You're my boy blue!!!
Man, here you are again with the icons, I'm excited! I just gave my Touch the Diamond overhaul today.
My suggestion on the style would be to either keep it the way you have (I personally use the grayscale effect in UL on the icon touch) or have the icon image in grayscale with the Diamond green font, I believe it's an emerald color.

WIcKED
I agree. I would like to see the grey scale my self. I'm starting the diamond express on my touch as we speak. Your the man blue. Oh by the way, thanks for all the support you've showed in the General Questions thread. Keep up the good work.

thanks for your feedback.
okay here is another test.
But i think we need some color, but text or picture ? Both would be too much.

ChANGED My MinD
Actually , I changed my mind. I just started gettin some of the home screens on my touch, and I would actually much rather use the Opera in red. I would really like to see both. You couldn't really get it perfect unless you could mix it up with the grey scale and the color's.

How about instead of the gray outline, use the green, with the colored icon and black font?

mmh, after some sleeping, i thing the first thought is often the best, i will make some icons for testing with grey text and colored symbols and try them also in vga
question: what iconsize do you need for vga , 64 x 64 ?

definitely both vga and qvga.
My perfect icons would have
1. Color variants: Black and White
2. Highlight/Border color: Green for White, White/Gray for Black
3. No Text, Only Images
4. Images in Gray/Black/White (I prefer un-colored)
Thanks mate.

as some of you may know i was making about 340 icons for my last set. so making this new one with black and white background would be too much for one man, because this will last weeks or months.
so i will do the white background because i like this clean white style that is so different to all this black styles here in the community.
but i will do more tests and again some questions:
1 do you need the icons also highlighted and for what app ??
2 what size do you need for vga ??

Update see first Post !

I like.... Can you put a small YouTube in your CorePlayer icon?

Can you please make some QVGA ones for Kaiser? Thanks

54 Icons are Ready, also new coreplayer with youtube.
See first Post

I have a few requests if possible:
netfront, active sync, spb backup, slingplayer and ewallet. Also, if you could possibly post the icons in .ico format for ultimate launch. Thanks in advance, your icons always rock!

Blue, always making my PPC eye candy. Love the work man! I would say use the same apps from the prev set.
@m_kranzler11: blue listed the site to download software to convert to .ico
Love the "AC/DC" on the sounds icon! Cause I'm back in black..

Icons are far too small for Ultimatelaunch. Can you make it 48x48?

great work on the icons

They are in 48x48, .ico images have different size sets included in one, did you adjust the size in UL?
Trust me they work, there on my Touch right now.

Touchflo 3d wallpaper change

Hey guys, I know this has been posted before, and i feel bad for making a new topic about it, but i've tried searching and cannot for the life of me find the topic. I don't even know the proper keyword to search.
Anyways an answer would be greatly appreciated.
In the touchflo 3d tabs, I know how to change the main wallpaper, but how do i put individual wallpapers for each tab?
Do i need 3rd party software? or is it a reg edit?
Thanks in advance!

no one can help me out????

hmm, thanks for replying, although it didn't really provide a solution to my question.
is there even a solution or it's not possible?

Do you mean the few dark grey squares in the backgroud that show in different tabs? My belief is that you can't change the wallpaper there because it's not a simple wallpaper image file that is there (my belief is the background is built up by one single square image file). But you can change the color of the squares (from grey to red or blue) or outlook of individual squares (from rectagle to circle, maybe? but it may look silly to do so).
Well at least not for now, but I am sure somebody is hacking the phone hard enough to make it happen one day .
you need manila editor to change the square appearance, btw. Look for the "square" image file in manila editor and change it to whatever color/shape you like. Try, if you don't like it. Switch it back.

New WM 6.5 Titanium Theme

Hello everyone,
Just finished another version of Titanium Themes I am working on. I have portrait & landscape cabs for: VGA, WVGA, QVGA & WQVGA.
The .cab changes your titanium text to icons only, the background, taskbar, etc will not be changed.
Note that I do like the text, however, the icons allow for a more visible background.
Themes are thanks to twolf & mallman as it could not have been completed without them.
I suppose we can call QVGA & WQVGA official, no weather or Opera support now though I do intend to add them ...one of these years.
Downloads attached in this post. Betas are thanks to OndraSter.
You may lock up your phone & have to clear storage, so I recommend you back up first.
A new not so beta WVGA has been added for download. Note the home tab is slightly different (4th screen). Support for Opera & a few other plugins was added so long as you install your plugins first. Lastlly you won't have the Neuropol font, which is only attached to the home tab, unless you add it to \windows\fonts\. I dunno if I can attach it here or not so here's a link to dload it for now: http://www.dafont.com/neuropol.font
Background for VGA screens are from SsS (by Deck on PPC) rom default, stated made by jbchow.
Please feel free to modify & repost this theme as long as it is free.
Enjoy!

very slick

very impressive! Could you upload your wallpaper as well?

