Thank you very much. I've been waiting for this update from you. :)

Will try out this background. Otherwise, I will use the diamond bg option which you will include in your upload.

Anyhow, will wait for your files to upload so I can try it out. Thanks a lot again.

can u make it so that the today screen got the same color scheme as the gmart ??

it's weird .. that when u get out of the shell u got a totally diffrent color in front of you.,..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ldostang:
this looks good. i was/am working on a theme that combines greatbal's 2.0 bottom tabs together with mkates wm7 theme. but still in the very early stages. i was doing the same thing with adding the start button at top to access the programs tabs and made changes to have all tabs to one page (guess we think alike). well i'll contine working on it. will be something a little different than yours.

Hi - I've been trying to find a theme here that I fall in love with in this thread but it's truly overwhelming. In my attempt to search here I've found that I really really like the clock from one, the layout from another, the icons from yet another. Is it as simple as picking the dat files from each and making my own theme? Or would it be possible for me to show one of the wizards here what I like and they could put it together. I have a sprint mogul (titan - qvga)

Any help is much appreciated.

anybody? bueller?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jeffrey2000:
That kinda looks like one of my original concepts which I never made anymore, see the quick (mspaint) concept from like half a year ago. Don't look at the bad quality / dutch crap it's mspaint and I only used this as concept. So it was just a very rough presentation where things will be placed but not the actual graphics. I originally wanted to make it just like that but wouldn't be practical with that sidebar cz of the too small 320x240 resolution so wanted to implement all straight into start bar/menu.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jeffrey2000:
Yep the first step is just to put some .dat files together which you like, then change some of the graphics, then change the complete layout and eventually a complete new theme :)

Once you have a complete new theme you could build a complete CAB file which will uncompress/copy the files automaticly to the default program location or just make a simple ZIP file of all ur .dat files if it's too much info...

Alltogether lots of reboots to keep you busy ;)

Color is ok, but... don't have Profiles, time, calendar and tasks at home!

I don't like themes that have just one button only for wheather... it is a waste of space... I think

color changing diamond fire

i've edited the "diamond fire" background so that it changes color with your theme! enjoy!

just insert the files into your qp_bkg_now file. remember to encrypt the files
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] msuzippy:
Has anyne tried greatbal's diamond theme on a treo 800w yet? I followed the instructions and now when I open SPB MS2.1 it just hangs and never opens and shortly after seems to lock up the device altogether, forcing me to soft reset.

I was giddy when I found his theme and now I'm so frustrated.

Thoughts?

My setup

I created this skin and just thought i wanted to share it. i started off with greatbal's v2.0 diamond theme and adjusted it to my liking. now screen includes a feel of wm7 from mkates and helu theme

apart from the changes visible from the images below, features include: (sorry no landscape)

1. status icons accessible from now, launcher or contacts screen. (did away with two main screens to only have one main theme to include all tabs*. launcher screen is accessible by clicking on start)

2. glossy program icons and added mrus on now screen.

3. moved the round circle in status icons more center.

currently it only has 1 contact screen. still planning on making changes.

thanks to the following people

weather thanks to beyondinvisible

analog clock thanks to luigi and heefy from there helu wm7 theme

status icons and glossy program icons thanks to greatbal

tweaks and help thanks to gagaza and luigi

* one thing that may be a bother to you. to make all the tabs and status icons work, i had to do a little cheating. since bound areas are rectangle and cant be angled, at least not that i know of, i had to split the clickable area for the bottom tabs and status icons. pics are 40 pixels high so top 20 pixels are clickable for the status icons and bottom 20 for the tabs. i have been using this way for almost a week and really has not bothered me at all. i use my finger to click and works almost perfect. (this is one thing im planning on changing but i like having access to status icons in all tabs.)

You know the drill: download, backup, unzip, overwrite.

edit: fixed profile icons for non spb phone suite users

if you move the spb contacts icon up next to the start button, it wont be accessible because the taskbar is not part of the bound area. i had to make it part of the tab area for the start button to take you to the launcher screen. sorry about that.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] solo24:
I really like this theme, the Blue and Pitch Black inpreticular. I do have a request though. DO you think you can either remove the analog clock or make it so when you use the slide gesture it actually goes to programs, contacts,etc instead of just switches between the two clocks. I know you have moved on to different projects but would really appreciate it.

