On my device it shows all but one or two

I noticed this but it didn't really disturb me, when I clicked on it I got a message from the reader telling me it's a png with wrong ext, should it be corrected? I click yes and it's OK.

See the thread above and my report for embedded pic. If you still want to embed the procedure is:

Go to user cp, click pictures and albums, click add album, give it a name and submit. Now open the album add a picture, upload and save. Click on the pic and copy the BBcode below to clipboard. Return to your post and paste ET VOILA! you have embedded picture ;)

Hey, I charge much more than a beer for a grand tour :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Thanks for your effort you seem to be seem to be my only enthusiast so far from this thread. Well at least the Transparent Frames have been downloaded altogether more than 2000 times so somebody must at least find them a little interesting

I plan to make icons for all the settings and folder in the windows system, hopefully we'll figure out how to change them eventually, and it would be great if a rom chef would cook them into a rom one day.

I knew about the bbcode but didn't think of the album thing but it still bugs me that they manage to keep the icon name when you download pngs from the ireflect thread-

I have been experimenting with the album function tonight but I couldn't make it work like I wanted it to. I had in mind to upload all the icons which would be great because I work on different machines and then I could have synchronised all the machines against the albums. Unfortunately the album seems to have a limit of a hundred pictures

I bet you do but I was thinking more like two friends going pubcrawling at night that kind of a thing where you could show me all local dives. But I could pay you for a grand tour of the sights earlier in the day. ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Hi Teacher

Of course many like your icons, they just can't write :D

In fact I dreamt of just creating frames that in some way could be added on the existing icons without having to edit every icon, so your icons are 2nd best:p

As for the plan for a tour in Tel aviv, since you are taking me so seriously ;), the only thing I'll let you pay for is a bottle of mineral water.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
I have never seen a RealVGA icon so I made one
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
hmm quoting myself----

:D:D Problem solved!

I looked at the source code of the page of the iReflect thread and found out what they did. Their pngs were uploaded to sites like Imageshack or Dropbox on the net. I uploaded the RealVGA icons to Dropbox and now you can just rightclick the icons and download them with the correct titles.:)
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
Are you going to do that for the "extra" icons you uploaded as jpgs in the past? There are some I wanted to use, but never got around to asking. :p
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
I never use jpgs I always use pngs but xda developer's bulletin board system changes them into jpgs automatically, but back to your question. I will not go back to the old posts on the Androkkid themes thread and edit them, but it shouldn't be necessary I will publish all the icons on the first page on this thread. I will edit all the iconposts on this thread so you can download them with the correct iconname just with a simple rightclick.

[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
Thanks. Got one more for you. My phone includes an XM radio app (AT&T $9 subscription). The icon's very nice. Since I have an online streaming subscription, I grabbed the Sirius/XM app from here & love it. But I get this nondescript icon that would never let anyone know what it is. I'd love a nice icon set for that one.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Will this do, or do you want a classic retro radio kind of thing?
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
I'm sure someone will appreciate Howard Stern icons. :p I'll take something else, thanks, if you don't mind.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
For many people Howard Stern and Sirius Radio are synonymous but I got the point;)

Here's a new attempt, tell me if this fits the bill?
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
Yup. Fits the bill & fits the Bill. :D Thanks. BTW, since they've merged, some channels have disappeared. AFAIK, the remaining channels are receivable by both XM & Sirius subscribers, with variations depending on plan (which includes a "family friendly" plan option).

Cheer up, You are not alone, WE are all alone and together we form a community :p

BTW, are you going to release your beautiful Dirty Metal icons?
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
thx for encouraging words;) To draw icons is fun, to check them out for "black and white holes" on the other hand is a lot of boring work,:p but I finally started last night and I got through half of them, hopefully I can finish tonight and then publish them
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Great news :D

BTW I've returned to IPhoneToday for a while ( see this new thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=633618 ) and your icons are more than needed...
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
Looking forward to it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Dirty Metal Frames finally out now!

The Dirty Metal Frames icons are out now at post#3 on page 1:D

Thanks Krasky, I forgot about these :) @ Teacher : you should maybe regroup these extra icons in the first page ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
When I have made quite a few new ones I'll put them together in a second zipfile.

In the meantime I'll see if I can fill out the icons you need-

[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Btw thank you yourself, I love to see screenshots where people use my icons:D And I also see how the icons look, and which ones I need to improve. like I see that I want to make a better Internet Explorer icon and I'm not pleased with the phone icon either.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Here's some pics on a simple background
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Great screens:) nice to see that these icons that I spent a lot of time making are used. I noticed that you have made two of your own; Clock and Handy Shopper, that's great. Are you satisfied with these or would you like me to make a version too? or if there are other icons that you are not pleased with just give me a holler:D

Icon alternative

Here's an alternative version of the Internet EXplorer icon:
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Hi Teacher

I did the handyShopper very simply by extracting the icon with resHack, as you can see the resolution is terrible ;) The clock is only the frame template and the display comes from the system. You missed the calendar hehehe, I removed the number in the middle to allow to see the date and day that also come from the system.

