..::: Yellow Flower :::...

Did u get bored from the all black-in-black Diamond theme graphics…!!!

Here is a new wallpaper for it, which will fairly bright up your device…(especially if u have a black device _like mine_)

P.S: these files R not final (due to a tiny little problem in the sub-menus wallpaper) but I guess it's not a big deal…(we R waiting for greatbal to fix this problem)

Anyway here u go…

change only color?

Hello,

I currently have a modified version of Black Diamond theme which was modified for 3x3 contacts and other stufff....

I really love the white theme and would like to change my current theme to be exactly the way it is but only change it to white colors as in the White theme recently updated...

Any idea how to do this? I would be very sad to lose all the changes I have made by installing the .cab directly.

Thanks a lot for eventual answers.

Thanks again, I found the matter and now I'm just trying to make some coorection on shadows selection and other little things.

Just here, you can see he mix between Greatbal D and littleRain Wm7 modify by myself :p
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aruppenthal:
Its looking awesome. I really appreciate the effort in combining the themes. I kept ending up with the same issue that you had. Im thrilled that you found a way to fix it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kytto:
waiting for your skin toniolol =)

in my opinion:

- top bar shouldn't be visible in the "clock page"

- sould be included an weather icon in oposite side of the volume one
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toniolol:
Thanks all who made the themes and all peoples who help me...

Lol for the weather, just done at 9 px of the left, opposite the volume !

I've to modify some shadows and find how to make a grey/with top bar just under the top status !

Just one screen :

It's strange, the icons on the bottoms seems to be to high for some pixels and I have no idea how to fix it...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Synergie:
Heffy's idea also seems to incorporate RSS feeds on the main Now screen... I REALLY want that! Right now I'd completely turn all my today pluggies off if I could somehow have the headlines from Insight scrolling on the now screen.

Real Diamond Wallpaper

Well, I'm probably not the best for graphics but I wish to bring my little contribution to the wonderful works people made here.

So I create very simple coloured realy diamond wallpaper.

I'm not sure the format is good (and I even don't know how to insert them into the phone. Anyway I'm sure someone here will make the corrections.

Below are 7 different colours in BMP format inside a ZIP and you can see them put together just for the preview (inside ZIP all files are single BMP).

> violet > sepia > light grey > green > dark blue > white > dark red

Hi azzmbm. I rewrote the Diamond theme with major and minor fixes, which includes accomodating colored backgrounds without the problem you're facing. Will be posting it soon, might call it Diamond Theme 1.2

No prob. :)

While I'm at it, I'd also like to improve on the Weather graphics you provided(similar to HTC's). Can you please post the psd files of the weather icons so i can improve on the mask file? The weather icons have that greyish look on the outside of the icons. They're not evident when using a black background, but with colored and light ones, looks ugly. :(

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ivtec20:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OnceAMatrixMan:
I have a few general questions - hope nobody minds:

1. Can the contacts tab button be used to start something like icontacts or one of the other contact managers? the small text of MS contact page(s) makes it almost unusable I have finally come realize.

2. Can the order of the Messaging options be changed? Can some of the options be removed? I didn't see anything in the registry.

3. Does 2.1 seem a little less stable to anyone? Seems like I'm resetting mor now
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] faustt:
Hey guys. Pretty new to SPB shell and PPC phones in general so be gentle. :D

Right now I'm using Robodads 2.1 PointUI theme. It basically does everything I want it to do. I was looking through this thread and came across these screens. If I could take Robodads theme and replace the bottom shortcuts with volume, sms, etc... that would be nothing short of amazing. unfortunately I have no idea what I'm doing at all. lol.

As I said, I'm pretty new to all of this. I was wondering if someone could point me in the direction/thread/post etc... of how I would go about changing the bottom tabs to something like this. Like which .dat and .xml files should I be poking around in? I don't mind doing the work and learning all of this, but I have no idea where to start at all.

The original poster gave credit to aaron1124 on SPBclub, but I couldn't find a post relating to this at all. Little help? Thanks!

SPB Mobile Shell Beginner's Guide
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jakkrith:
OnceAMatrixMan

1. Contact Page (Speed Dial) very useful for me. But I don't like default contact manager program. So I have change it to my favorite program such as FingerFriendlyFriend or Inesoft Address Book

you can change contact manager program by edit Registry:

Step 1. Goto HKLM\Software\Spb Software House 2\Spb Mobile Shell\Menu\Root\Organizer\Contacts

Step 2. Add New String Value

Name: File

String: \Program Files\Finger-Friendly-Friends\FingerFriendlyFriends.exe

Or any program as you want.

2. If you not need Messageing you can disable it in Spb Customize Menu. This menu is system default you can not remove any items under this Menu but you can add New Link, New Files in it.

3. At this time MS 2.1 not stable some time it Hang.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kangmas:
You can either edit the spb mobileshell registry ( tutorial here somewhere ) or the easier way is to install a 9 tab launcher cab. ( also somewhere here ) then your customise menu will have games and favourite icons. ( Sorry, I dont have that cab file ) :)

** Here is the link for the cab file posted by Jakkrith.

Yes, of course.

I changed these icons a little bit today (only for landscape). Maybe you have to optimize them.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OnceAMatrixMan:
Jakkrith,

Thanks!

1. I should have been clearer about the speed dial page... What I actually would like to do is have the contacts tab button select icontacts or fingerfriendly. I have not seen that yet.

2. Thought so about Messaging. Hoped I could have eliminated a few sceen taps. oh well

3. Well at least I'm not the only having issues with 2.1.

Thanks again. I admire all your work Jakkrith.

Hi:

Thanks so much for the beautiful theme. After reading through the whole thread, I have found that it is the one which most suits the style I am looking for. I was wondering if there is any layout available exactly like layout C or F, only with MRU page? I truly have searched the thread, but am only able to find the layouts available in the above quoted post, I have seen alot of reference to other layouts though, so I am thinking I have missed them.

Your help will really be appreciated!

Thanks again!

Where Is Robodad?

Quite a number of people are also using Robodad theme. I uses few themes and changes it every few days since using Spb Mobile Shell is flexible on this.

Wonder Robodad could continue enhancing his wonderful theme. Haven't heard from him for a very long time.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wyldelee:
Thank you all for your work. You are a wonderful community of developers and artists on this forum. Very impressive work and so much creativity.

With all these wonderful themes to try out, I was wondering if you uninstall MS2.1 and reinstall every time you switch themes, or do you simply overwrite (except where noted such as in Greatbals Diamond theme)?

I an currently using Dredd67 PS3 theme which I love ......thank you.

I thought I would give a few of the others a try also.

thank you,

The fonts are too big for german-based layouts or icons...

eg: "Verbindungen" (greatballs theme) -> "Verbind" (your theme)

And I have a black bar on the top of the screen in the submenus.

@greatball:

How do I change the titles in the menus...

It's CONTACTS and I want to see KONTAKTE

PROGRAMS - PORGRAMME...

Is it possible to get german titles there?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] matthieup:
Greatbal,

thanks a lot for your awsome Diamond theme.

I have one problem though. I'm using layout F and i strugglr to tap the PhoneSuite icon to select the profile?

Can i easily change the size of the 'click' zone in one of the files?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] marfanuk:
Most of the themes are 320x240. But if you search this thread there are some 240x240 themes
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] marfanuk:
