Hmm looks like his concept was inspired by someone else's design lol.. well anyways ive attached the Sonnar Inspirat along with a PSD of the background so you can add your own unique images.

Hi Aegishua
Hi there, nice and simple theme, extremely light. Keep on the good work
BTW you mention that "contacts" doesn't work, obviously your link has a small error: you wrote "contacts.ink" instead of "contacts.lnk" (with an L like austraLia
) happened to me too!
Ahaha nice, but will lnk work with the start_app item class? just verify that it does and i'll change it
THANKs

Hi,
How do you get the background show up like the pictures posted here.
I set it as background via settings/Today but the colour appear faded/washed out.
I added it into the .xml by adding this line:
<image left="0" top="1" src="Sonnar BGFinal1.png" height="300" width="240"/>
The colours are great now but the bottom of the background is cut off. See screenshot
Also what is the purpose of the TrayIcons section of the xml. When I enable trayicons in Homescreen ++ options the display becomes too long for the screen and the scrollbar appears. Is this just a matter of reducing the height of the spacer row? Then the background may have to be shortened to compensate.
theme request
http://img110.imageshack.us/img110/8655/launcherzf8.png
can you make a theme like this
This theme is really great look at the picture some guy from XDA Developer was trying to make a new interface for omnia
(PLEASE TAKE PERMISSION FROM THE AUTHOR BEFORE YOU START MAKING THE THEME)
@ ronjoor, when you set your today background... try doing this.
1. Goto your file explorer and find the image file.
2.Then open it with pimg(the default image viewer) and then hit your RIGHT softkey to open the Menu.
3. Then from there SET AS TODAY BACKGROUND.
4. Set the Transperancy level to 0%
@fusioncoast We've been over this already. the fact that it uses a curved layout for the icons means the slide used in batterystatus wouldnt be smooth. You would need to use Flash or different program to accomplish this. Also.. you could always ask him to adapt it from whatever program he was using cause im not sure what that theme is from.
@tito12 Thanks a tonne mate. it works xD
I Still need some inspiration for a new BS Theme... feel free to post something and I'll get around to it. post about ANY issues about the theme itself or if you'd like to see some changes. Just say so and I'll consider it(I'll actually look into it lol).
IMPORTANT:
DOWNLOAD Version 0.2 TO MAKE CONTACTS WORK! See Post 3.
Looks good!
Diggin the layout, testing it on my Verizon XV6900 (HTC Vogue)
Downloaded 0.2, contacts link still not working. Any way to change the clock to 12-hr format?
Also, I can't change the batterystatus to Sonnar...is the reason because of the phone I have? I'm not terribly familiar with HS++ and how to customize the Today screen. I'd like to get my upcoming appointments on the screen if possible. Also, can you create a button on the screen to lock the phone? If i add it through the Today screen settings, it throws off the background image. Any help/guidance would be great!!
See the attached screenshots of with and without the device lock on Today.
Okay, if you want to get that lock working the easy way, I'd remove the bottom bar BUT if you want the tray icons with the bottom bar you'd need adjust the background and the spacer settings.
Code:
<!-- Spacer -->
<Row name="Spacer" rowtoggle="0">
<View height="85">
<Item class="space" type="value">
<label text=" " fontfamily="Segoe UI" align="center" left="0" top="0" fontsize="13" width="30"/>
</Item>
</View>
</Row>
you'd change "View Height" accordingly. My advice personally.. use todaytoggle, the softkeys will still work. Just the ugly bar will dissapear. Sorry i couldn't be of more help, sorta rushing to get to uni. maybe when i get back i'll help you abit more.
i think i kind of got the fix on it...
there is a DeviceLock settings that I can check through the OnHold function, which seems to lock it everytime the screen turns off (which is basically what I was looking for). Also, found a way to get my calendar in the homescreen by integrating the 'TodayAgenda' plugin and playing around with the XML file so it will fit. Also needed to change the background image a bit since the homescreen resizes depending on how much is in the Agenda screen.
I just need to figure out the 24 hr clock to 12 hr...my silly american upbringing won't allow me to learn how to read 24 hr clock. Ok, that's a lie, i just prefer 12 hr.
See my new TodayScreen attached. Thanks for getting this whole thing off the ground, I hope you don't mind my tweaking!
working on my device
very nice bro n thanks
Cool
Very nice dude looks great

