I know this is counter to some of the really cool work being done here. But is there a CAB available that would restore the default, boring white TaskBar Icons? I really like the color ones, but when my phone is on mounted on my dashboard, I cannot read the color where the standard white Icons show up nicely.
Thanks for any help.

go to remove programs and delete the taskbar pack you installed.
It is preloaded/cooked in a rom. All of the new ROMs have fancy Icons except for the DaG kitchen. So unless I learn to become a master chef, I am still searching for my boring icons.

Me too, I would like to have my standard whitey icons back, I am currently using Shep's WM 6.5 ROM.
is there any?

I'm running Duttys Hybrid ROM on a Tilt (Fantastic! I like it a lot more than stock 6.1!). So far, there are a few things I'd like to change. I've got a different wallpaper theme and it makes some of the articles on the today screen hard to see, especially the LED style digital clock numerals. I'd like to change the clock to the type I see on a lot of the Diamond themes, the old-fashioned flip-card type numeral look.
Is it possible to just get the clock without having to change ROMs? Can I even get this clock face for this ROM?

Thanks.
All functioning and even the screen orientation icons make sense now.
Thanks to icons mostly from here:

[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.

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.
Is it possible to change the icon label backgrounds on sense ui to transparent?
Specifically for sprint hero?
thanks
Yes, it is possible.
You can recolor all Icons of Hero.
But it's lot of work. I'll try it some times, but still didn't like it.
If you can play with Gimp and 7-Zip and have any time, you could try it.
The original Icons are black at background. You can make the black background transparent.
But then it looks awful.

this gave me an idea, but i was wondering when you say alot of work, are you saying you have to do each icon seperatly? or is there a common one in the framework and then the widgets to add on?
thanks!
I think, we talk about the Icons above at the Bar with WiFi, Network e.g.
Or? If not, i must say sorry.
This icons are very very small *.png
Man of the icons are in the framework-res, some others are in the apps, too.
I want to do it, did about 20 icons. Now, I don't feel like to do it.
It's an awful and tiny work.
oh alright thanks, i thought he ment the icons on the 7 home page never mind!
I am talking about the regular icons, like browser or camera
oh lol wow sorry, well yes its possible, iv seen 1x1 wigets with the transparent background, but the rest of the icons had the grey/black background...
im assuming that every app developer doesnt have to make it or add it in so it must be in the framework.. il look through quickly see if i can find it
no luck sorry, but yes its definitely possible
Sorry for that! ;-)
This is definately possible.
Ahome is a program that allows you to do this and even change to any colour you want.
Just a simple process I beleive, it's a shame we couldn't take the Ahome application without having to use the whole program as it replaces your desktop a bit lke GDE.
hi,
ive had a look but cant seem to find anything and hopefully this is in the right area. ive of course got an xperia, running manilla 2.5.20121225. with the EnergyRom. Just wanting to know is their an app i can use to create my own background for individual tabs or if their is :s lol. just a simple cab/non-cab to have a nice set of tabbed backgrounds. thanks jim.
Has anyone inverted the color of the gtx theme. I like the look but i honestly wish it was black.
Anyone?
I've seen more people requesting this.
The 'problem' is that when you invert it, you will get nearly the same look as the original HTC theme.

Yeah but i love the original htc but i also love some of the fonts and design choices made in your original work.
A combination of stock and your work inverted would be in my opinion perfection. Not to say i'd expect anyone to go out of there way but i'd done a google search and nothing came up.
I think the main point for GTX is having a bright color theme and Black Text Font, which cannot be intefere with the White Text Font in Original HTC Theme. So, demand for the black GTX....? Not necessary
Black GTX? Try out the Dusk Skinsuite by grzegorz10!
Original Touchflo slider
Hi there!
Does anyone know where can I find the original slider icons (icons+slider background) from TouchFlo3D from Blackstone or any other VGA/WVGA device? I'm trying to find it, but all I have is some modified versions. I have a HD2 and hate the current Sense 2.5 slider look. I'd really love to have good old TF3D... Please, help me with that or at least tell me what to enter in the search engine (I've tried slider / icon / iconset / default / manila / stock etc. in every possible combination - nothing!).
Thanks...