If it isn't a bother I'd like handyShopper and some folder icons like settings, applications, storage card and games. A reminder that on my QVGA too many details look garbled or unrecognisable ex. the car profile and opera mini ( I chose the opera icon instead of the mini which is very original but for a bigger screen :( )

Another change to your icons i did is cropping the empty space around the frame: your icons are 96x96, after removing the empty space the size came to 87x87 ! so now they appear their actual size.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Smart! good for you.

I have never used resHack, hmm must look into that.

I don't quite know what you mean with the calendar icon. In the launcher (Ifonz2) I used before I started to use Androkkid and still use from time to time, the weekday and date automatically show up "through" the icon with no adjustment necessary.

I'll get around to all of these icons:)have been a little busy the last days, just now I'm working on new versions of car profile, calc and Opera Mini.

Ps Soon we might have to call this thread Tito's Iconset indeed;)

I was away last week, glad you still have time for new icons, these last are excellent, thanks :)

I'll see if a link to your thread can be added on the iPhoneToday thread so many more can enjoy your work :D
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Thank you:) I`ve been ill for some days and then I was busy installing Linux on an old laptop. It was old and full of viruses, spyware and malware. I couldn`t get it to install Linux, it turned out in the end that there was something wrong with the install DVD. I burnt another dvd and it installed Gnu/Linux Mint KDE straight ahead and now the old laptop is flying and I don`t have to think about viruses and such anymore:D

You got it all wrong ! You should have given antibiotics to the laptop and installed Linux on yourself :p:p:p

Can I get another version, maybe the same radio with a different color? I stole this one for the FM in my Tilt2. I use Power Radio. So, I'm back to needing something for XM. :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Themes] NRGZ28:
I just have to ask... you really don't see the crappy, jagged looking edges on pretty much all the icons in your set ? It makes the icon look so crappy over a transparent background... You really don't notice that ?
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
I'm working on some other icons just now but a quick colour change I can do if it helps you then I can make a new radio icon later
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
I completely agree with you I'm very much aware of this. A very good example is the radioapp icon which was referred to here.

There is a reason for this, which I have no solution for at the moment.

I have used and I am still using the launchers Ifonz and Androkkid. Icons that contain any gradient transparencies will show up with "white holes" for every semitransparent pixel.

When you shrink photos and drawings the resulting smoothness is completely dependent on semitransparent pixels, which is no problem against a colored background like f.eks the ireflect icons

(ps I made a few myself a couple of weeks ago, see below, it's relaxing to make ireflect style icons because they are so much easier to make)

The point is that every pixel in my icons have to be completely nontransparent and so jagged edges are unavoidable. You can test this yourself by indexing a graphic against a transparent background and see the resulting jaggedness.

it is a long struggle with handcolouring some pixels and wiping out some for every to make them as "good" as they are.

I would really love to see somebody making them smoother if you cannot use any form of (gradient) transparency and also given the fact that they should work against any colour in background wallpaper. (I'm not being ironic here I really would like to see that)

This is also why I say in the beginning of the thread that I don't think these icons are as beautiful as f.ex the IReflect icons.

What I love about them though is how they function and integrate into scenic wallpapers when in my opinion the Iphone type of icon make a square hole in the scenery, mine are still uniform unlike generic windows icons, and they glide through the scenery when you swipe from screen to screen in a beautiful way.

But I'm a relative newcomer to graphic work and I'm still trying hard to learn the ins and outs of the wonderful gimp

So...if you could do this better I really would love to see it;)

Here we go another crappy icon;)

Another phone attempt
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
That'll do just fine. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
Hi NRGZ28

I am really surprised with your choice of words to express your criticism at the hard work of someone else. A little constructive comment would do without using the "crappy" word twice and if you really don't like it, it's so easy to go elsewhere...
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
I wasn't overjoyed by his tone, I'm not asking for any money or credit here, but he's got a valid point I've had to sacrifice a lot of "smoothness" for lack of a better word in order for these icons to work everywhere. If I didn't have to consider the "holes" gradient transparencies make in some launchers, it would have been so much easier to avoid jagged edges. I've included the radioapp icon as an example. First you have the icon as it was published by me jagged edges and all and then a smoother version.

The ironic thing is that the smoother version is so much easier to make, it is about the tenth of the work of that which goes into the jagged version. But you should have no doubt about it; in the launcher of choice for me(Androkkid/Ifonz2) the smoother version would be absolutely rubbish.

I tried to PM the guy and he just said that he didn't believe me that there was nothing to do.

I don't pretend to be a great graphic artist so I asked him for a hint for what to do, but he never answered.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
He obviously wasn't aware of the problems with the icon display in Androkkid. But there are many other ways to express criticism, and his was rude.