Another request i have already posted but never recieved a reply to is, if it is possible to show a PALRINGO notifcation on the now screen. I know that is a stretch but thought i would ask. Thanks in advance.

SoLo
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ldostang:
sorry about that. since i started with greatlbals, i forgot to change the icons. its fixed now for non spb phone suite users.

Hi, very nice !

I was borred by the black and white themes but you make what I love !

I've some issues, could you tell me if it's cause of my config or bugs please. (use it on WM6.1 emulator).

1 - it's not the same selection area on the bottom 5 icons : the 1st and 2nd are availaible on half bottom and an white circle selection appears, the 3rd, 4th and 5th are only available on a half top clicking on it and a full green shadow appears (cause of my green wm6.1).

Hope my explains are good...sorry for my English !

2 - The sliding on each pages is strange, there's no a carroussel way.

Others things are not bugs, only my wishes but I'll try to make it if you don't plan to do it and if I could !

a - landscape support (plan by you)

b - icon to go to the Main menu (but need to erase one, maybe email cause I don't use on my P3600)

c - 3 pages contacts, with 16 contacts/page, or 4 pages with 12+1/page

Thanks for your job, I love this theme, waiting new releases !!!

Very good job !!!!!

Can I post requests here? Please point me in the right direction if I'm wrong, but I did a little looking around and couldn't find another thread.

Anyways, I'll pya for someone to make a me a nice slipknot theme for my mobile shell 2.1 on my tmo wing

For those of you who don't know who Slipknot is, it's a band and they're coming out with a new album that I'm really excited for, the way I have this imagined in my mind is to have my icons on the mobile shell, be the band members and logos

It needs to be a dark theme mainly black with red trim text etc..

I have a few specific images i wanted to use (this band wears masks and they change every album)

I'm only going to post the links to these images, as some users might find them offensive, their masks can be a little gruesome

really nice that to post it in the

wrong thread

:cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ldostang:
Point #1. That is what i meant by it might be bothersome to some people. ideally i would had wanted this:

but because spb ms doesnt allow it (at least i dont think. i searched and asked around to a few people.) i was left with doing this cheating to make it work.

.

As far as the different selection method, i'll try to see if i can make the change.

point #2. dont know what you mean by it. it seems to work with mine. goes from now-launcher-contacts.

for the changes you asked for.

a. will work on it as soon as all changes and fixes are done.

b. click start to go to main menu.

c. one of the changes coming. remove the heading to add another row of contacts and add 2 more speed dial pages. its been my original intention to have 3 speed dial pages, but i still had not implemented it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toniolol:
Thanks ldostang for your help and your explanations !

if u r talking about the digital clock, its not as simple as dropping in the diamond clock file. u would have to do some editing to the qa_layouts. but the file i am using for the analog clock is qa_clock_now.dat and the diamond digital clock is file qa_dclock.dat.

haha yea. found that out after putting the qa_layouts in there. it completely changes. love what you did but i was trying to keep the diamond looks while having the sms icons in the bottom row and the normal digi at the same time.

my Mod

Great layout, bro. Hope you dont mind. I have mod your layout. Its flow through concept. Sliding from right to left will go to:

Home>Weather>Menu>Contact-1>Contact-2>Contact-3, then Home.

Have put 5 MRU on HomeScreen below the clock. There's some personalised item which you need to edit. Namely, lockscreen Have the word Singapore, Orchard Rd near the weather. Change it at:

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Date" Name="Date"/>

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Text" Name="MyCity">

<String Name="Text" Value="SINGAPORE"/>

<Font Name="TextFont" Face="Tahoma" HeightPxl="12" Bold="y"/>

</Plugin>

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Date" Name="Date"/>

<Plugin Class="Spb.LSP.Text" Name="MyTown">

<String Name="Text" Value="Orchard Rd"/>

<Font Name="TextFont" Face="Tahoma" HeightPxl="10" Bold="n"/>

And also delete the file qa_weather_description.dat to not show the word Singapore at weather page. Hope you understand. See screenshot:

Have also include today tsk. :)

Thanks to you and all that items/ideas I have used