RLToday theme for weather only?
Ive been trying for a while but I just dont know how to create rltoday themes, isnt it possible to create a theme only for getting weather info from yahoo? Im trying to make a theme like this one which I already have all icons for small, normal and huge. Thanks
Im trying to "touch up" on my own theme, however i find it taxing to edit it in word on my laptop then transfer it on to my phone then refresh the program.
Is there some way i can edit it on my phone, or edit it on my pc and see the results before i transfer it to my phone?
stefanux
Wow! Thanks
It it possible using MortScript and RLToday to pull the current, hi and low temps for today using this link I found?
http://www.weather.gov/xml/current_obs/KFFZ.xml
If so, can someone get me started in the right direction. Show me one, and I can finished the rest. Just don't know where to begin.

Yes! Use Total Commander to drill down to the rlToday folder, rename the file from skin.xml to skin.txt then dbl click it to open. Word will edit the file like a normal text file. When done, close it. Word will warn you to save in .doc format, which you DON'T want to do. Click no, and it will save as a txt file. Close Word, then rename the file back to skin.xml . Now go back to your Today screen and have rlToday reload the skin. Voila! Changes visible.
All functioning and even the screen orientation icons make sense now.
Thanks to icons mostly from here:

Realize weather icons from oscarbum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3032867&postcount=24
[UPDATE] Added neon weather icons to neon.zip file (adapted from original Vito icons)
[UPDATE] See post #59 for extra Neon icons in a dll file. They can be used by calling them in a .lnk file as described elsewhere in this forum.
Briefly, you make a txt file and the syntax would be, for instance:
81#"\Storage Card\Program Files\CorePlayer\player.exe"?\Storage Card\My_icons.dll,-20
where the number 20 is the icon index in the dll file. I've also attached in post #59 a png file showing the icon index number for all of the icons in the dll file.
Best of luck
Great, thank you!
That's funny. I've been working on a new theme for WAD2 using this set and it didn't occur to me to use it for WF. Nice work.
Amazing Work! Thanks
For me, THE best skin for winterface... great job, and thanks for sharing
Posted the various links for WF themes here on xda-devs...
...at blog.iwindowsmobile.com
and the moderators keep removing them.
I wonder why :-/
i think they still see skinning as hacking. but then what do they expect if they don't offer alternative themes themselves? even though the software is pretty good, many people won't buy it because of the oppressive look of the UI.
people want a constant theme running through their whole device and application UI, or they want to be able to tweak things to their satisfaction
*more people will buy the software*
hope someone from Vito reads this.
i love it man vito/iwindows should allow open skins for this it makes it more attractive...and i was think (maybe its too ipone-ish but) they should lock the bottom bar and allow us to put our most used apps/settings/contax etc there just a thought but im addin this new skin to the collection
Great! Thanx friend!
thanks for all. I like it. I love the VITO Interface but now it has a very very good look and beautiful colors...
Thanks a lot...
Just for a laugh...
...some hand-drawn icons added to first post
nice, nice... thanxx man
Nice, thanks dave
If you ever decide to do another Winterface theme...
Here's some things I've found that might save you some time....
1. Don't do a calendar icon. Winterface replaces it with the background icon in the black file and puts the date on it.
2. Don't do a clock icon. Same reason.
3. Also, the weather icon in the icons file is no longer used. It pulls the info from the weather icons.bmp.
4. On my phone anyway, Winterface doesn't use the calculator icon. Kind of an odd glitch.
5. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know for sure, but unless the plain bluetooth icon opens bluetooth explorer, doing all three icons is pointless too.
6. This next point actually adds time, but I noticed you did not do anything with the top row contact icon. It is skinnable, you just need to make sure you do EXACTLY the same thing to the contact icon in black.bmp.
Great job, as always. I hope to be back working on more icons soon as well once I finished my Blackberry Bold theme for WAD2.
Another theme
Here's one I threw together this morning. (Are we nearing the point of simply having a Winterface theme thread?)
I don't know if I've posted the weather icons before but it goes well with the realize theme.
oscarbum said:

