[Q] any help in changing graphics for maximum legibility? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

I just switched from Sergio's Sense 2.1 ROMS to the 2.5s as the older ones haven't been updated in almost a year. I basically can't read it due to the complicated backgrounds, low-contrast colors and grays, and so on. It's not only the cookie home tabs and the striped background on the clock, it's the blueish fill in the dialer keys, the rainbow stripes in the dialer images and so on. Can anyone point me towards clocks, backgrounds and dialers and so on for this Sense 2.5 to make it more visible for someone with poor close vision? I just want the largest letters on a solid background, no patterns, images or "themes."
Thanks in advance for any help.

Font colour and size on the TFL3D main screen

If you have a custom photo as your TFL3D background, the date and other infomation under the clock is too small and gets lost in the image. This makes it hard to make out. Is there any way of pinpointing these lines and making the font bigger, different colour or both?
there are several threads on this...you can look at kraize's app list and get some cabs that will help you out..

GTX black?

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

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...

[Q] Icon text grey oval background removal

Hey,
I'm looking for a way how to delete those ugly greyish oval backgrounds (or shadows) behind the icon text on homescreen. I know that some launchers already has it (TW 4.5 by Fr4gg0r), but I want to go with stock TW 3.0 launcher, because Fr4gg0r's is too slow and not really stable. I use slightly modified TW 3.0 Stock+, which is included in Simplicity 1.6.
It reduces the length of the text to one line. I also saw few launchers with the background deleted, but the text still shortened on one line. So I don't want that.
I want it to look like this on the right, not on the left:
img232.imageshack.us/img232/5285/sc20110629133850.png
(left: TW 3.0, right: TW 4.5 by Fr4gg0r)
Any ideas please?
I don't believe that noone knows the answer.
I browsed the .png files in the .apk, but I didn't noticed any files which belongs to the text background. I thought I'd just make it transparent so it would disappear, but the text would be still shortened.
Any idea, where the .png could be?

Some thoghts about themes

Hello,
first of all, many thanks to those who develop themes and makes our phones, tablets more prettier. They really do a nice and useful job.
Studying and using several themes, I noticed that a few of them are developed without taking a look on a major thing, namely readability.
In my opinion, a theme should not only look good, but it should be visible (aka readable) in all lighting conditions, especially the main applications, like the Dialer or the Settings etc. and so on.
The bigger, darker and bold fonts on a light backround will always be more readable in direct sunlight, on a weaker phone screen.
What do you think?
Regards...
(PS. Correctly: thoughts...)