Anyway continue to do what you do best :) , nobody 's forced to like it.
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
I agree with Tito. And, so far, you've had one such complaint out of how many hundred dls? :rolleyes: Maybe he was having a bad day. Or maybe he was disappointed he couldn't use the jagged version in his next ROM & took out his frustration on you.
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
Thanks for your support guys I got a little riled up there for a moment but I'm over it now. I just couldn't get over that a guy who has such a long track record on the forum felt he had to be so rude. I do look forward to the time when I don't have to consider gradient transparencies anymore.

[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
"What rough beast slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?"

Poetry and poetical language can be very inspiring. ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] tito12:
A little search brought me to the whole poem, it's so dark but so beautiful!

Here for the sake of other readers (who said forums are shallow?)

Turning and turning in the widening gyre

The falcon cannot hear the falconer;

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;

Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,

The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere

The ceremony of innocence is drowned;

The best lack all convictions, while the worst

Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;

Surely the Second Coming is at hand.

The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out

When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi

Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert

A shape with lion body and the head of a man,

A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,

Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it

Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.

The darkness drops again; but now I know

That twenty centuries of stony sleep

Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,

And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,

Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
[Windows Mobile Themes] teacher1960:
I thought you might catch that, beautiful isn't it?

Yup. The Light in the darkness.

Here's an icon for Google Translate I don't really know if I like it. I guess I have to wait awhile and see if it grows on me.:p

Maybe it's because I made all the graphic material myself for once, that I don't like it so much. I usually base my icons on photographs or logos or some such
[Windows Mobile Themes] kraski:
Hi, Teacher!

Things are pretty quiet in here. I'll have some more requests for you, soon. :p I keep finding new interesting stuff for my phone.

I'm kind of curious if others use the transparent framed icons in the same way I do. It didn't take long for me to figure out that changing icon coloring every time I change themes is a lot of work, one at a time. So, I determined that the "dirty metal" frames work better for me across a variety of themes. I use the gold framed old phone for my contacts & the gold frame iDialer icon for contact cell number, if I'm using old phone for home/work for the same contact.

I was just thinking that there's an easier way to handle icon changing, as long as icon names stayed the same across sets. One possibility would be a developer creating an app that would copy icons to the folder the user uses for icons used by Androkkid, so that when Androkkid recycles when changing themes, it'd pull in the new icons as well. The alternative would be for Androkkid to allow specifying an icon directory on the same settings page where themes are changed. Either way, if no custom icon is specified, Androkkid would have to still use an app's own icon.

My friend Diamond can't start even replace with another batray, is there any solution, tq b 4:(
[HD2 General] jscsltd:
Hi,

Hopefully one of you guys may be able to help.

I've just upgraded to a HD2 from my old Diamond. It seems ever since I've had this handset (3days now) there's a status icon always showing that I have a voicemail but when I check I have none and neither do I have any messages in the 'voicemail inbox'.

Tmobile have re-created the voicemail box which cured it for a few hours only for it to come back!!!

Tmobile are suggesting that my SIM card is too old and needs replacing. Before I go and do that has anybody here had a similar problem and maybe found a solution?

Cheers.
[HD2 General] djchubbs:
hiya,

did you get this sorted? im having the same issue
[HD2 General] jscsltd:
Voicemail stuck

It seems (I think) that if I leave myself a message and then go into voicemail, clear it but stay on the line until the voicemail icon disappears then its cleared but only till the next time I reset the phone and then its back! Best I've got so far...and haven't got the SIM replaced yet but I think that seems doubtful anyway!!

It seems it may be a 'feature' of the ROM I have (1.43) but I'm a little loathed to update the ROM as its tied to Tmobile. What ROM are you?

Cheers,

John
[HD2 General] Nomgle:
I have exactly the same issue with an Unlocked Toshiba TG01 (originally on Orange) running Windows Mobile 6.5, on T-Mobile UK.

It's rather annoying :)
[HD2 General] NTOP:
Give your service provider ( t-mobile, orange, o2 ect) a call and there can reset your voice mail box.

There will leave you a message and then you hear it and delete it and restart the device and the icon disappears

Hope that works

:)
[HD2 General] blanco360:
I have this problem now - I had a voicemail from my old provider and didn't pick it up.

Now got a new provider and the voicemail icon is stuck. I can't get a reset though as my current provider doesn't even offer voicemail!!

Any ideas?
[HD2 General] davispe:
Same Issue

I've got an AT&T HTC Pure and I use YouMail.com.

I have no saved messages, no current messages. I've tried adding a message and deleting it and stil the phone says I have 1 new voicemail.

I have even hard-reset the device and no change. Oh, yeah, I also tried changing the voicemail info. back top AT&T. Still says 1.

Very frustrating.
[HD2 General] Lat1n0_R0m30:
I have a different problem.

Whenever I get a voicemail I cannot access it by calling my number.