1. Don't do a calendar icon. Winterface replaces it with the background icon in the black file and puts the date on it.
Although I think it does use this icon if your default calendar app is not the standard Windows one. One way of working is to have your appointments shown on S2U2 as you unlock and use a better calendar such as Thumbcal as standard
2. Don't do a clock icon. Same reason.
3. Also, the weather icon in the icons file is no longer used. It pulls the info from the weather icons.bmp.
That's another ton of work I have to do :-(
4. On my phone anyway, Winterface doesn't use the calculator icon. Kind of an odd glitch.
Mine neither, but I figured that's because I dono't use the standard calculator
5. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know for sure, but unless the plain bluetooth icon opens bluetooth explorer, doing all three icons is pointless too.
Yes, the plain one opens Bluetooth settings
6. This next point actually adds time, but I noticed you did not do anything with the top row contact icon. It is skinnable, you just need to make sure you do EXACTLY the same thing to the contact icon in black.bmp.
I thought the very same thing this morning. My upcoming theme will change this icon as well
Great job, as always. I hope to be back working on more icons soon as well once I finished my Blackberry Bold theme for WAD2.

Should be able to post another here in a day or so, depending on whether I take on the buttons and the weather icons as well!
Good work and thanks for the tips
well i notice the slide to unlock image (lock) is messed up. also, there are pink dots on bottom left and right of bluetooth icon.
other than that they're amazing. thanks for the icons.
we are also waiting your last theme with realize icons,oscarbum.
thank you both.
is anyone else having this issue.. it's also noticed when i move icons around and when one icon goes over another, it has parts of the icon that is transparent and that's how the lock looks when it appears. this is vga supported, right? i have touch pro.
Yes, I think that's the messed up lock icon that was mentioned
on another note though, I can' get the contact pictures to work if I change any of the contact icons as you said oscarbum.
I've tried changing the two in black.bmp and the one in icons.bmp in every combination and it doesn't work.
The pictures need to work in three places in the theme:
When you view you contacts ready to dial
When you select the contact to bring up details
When you add a contact.
There is no combination of changed icons (all identical) that works.
2 Minds sharing one thought, to experiment and create in their lab's. The outcome will always be a new breakthrough in the PPC world of theme's.
More experiments and creations are taking place in the labs, more to come.

yo godzson could you let me know if im doing something wrong.in the mail part of my touchflo on the envelope there are no words.at the top of the envelope i can just make out some of the words but there faded.other then that excellent work as always.me and my wife both have your theme creation on our pros and your fonts and have been waiting on you to hit us with something new.we really appreciate all the work.you and showaco are a mean combination im sorry forgot to say that i have stock rom touch pro and i used the simple cab you provided. i did try uninstalling and reinstalling but no luck.thanx in advance bro
Hi!
Looks marvelous!!! I'm realy happy with this..
But I've only got one question. I once made my own theme and I very much like that one too. But I like your top and bottom bar very much..
Could it be possible to make a cab file for me, to install only your beautiful top and bottom bar? That would be superb, cause then I can maybe combine it with my own skin later on..
But don't worry: I'll tell my friends the credit goes to you guys..
Thnks!
Mzl, Floris!
i LOVE it !! Thanks !!!!!!!
erm why can i now only select US-States in weather damn'it I live in germany lol ... can anyone guide me on how to get that back? else its great
i think its related to 7fccb263_manila, right? anyone got that in original? thanks!
Or maybe you could tell me witch files in the CFC zip file are the files which install the top and bottom bar.. that would also be good for me!
Thnks!
the task bar is not part of it, it is a theme for wisbar if I'm not mistaken...

and in the landscape section....programs doesnt work.
oh weather wont update as well.... couple be cause something else im running, not sure.
when i get on my laptop ill check it more... im on the tp
thanks....
also, maybe you guys should add a options section to change the font and the color of the font without having to dowload a new cab. i have some walpaper that i like but dont work well with the current font color. be nice to be able to use the same theme since i do like it but be able to change the wallpaper.
thanks for the hard work guys, awesome
Rocking Theme
Thanks for this. A great team effort and awesome theme.
I only have one small request and it may just be me but I crave colour
Not the fonts just the wallpapers and maybe the icons.
You guys have really outdone yourselves on this one. Keep working together cause this is outstanding.
Maybe the next project could be transparent top and bottom bars?
Hi All, thought I would publish my first effort at a WAD2 theme. My main aim after using other peoples themes was to make one that is 'thumb friendly' and real simple to use. It has 3 menu pages with large graphical buttons, and a 'home' screen with shortcuts to txt, email and call list. this theme is 99% portrait, how ever on my touch pro 2 if i flip the keyboard and go to landscape i do have a very basic black home screen with the 3 shortcuts. If people like the theme and would like to produce their own icons, let me know and I can post up some photoshop templates.
Installation
Install the files to your normal theme directory and search for new themes, then select Angularz as your portrait and/or landscape theme. Please make sure you install the fonts prior to use, as it may not the clock etc correctly.
Fonts
I use helvetica Neue fonts in the theme and have supplied these in the zip file. I also have replaced my system font with helvetica as it looks nicer, but I will leave that down to you. If you just want to use the fonts for WAD only, place the 3 helvetica fonts in your windows folder (with the rest of the system fonts)
I think I have packaged up all the correct bits (if not please let me know!!)
PLEASE CAN A MOD ALLOW ME TO SHARE LINKS!!
This looks neat. Nice docks.
good day.
it's just WOW!!
Thankyou!, I just wanted something simple but visually nice to look at, and this is the end result!
I find that if you increase the display cache size (through altering the windows registry) it does make it scroll through pages a little smoother.
thatbastard,
I'm using your theme and IMO, it is a simple but gorgeus. However, I have a problem with all notifiers. They are not appeared when I have some unread sms or missed calls. Do you have any suggestions? My device is Omnia i8000.
hi Laruku
You can try going to author mode, then page - show notifiers. Go to the properties once held down on the notifier and have a look through there. Mine is set on 'notifier type - unread sms' etc. by default this should work, however I dont know how different it would be on an omia. have a look in there and see if anything has changed.
how do you get out of author mode
taphold at any page and you'll get yourself the popup menu, i forgot which is the get out of author mode menu,,, but it is there,,,
@thatbastard,
would you mind sharing the images? the home wallpaper is really nice.
new version of WAD converts all the images folder into .wadesktop extension,,, which prevents me for extracting the images,
thx
here's my version
hello everybody !
Here's MY angularz, i hope you'll like this.

you can see this on Youtube : v=GXtEynNZaf4 (sorry but i'm new here and can't post the shortcut.

Thanks for adding a bit of originality to my blackstone

Looks great !!!
wow, great theme
i think i'll make some personal changes and it'd be perfect for my daily use, YO~
DOOD JOB!!
Really nice. It's a shame, imo, that windows phone7 doesn't look more like this. My only comment would be that it might look better to have the text in panels up and to the right a few pixels, and have the voicemail icon transparent. (I can only comment on the screenshot as I don't have VAD2 installed on my device...
Thought it would be handy to have a volume icon on the home screen...
Steve.
Hi all, thanks for checking out my theme, Ive glad youve all liked it. Unfortunately I dont have wisbar installed anymore (and Ive had a lot goin on recently) so will not be continuing anymore projects but I thought I would share the remaining files I have. You can continue modding from my theme as freely as you like, as long as you mention it was based on my creation

Sure, there should be a zip file with ALL the angularz images. Ive also included a new homescreen which is a gloss black version (was going to be called Mono Tonez) but it will not be finished.

