change windows buttons

Hi, sorry to post but i don't really know how to search for what I'm after
I just want to change the windows keys at the top of the bottom of the screen to solid black instead of the shiny grey gradient.
Can I directly change a graphics file? and if so where is it?
Thanks for your help

Is this not possible, I had a go with the Theme maker program, but then when I output to WM6 it retains the shiny black bars that I would really like to have in solid black

I think maybe you should search for a skinning program? or a skin that does what your thinking of.

Can you post a screenshot or picture to show exactly what you mean?
Or do you mean, bars like these?
{
"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"
}

yeah, how did you do that, there is no vertical gradient, i like that but i would prefer it all black
what skinning program will do that? does the program have to run in the background all the time or is it a one time operation to set the skin?

Hi:
After I installed a solid black theme, which I use, now the top and bottom bars appear solid in all themes with black bars. You could give it a shot. Not sure if it will work, but it will be easy to test. Just install the theme I attach here, then try another theme with black bars, and see if it works . For some reason it worked on mine.
Another way is to use a theme editor (I use Themegence), and use black bars for WM5, that too makes them solid black.
Anyway, I hope this works for you

Cheers for your help guys
I used UI Tweaker in the end, it did exactly what I wanted, then I used some other things I found on here to hide the top and bottom bars,now it looks perfect!!

i'll look into making a black/gray/white version
edit:
made it, check the attachments.

I like the dock. How do I set the center icon to be the phone application without putting another icon on top of it? I'm not sure if the issue I'm having is clear. Basically, when I assign the center button to be a shortcut to the phone, it makes me choose an icon for it. The icon I choose lays on top of the phone icon that you have in your image file. How can I fix this?

i provided an blank icon that you can pick

I downloaded the BlueDock.zip file. In it, I see 3 Images:
BlueDock.png
BlueDock_nobutton.png
screenshot_2.png
I don't see any blank icon. Am I missing something?
Also, May I suggest that instead of using a blank icon, can the colorful phone Icon be provided seperately and used on top of the noicon image? That way when you scroll through docks, the phone Icon will scroll with the other icons. Also, this would give the option of not having the phone be the center Icon on every dock.

just noticed the first zip had the wrong file in it! added now!

Where u get that wallpaper?

Nice docks, I'm using the blue one now!

[Q] [MIUI] Theme Question, can't read text in Google Navigation?

Sorry, I wasn't real sure where to put this. The screen shot pretty much says it all.
I'm using the theme here, for MIUI, yet this happens on all the popular dark themes I've tried. It's very hard to see the gray text containing address info against the gray background with the popup results menu in Google Navigation.
Is there an easy fix for this? Thanks.

I've always had the same problem. Never found a solution except to use light themes.

LOL??? thanks for pointing this out.. i just spotted this in my theme and totally missed it.. so im going to work on this right away!!

Certainly, it's like this on a lot of themes, even the default on.
I know it's part of the framework, but I don't know what specifically needs to edited to change this without affecting the rest of the theme.

Have you tried this:
(I'm using a French rom, so all the terms I'm going to use may be not the good ones in English..)
Go to Settings, Applications Manager, search and tap on Google Navigation in your apps list, then de-activate Compatibility Mode.. It worked for me with some unreadable white on white texts..
If it doesn't work (sorry about it, first.. ), just re-activate Compatibility Mode (just in case)

Really nice, thanks

This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for- thank you so much!

I just installed the theme and I love it- I have one suggestion though: the status bar. I find it a bit unclear to see which icon stands for what, I think you could improve a bit there. The rest looks absolutely stunning though, it's my one but. =)

hey Eddy_putra,
first of all thanks for this theme, love it!
i have some complaints/suggestions:
- my dialer buttons are not themed as in the picture
- when I it the menu button in launcher that menu isn't themed
- in settings, not all of the icons are themed but that's because of the rom especific icon. but the icons are not aligned and change size everytime I enter settings menu.
- I think the wifi strength bar should have 4 bars like the default bar
- as mentioned before, it should be more clear what buttons are on/off in notification menu
- a little while ago, i was making a backup with TB and i noticed that, when trying to select which app's to backup, that the selected icon is the same that the unselected one. i had to change theme to make the backup
please take this suggestions in consideration when you update the theme. really like it!
once again thanks for your work!

nice looking theme thanks:good:

Please help. I am trying to run your theme. So, I have downloaded them, but the theme files are named to ".mtz.zip". So, I want to know what is the proper way to open these themes in MIUI GB 2.3.2? So far, I tried renaming them to just ".mtz", but that didn't work for me and unzipping them just opened many file folders.

Hi, amazing theme, just two things I don't know how to do. What is the font you are using? And where can I download that 3-stars logo? Thanks for answers

Thank you very much good sir

build.prop edit is much better. It will keep the status bar.
The other methods are nasty hacks that run a permanent service which keeps killing the system ui process. This also removes the status bar.

which things i have to change in the build.prop?
@teheda:
there are two ways, one using apps like full screen toggle and LMT or the build.prop edit, as arman said i will try the build.prop
about the font i have no idea

anyone knows which line i have to edit?
thx

The build.prop edit works great. But, make sure you install lmt or similar before you do this;
Download a build.prop editor from market, I use this
Create a new entry and enter this information: qemu.hw.mainkeys
Then set the value to "1"
Reboot, you got fullscreen, now get used to using your lmt or whatever you prefer.
Just to confirm, make sure you have installed an alternative to your newly hidden buttons r you won't be able to control your phone properly!

Hi Guys! please, there`s a way to install Pie Control without root on jelly bean?