This looks good. I didn't like the large text, so reduced it...but your idea of having icons is perhaps even better. I wonder if there is a way to show the icon and when you put u drag the bar, if the icon + text can show. I'll give it a shot when I have some free time.
Thanks

SeanFromSoCal: You should be able to do both. I was thinking about changing the icon to text only when highlighted myself. However, the preview of messages, etc is the only reason I stray from doing so.
My next icon only theme will remove at least one of the secondary icons. You may have noticed the time/alarm was slightly lower than the other icons, it is my intention to release a set without the time/alarm icons on the time bar to better show backgrounds.
eleguent: About the background question, apologies as it is not mine to give, however, you could extract it from the SsS rom here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=68755
oldsap: Thank you!
Thanks everyone, I hope the set is enjoyed. Also, please feel free to rip this thing apart & reuse it to your pleasure so long as you keep it free.

I'm with you. In attempts to maximize the amount of background shown I also tried messing around with the layer heights. I was trying to make the ClockExpanded height nearly full screen and leaving all the other layers their current height, but the Titanium doesn't appear to let you have different height attributes. When I make all of the plugin heights larger (trying to get fullscreen/near fullscreen plugins), the text would get distorted.
Stupid M$! Fix your Titanium UI to make it recognize all XML attributes so we can full flexibility.

am waiting lool

ive installed the cab but cant see it in the list of themes.

I believe you may not be using the windows default (titanium theme).
The theme should appear when you check "Windows Default" in you Today settings.
Please let me know how it goes.

You could do that by shifting the images of the clock plugin outside the panel and insert above the clock plugin some blank plugins so the text of the other condensed plugins does not come in the way.

How bout in WQVGA PLEASE

Theme help!

Im in the process of making my own theme but there is one part i'm stuck on. In certain places the colours are not from a png but from a registry setting i.e the list selectors in call history, or apps like Resco Explorer.
I suspect it's the reg entry in tsk as below:
ThemeValues"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,FF,FF,FF,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
FF,FF,FF,00,FF,FF,FF,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,FF,FF,FF,00,FF,FF,FF,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,50,50,50,00,FF,FF,FF,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,FF,FF,FF,00,00,00,00,00,00,\
This gives a shade of grey but how do i edit this string to make those same selectors black? I think it is the 50,50,50 part so do i just lower those values or is there more to it?

Yep, that's the value to change. You can even achieve more complicated results like inverting the system colors (as seen in kane159 HollBlack Themes).
For the selection colors you mentioned you already found the right digits, you have to change them to 00,00,00 for black. You need to understand how the hexadecimal RGB-notation works for this .

Thank you for confirming that. At least it's not going to be trial and error now

Here's a trickier one. Hopefully somebody will know the solution:
When you tap and hold on an item to bring up a context menu there is the circle of dots animation. How does one modify the colour of that now? I understand that it used to be an entry in the same place as above called 40 with a Binary value. I assume as i don't have that value that the method has changed?

Look in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color\MultiColorTheme, there are four values (BaseColor1 through BaseColor4). The dots you mentioned get the color by somehow mixing these four values together... I have BaseColor1 and 3 set to black (simply 0) and the other two to white (FFFFFF hex), and the dots are grey. They also controll the gradient in some legacy message boxes (for example when deleting something from the file explorer).

I see what you mean! Mine are set to the same values as yours and so are obviously grey too. I want them black really so i will try it with all values set to 0.
Thanks again for your help!
EDIT: Well, i altered the values of all four to 0 in my tsk and re-installed my Theme. It's still grey I guess there must be more to it than this. It's not a big deal but if you have any other suggestions i'd really appreciate it.

appwidget backgrounds

hi all,
i'm just wondering...
is there any free appwidget backgrounds gallery/collections available out there?
i thought it was easier to find them and i'm beginning to think that it is not so (or maybe i'm not able to!).
except for the psd files on the official "widget design guidelines", creating my own one is the only way?
and what about the classical one... black, a little gray gradient, rounded corners...?
thanks.

just wondering if my question is malformed or misplaced somehow...

I do not know any widget gallery...as every widget has it´s own individual size.

aren't sizes limited to 1x1, 2x2, 2x1... 4x1...?
