That is the Version 1.2 (for QVGA devices only, optimized for Portrait Mode with Lanscape Support)

Here is the*** Download link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=J8IYA6VM

Before you download you may want to go to the first page of this thread and read all of the different layouts for this version.

(the link above is on that page under #4 in the Notes.)
[Windows Mobile Themes] jkrj524:
Excellent theme as always greatbal. Thanks for sharing.

Greatbal or mtkates or whoever can help, is it possible to have a one page contacts instead of 3 pages?

If you or anyone could provide the layout for a one contacts page for this theme, I would really appreciate it a lot.

Thank you very much.

Greatbal's Manilla 2D Theme

I made some more changes if anyone is interested. Added another MRU below Digital clock. If you look at screenshots the green arrow is MRU1 and the three small white squares are 2,3,4. The little white squares are not visible in the theme, nor are the mru icons. Looks cleaner this way. Green arrow is start menu setup in tools menu. Search this thread if you do not know how to do it. Also added the Samaurize Diamond weather icons this time. Added the Buttons for the speedial pages as well. Here are the screenshots. Credit goes to Greatbal for the theme and Beyond Invisible for the weather icons.

[Windows Mobile Themes] fm02ppc:
Where is the download? Thx!
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
Sorry about that. Here it is. You have to have Greatbal's Manilla 2D installed first then overwrite with these files.

Any chance of getting a cab for just the "2 MRU's' on the right and making them visible?

[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
I can't make cab files, don't know how.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
Just copy the 2 files in the zip files into your spb mobile shell directory. Just tested it and it works fine.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Odlaw:
Sorry I meant a zip like the last version.

New Background for Greatbal's Manilla 2D

Just rename .zip to .dat

Thanks to CerebusTA for converting the bmp file for me. Of course thanks to Greatbal for creating the theme.
[Windows Mobile Themes] drew2000:
Here is a s2u2 portrait wall paper.

I tried my best to line up the tabs the best I could using the original Poorlyduck's Ultimate Suite wallpaper for S2U2, cutting and pasting the tabs into the wallpaper background that Bob_55 so graciously supplied. Just a little modding, all the credit goes to the aforementioned gentlemen. Thanks for all the hard work to bring us this sweet theme for our phones. Lastly thanks to Kieth Dupont for the background to go in spb mobile shell with the M2D theme. Thanks of course to Greatbal for the M2D theme for the spb ms 2.1.
[Windows Mobile Themes] sh_tony:
Hi, I am using Greatbal's skin version 1.2 but would like to change the analog clock to that of the Manila 2D which only shows the "clock hand" and the small digital clock display. Anyone can help to advice?

Also my calendar tab's don't seems to show the days of the week as:

M T W T F S S

Instead it shows as follows:

n e d u i t n

Anyone can help me on this? Appreciate!
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
Try to move the spbmobileshell.txt file to a different location and reset to see if that fixes the calender problem. I am looking into the clock now........let you know in a little while.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
For the clock deal:

You need to upload your qa.layouts.dat file, there a ton of variations to that theme. That would probably be the easiest way. Just rename the .dat to .zip and attach. I'm pretty sure I can get it working for you.

BTW do you want the digital clock like mine or like Greatbal's? Mine is on the left with the analog clock off centered.

[Windows Mobile Themes] drew2000:
Never say die

SPB better hope not because that will definitely effect their future sales if there is not hot themes to pimp our phones with. The modders here have given life to a product that funtions well enough but always has needed help graphicly. Thanks for all your work Dupont......Mod on..
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
I agree with you about spb for sure, hopefully after the Manilla 2D craze wears off Greatbal will be back. His skins are always the best IMHO, no offense to other skinners.
[Windows Mobile Themes] sh_tony:
Hi keithdupont, thanks for your fast response and help.

Actually I prefer GreatBal's one. I am using layout A and the preference for second tab should be "Calendar" instead of "MRU". Like your weather as well. Can you help to modify it for me? here you can see my qa_layout files.

As for the calendar, I tried moving the spbmobileshell.txt files elsewhere and reset but the problems still exist.

However saw your "Omnia meets Diamond" and quite like it as well. But would be good that it is on layout A and the second tab is Calendar.

Thanks for your time and help on this.
[Windows Mobile Themes] jmorton10:
I have a question that's driving me nuts.

I have two XV6800's, both set up exactly the same with the version two Diamond theme.

I want to have a 4 week calendar showing below my black digital clock. In one phone, I have exactly that. In the other, no matter what settings I change, I only get a 3 week calendar even though there is clearly room for the 4th week.

Does anybody know what need to change (setting/regedit etc) to change this??

My other question is, I only need one contact page. Is there a way to disable the other two??

~John
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
sh_tony

tony here are the files for layout A like greatbals Manilla 2D analog clock. I have not figured out how to fix calendar problem. Post your spbmobileshell.txt file and let me look at it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
As far as the calendar: look in settings, mobile shell, professional, put calendar on auto. If that is not it I am not sure.

As far as contact pages if you are using diamond version 2.0 what are you going to do with the 2 dead tabs?
[Windows Mobile Themes] jmorton10:
I tried that, but it didn't work.

