacts - which you will find by holding down the phone button and releasing on the settings cog icon - press the button "Select Theme" and select the name of whichever theme you downloaded and placed in the PocketCM Contacts folder
hope that helps

Okay.. I will attempt to make a VGA of this theme!
Sorry to say this but it is not going to be very soon, I wil try to start working on it this weekend, but it could be another 2 weeks before I complete it (the settings file is going to be difficult for me since I dont have a VGA device and have not had a lot of time for themeing lately)
Hope that's not too long to wait!
thanks for your interest

I love your themes
Could you modify them in order to use with 0.22 version
Have only one problem: editing contacs the font is white and the background too, so is very dificult to see.
Thank you
Nice work..hope you will release the VGA version soon thanks
Followed your installation instructions but it just comes up orange...what am I doing wrong? What version am I meant to be using?
Got it sorted - I'm using a Mac and it auto unzips folders after download, and rezipping them doesn't seem to work. Downloaded from a PC and it worked - thanks for the theme!
nm worked it out

In the zip-File (Diamond 1.2) from Greatbal is a Folder named "Optional Files" in this is a Subfolder named "BackgroundImage" there are all Diamond Backgrounds
Great work.
I am sticking to the old diamond version layout D. This is mainly because I dont like the changes to phone suite. Will these new icons work with those layouts? If so how would the new versions correspond (ie... which with layout D which with F)
Edit: I changed my layouts to this BG if you can do anything with it.

You don't have to have SPB Phone Suite. If you're using Greatbal theme, then it should be OK.
By the way, the file is ready to download. You're all set.
any idea if these can be used with HTC Home?? If so, is there a mini version of the icons to use with s2u2??
They look awesome btw!

The thing is I do have phone suite. The new layout in 1.2 moves phone suite to the top bar and changes the icons. I kinda like the icons it uses now. Is weather.xml the only change you made to qa_layouts?
and thanks for the updated BG
great work , very cool share , merci amigoooooo

screenshot update!
this is great! i also find manila 2d a bit too much for my titan (sprint mogul) and prefer running wad2. i've been using this theme and made some tweaks for my own usage. it's great because wad2 is so easy to customize. and i love how much weather info and built in system monitors and readings you can use. i really appreciate the effort in making this skin!
i just have a couple issues i thought i would ask about. first, the photo page seems to take forever to load and hogs down system resources indefitinely when changing the path to a folder on the storage card. this may be related to the number of photos i have there and not the path itself. just thought i'd see if anyone was experiencing the same.
second, the sms plugin doesn't seem to be working. i don't see any of my messages on the sms page (and i have installed the xiamultitheme plugin). touching where the plugin is located on the sms does launch the sms app. any ideas?
so happy to see Hong Konger here!!!
just like to ask ask if my Omnia i908 (traditional Chinese Rom) can use your M2d theme???
Thanks. 唔該

No, I meant the SMS, but I see they have a new method now (instead of using MortScript like you had used before). I will have to try it out sometime. I hope to have the From and maybe the first few words from the newest message on the SMS tab on my theme.
I was able to try out your theme and it's very good. Keep them coming!
random question, but what kind of battery drain do you guys see with WAD2? i used to run spb mobile shell, but the extra battery drain was annoying.

[Tips, tricks & Skins] MotoSurf today plugin (big clock added)

MotoSurf is a excelente new today plugin provided by jboogie3 here:

dioxda2 gave us some screens:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

Its much like M2D, SPB SHELL and Iphone today all combined, but simpler.
Its still a little buggy on different devices and (suposedly) a bit of a memory drain, currently theres no ladscape support.

twolf said:
you can enable/disable tabs on the START/Settings/Today/Items/Plugin Options
Or direcly in \Program Files\MotoSurf\TodayOption.exe
Home tab cant be disabled, and the rest of the list is in another font, so the list is as follows:
- Contacts
- Internet
- Weather
- RSS (duh)
- Pictures
- Applications
Other tips:
---------------
- You can click once on the upper window on the HOME tab to fix it to the windows there, with 3 extra shortcuts that you can change easily.
- Ordering the launcher and contacts is pretty obvious, just press whithout releasing the finger and drag afterwords. To remove, use the SETTINGS softkey.
- The big weather is reached after clicking a city. As mentioned by bugsykoosh, the C anf F are also clickable to choose weather type.
- Also mentioned before, the SETTINGS icon on the home tab allows more customization.
- The weather wallpaper option are JPG's inside \Program Files\MotoSurf\ , in fact all the images, icons and XML's that make the layout seem to be there, so skinning and modding this baby should be a breeze.