good looking theme
willing to release a WQVGA version?
I´m new user of wad and i don´t know how to install this theme. I´ve installed mortscript and wad, and theme in lakerbridge/themes, and fonts in windows/start menu/programs fonts folder, but I don´t know where install angularz.wadesktop
Thanks a lot of.
Uncle Google says:
1. Using ActiveSync, copy the .wadesktop file to any location on your device.
2. From your device, use File Explorer to navigate to the .wadesktop file you just placed there, then tap on it to launch it.
3. You will be prompted as to a location to place the extracted files. Choose any location you wish (I personally find it helpful to have a Themes folder set up in advance).
4. Once the files are extracted, open WisBar Advance Desktop (if it's not open already), tap and hold on the screen, then tap Change Theme.
5. Now tap Menu > Scan for Themes. When the scanning process is complete, the theme you just installed should appear on the list.
6. Tap the theme, then tap Menu. Choose the appropriate menu option for setting as portrait or landscape. Please note that theme files are usually designed for one orientation or the other.
7. Tap Apply and you're done.
This should get you set up.
Thank you, uncle...
I´ll try.

FINAL VERSION RELEASED
**ATTACHMENT IN POST 2**
This is moving on from the last version (15 Nov 2010) so install the same as that version, except using this theme folder instead. See below:
INSTALLATION:
unrar the 'Desire Final' folder from the attachment and copy to Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance Desktop\Themes.
Open WAD, enter settings menu, change theme (if theme is not listed choose scan for themes) highlight 'Desire Final', menu - set as portrait theme, apply.
Screenshots also in post 2

12 NOVEMBER 2010
TOTALLY NEW VERSION AVAILABLE
-- Check the video preview at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7WV5PheWX8 --
TO INSTALL
Copy 'Desire 6 page + menus theme' folder to Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance Desktop\Themes.
Open WAD, enter settings menu, change theme (if theme is not listed choose scan for themes) highlight 'Desire 6 page + menus theme', menu - set as portrait theme, apply.
Enter WAD settings menu, weather, and set the small/medium/large icon sets to those attached to this post. Leave icon type set to Weatherpanel/Pocket weather.
The wifi toggler, BT toggler Radio on/off (fligt mode) and call history shortcut are included just in case you can't already create shortcuts to these options using standard WAD commands.
The Text Back folder contains shadowing to place behind text under your shortcuts, to look a bit more android-ey.
The Power Control Widget folder contains all the images I made for it, in case you want to change them.
That should be it!!!!
I like this better then the original theme, if you have any questions please let me know and as usual, all feedback is appreciated.
Regards,
wildcardspv
EDIT:
In this version, I disabled 'slide to change pages' in WAD, because when trying to slide up to access the page selection screen, it was really difficult to do so.
I much prefer to have the 'slide to change pages' function active as it makes using the theme see more fluid, so since uploading the theme, I've re-enabled it and set the properties of the taskbar (at the top) to 'switch to page' (page is called 'page select') when the taskbar is tapped.
This is much easier to use and I wish I'd thought of it before uploading the theme!!
If you prefer sliding between pages, try making this change too.

Oh yeah,
On any dock (except weather forecast) press the downward arrowhead in the circle (bottom left button) to exit author mode, and press home to close the dock.
Fonts
Here's some extra fonts to use as well.
extract the files from the .rar and copy them to Phone Memory\Windows\Fonts.
The one used throughout this theme is Droid Sans.

Updated version, plus video
Here's a new version with some slight tweaks and improvements.
After installing this version, Enter WAD settings menu, weather, large icon set, point this to the 'WeatherIconsLarge folder'. Leave icon type set to Weatherpanel/Pocket weather.

I like WAD very much,but for HD2,A frozen,broken or pink wallpaper often happens! To be or not to be, it's a question,WAD or HD2, it's a question,too!
I didn't use WAD untill see your theme. Great work, I'll try it! Thanka a lot!
Wad haves so many problems and bugs I cant even use this theme.
Sherri1023 - That's a shame, i've honestly never had a problem with WAD
Vagrantman - I hope this works for you. Don't forget to disable touchflo/sense on a htc device if you're using WAD