~John
[Windows Mobile Themes] jmorton10:
Is it possible to change them into MRU tabs??

~John
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
I am sure you could but that is beyond what I can do.

Sorry
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:

[Windows Mobile Themes] snoopy75:
Hi, I've been using Layout A, but I think Layout B would be more suited to my needs. Is there an easy way to switch to Layout B without re-copying everything over again? In other words, which .dat files specifically are different between Layout A and Layout B? Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
I think the qa_layouts.dat and maybe the qp and/or ql_bkg_now.dat is all you have to copy.
[Windows Mobile Themes] snoopy75:
Perfect, thanks! :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] hossann:
Hi i have Greatbals Manilla 2D installed. then your files. but only the Home and Main soft key can be used. The icon above these two keys cannot be used. Also i cant even change the screen by sliding across it. Please advise where i go wrong. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
What device/screen resolution are you using? post screenshot please
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
Make sure you have the setting on Classic and Analog, my setup will not work on the other because of the digital clock size

And yes is classic and aanlog. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] keithdupont:
Do you have SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 or 2.1.2 installed? It does make a diffrerence. You need 2.1.2 to work with this theme the best. If that is not your problem, Re-Install SPB Mobile shell try to install this theme with a fresh install of mobile shell. I know it doesn't make sense, but some of these suggestions have made a difference for me with some themes.

[Windows Mobile Themes] kbywg:
Sounds like you have the wrong version of SPB mobile shell. If you click just to the right of it does it work? Are all your other icons lined up correctly? If not then you definitely have the wrong SPB vers.
[Windows Mobile Themes] hossann:
Hi, i am using MS2.1.2. Everything line up nicely. Only the top left corner icon not working. I just found out that after i install the spb phone suite....all icons not working again (other than the "HOme" icon). Maybe somthing wrong with my phone.

Square version of Manila 2D skin

With many thanks to the "skin specialists" for their incredible work, I'd like to make one of my own contributions to this wonderful forum - a 240x240 version of the Manila 2D skin - for the treo lover in all of us!:cool:

I didn't make any gfx mods, just tweaked some xml dat files to make things fit better, so this isn't perfect. Here are some notes on my changes:

NOW - only Analog clock variation was tweaked; removed alarm/missed calls links, but missed calls is already in the main tabs anyway.

WEATHER - removed title and time/status in top bar; used a different gfx dat file for the icons (smaller to fit better) that I got from another skin - can't remember which one or who did it...sorry.

CALENDAR - removed title and shifted things up to allow more room for info.

PROGRAMS - removed title; only room for 2x3 layout due to gfx size - so make sure to select only 6 items in the config screen.

MRU - removed title; this one doesn't look as nice as the others due to gfx size, and I wanted to keep all 12 items - still finger-friendly, despite the bit of overlap on the bottom row.

CONTACT main - kept all 3 (vip/pers/bus), but each with 2x4 layout (could have fit another row if I removed the title and top bars, but wanted the title).

CONTACT detail - removed top bar info and moved contact name there; shifted things up and rearranged a bit; I'm trying to put a button bkg behind the "Open" link, but it still works without one. ;)

Special thanks to greatbal and jopiej for their outstanding skinning work!!!

Enjoy!

Just copy the files contained in the zip file into your \Program Files\spb Mobile Shell folder...after making a backup first of course.
[Windows Mobile Themes] slavaman:
Thanks a lot!!! It works just fine! :D

Remove traybar - possible?

Hi guys,

I'm using the wonderful black theme for spb mobile shell from this thread (thanks to the creator) and was thinking about removing the launcher bar (the tray bar at the bottom holding the main buttons to today/programs/weather...) since I want to use SPB Mobile Shell as pogram launcher mainly.

Is it possible to do so? Searched the forum but didn't found information about this...

Thanks

[Windows Mobile Themes] Tiberium:
This sounds really idiotic but I must ask. I just gotten the MOGUL and updated with wm6.1 and bought SPB mobile shell. Saw this theme just had to have it. It seems the NOW screen on the first page I don't see the favorite person and the calender launch menu at the bottom. Also the middle of the screen is a calender rather than the email, sms messages, missed call icon. Am I doing something wrong or are those manilla 2D screen shots rather than the SPB mobile shell screen shots?
[Windows Mobile Themes] jmorton10:
Go into the MS setup options & change the now screen from Professional to Classic

~John
[Windows Mobile Themes] Tiberium:
I'm really sorry I did that already but it doesn't seem to change anything. It seems the professional and the classic is the same. am I missing a file or doing something wrong? All I did was install SPB, then download the theme pack and unzip everything into the SPB folder in program files under my HTC Mogul.

I don't know if I miss something but in the forum I haven't found a reply to my problem. The diamond theme is awesome but one thing on my glofiish doesn't work (I don't know if it is a problem only for me) when I navigate with my fingers through the pages sliding left or right everything is ok but if I slide inadvertently my fingers up or down the program closes itself and I have to launch the now screen again. It is possible to disable the gestures up and down?if I want to close the program I have a button mapped for this...any ideas is appreciated...:)

If you are talking about exiting the shell, hit the end key.