Hey twolf do you think it is possible to make flip clock in qvga for this plugin? I am just starting to play with modding it a bit.
Im afraid it looks pretty static, even the images dont change untill you restart the plugin... :/
twolf - thanks for bringing this great UI to XDA. Hopefully it will catch on more with others and we'll see some great mods here shortly.
I have an Omnia (WQVGA) - Motosurf works great, however the icons are stretched, as is the wallpaper. I've re-sized the icons and tweaked some of the other images to fit properly - how though do I go about actually resizing the entire UI to fit 240x400? Is it as simple as adjusting the sizes (240x320) included in the xml files? If someone could give me a direction as to where and how to start modding Motosurf to fit 240x400, I would greatly appreciate it!
Thx for Big Clock Twolf...

Updated _application.xml to look much better on WQVGA

@lesscro
thanks for the file. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to do much to the standard layout, except for reducing the size of the calendar text on the home page. The wallpaper is still stretched, as are the contact and favorites images. Thanks for the effort though.
I've attached the icons I re-sized for WQVGA, so they are not stretched. Just unzip and replace current tga files (backup as necessary).
Do you guys have the fix for the favorite aplication issue?, i cannot add one single program !!!
Thanks in advance.

Almost every aspect of S2U2 has been skinned in this theme. I am also including the original wallpaper set make by grzegorz10
Installation of S2U2 theme.
1. Make sure you have S2U2 2.30 or higher
2. Download ALL of the files
3. Install ALL of the files
4. Unzip the wallpapers and put them on your device where you can find them
5. Go to Programs > S2U2 > S2U2 settings
6. Open the "Information" tab
7. Set the Clock folders you want to use (because there are more than 2, the clock folders are not pre-set in the cab
8. If you want the second hand to show on the analog clocks, you have to set the time format to hh:mm:ss
9. Go to the wallpaper tab and select your wallpaper, there are walls for portrait and landscape in the zip, you have to set the wall for it to show
10. Adjust any other settings to your liking and hit SAVE.
11. Go to Programs > S2U2 > S2U2 to restart the program and enjoy!
For all the new clocks get them here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4QL0SJ3W

First of all, you must have S2U2 installed to your phone already. This is for WVGA only. Then you must install it to your device, not to your memory card. Then you have to set your desired clock folders. Some more info on the problem that you are having would be nice.
hi a have instaled but dont work

you have to open iLock2 to turn off S2U2 and then restart it. You also have to set the clock folder and wallpaper in the S2U2 settings. Did you even read my last post? What EXACTLY is it not doing? I just re-installed it on my phone and it worked perfectly. Install, set wallpaper, set clock folder, done. If you don't have S2U2, it won't work. This is a THEME, not the Program.
Works great on Tilt2
Works great on Tilt 2. Minor issue, my 3G icon is showing native icon. Is this icon part of S2U2 theme? If so could you possibly skin? Otherwise I can easily live with this one. Fantastic work thank you for your efforts, it looks awesome on my phone.
Hello, is already working. You can change what it says "slide to unlock" to the
for example "hello"?

I reworked all of the icons that were built into the theme. I have a CDMA device, so I have no way to test that. Wish I could be of more help, but all i did was rework the existing files of S2U2. Thanks for the compliment, I was very happy to make this theme and I hope you and many more will enjoy it.
Not getting a whole lot of input. Lots of people are downloading but nobody is telling me what they think. I can only improve this theme if I have input guys, otherwise I'll stop development of this project.
i installed the cab, but when I am looking in the folder S2u2 nothing is there.
In windows/Appmgr I found an empty folder Xpressyourcell Dushkish, so I have no idea how to get this working...
Cheers,
Arnold

it overwrites existing files in s2u2. Just run iLock2 to stop S2u2, go to S2u2 settings and set what clock folders to use and what wallpaper you want then rerun S2u2 and your changes will show up. It is a skin, not a program. As I already stated in POST #3 and Post #5.
Can you please post the files in a zip format?
The cab files crash my S2U2, im using Omnia II.

I also got it working on my Omnia, I had to reinstall everything onto the main drive and not my storage.
Initially I had it on my storage(16gig) instead of the main drive(100meg).
Could you possible redo the battery pic? Something along the lines of the flip clock and slider button styling (black, glossy and just all around slick!)
Also, for the top curtain the lock icon is somewhat squished looking, im not sure if thats how you wanted it to look?
Dont mean to sound like a nit picker but I noticed that you were looking for feedback from your previous post.
Awesome skin!

Thanks for the input. I too am a little unhappy with the lock icon but the spacing on the icons is very specific and I will have to redo the whole top bar. Right now I'm just to busy with other projects and work. Glad you like it.
Just updated the first post with instructions on how to install.
this theme is spectacular, thank you very much
is it possible to update for the new 2.30 s2u2?? it's not working with repositioning the slider on the center..thanks.
Thanks your share, the very good creativity, thanks ~
