Hi Abusaaad,

It doesn't work like that, is not to copy the attached png. file in /windows directory, you have to photoshop this png over your current taskbar background and then overwrite it on /windows directory.

I wish to help you to do it and if you follow me you'll get it as you like, ok.

1. we have to find the "Name" of your taskbar BG in the registry ket, please go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Today/TaskBar//TaskBarThemeImagen and see the Value data ( that's the "Name" we're looking for)

2. Go to /windows directory and find that "Name" and copy/paste it on tyour SD Card.

3. Then copy that png. file ("Name") in your PC and post it here

And give a few minutes, I will do the photoshop for you, OK

I'd waiting for you.

Hi Puff601,

My bad, I'm sorry not to answer before abuot it, but I was trying to help to Abusaaad and Marck77 with the icon and I didn't notice your post.

That CHT Analogo clock is a personalize photoshoped version that I made for my self from the great LiuG's clock, so credit to him.

Here we go, Instructions,

1. find the attached cab. file and install it in your Device (not SD card) and do a soft reset,

2. Copy all the manila. files and paste/overwrite them in your /Windows directory

3. In CHT home edit mode, activate the analogo clock.

4. Enjoy it.....but please don't forget that a feedback is allways appreciated.

Best regards.

hey what are you guys using to edit manila files? i found a sweet set of clocks hand with swiss movement, glow in the dark according to the time, shows day of the week and a few other goodies. check out the screenshot.

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

i cant figure out how to make the "Su" and "9" closer to the center of the clock. i would also like to move the "AM/PM" to the bottom or completely remove it. can someone help me out?

O wonderful reached for a solution Thank you very much

You are creator God bless

Now the problem remained, when I put a background full screen icon disappear how to make my taskbar transparent

So that the background behind the icon so as not to disappear​
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ross202:
Do not despair, jdpl and Abusaad, I have found the discussion useful. So often someone raises a problem then, instead I saying how they solved it, they just say - don't worry, I have solved the problem! :(

And then they leave it at that. :rolleyes:

How does this help others who may have been striving to resolve a similar issue? Even more frustrating when you search the Forum and this type of Post turns out to be the only hit. :mad:

It may have taken a little while to get to the answer, but when English is not your first language you need to make allowances. I too have been looking for a way of getting Anastasia style icons on my Task Bar. When I used Dinik's Cabs it seemed to crash the header bar on the wm6.5 stock Task App and Calendar App so I had to delete the Dinik Taskbar. This might be the way around it so that I can complete the Dinik theme.

Anyway, this is a rather round about way of saying thank you for the public discussion - I'm glad you didn't go straight to "pm-ing" as much useful information would have been lost.;)

As always XDA is the best! So many helpful people. :D

clocks look good. contract rat_2665 for clock questions, imo. he seems to know everything there is to know about clocks. or ask in his thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=793155

not sure if this is trying to be passive-aggressive, but i will say reading pages of the same questions gets old. i understand, i used to be new. however, i am not releasing my mods i have now for anastasia as i know it will be swallowed up by these long conversations which really have nothing to do with this thread. additionally, i have had many pm/ email conversations and have made countless cabs for people who have asked. then you report back the answer. drowning out other people's mods is just not necessary.

anyways. for your taskbar. make sure you have the right sdcerts installed. additionally, you can always flash a rom (recommed energy's) with most of the big parts skinned with anastasia; easy to do and always works.

since we are doing this in this thread.

i need two things and with this i can make a cab that will work:

1- i need a screenshot of your homepage

2- i need the background that you will be using.

bonus information:

1- what do you find at the end of this string:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Today/TaskBar/TaskBarThemeImage

cheers.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ross202:
Hi jsmccabe68, not trying to be aggressive to anyone just trying to get across that sometimes these long discussions bring out useful information. On another note, thank you for your great contributions. I have many of them installed on my phone already. They are awesome.

I have Sdcerts installed and works with everything bar the Dinik Taskbar. At this stage I want to keep my Telstra stock rom so I just live without Dinik's taskbar.

Once again, many thanks for your work and no criticism intended. Sorry if I have given offence to anyone.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] puff601:
thanks, i think the lumens makes that clock look even better than it already looked. i did end up asking rat_2665, he is currently helping me on it. i wanted to do it myself but when it comes to editing manila files, im clueless lol.

+1 on energyrom, im on energyrom/dinik 6.5.x with cht 2.0. unfortunately nrg seems to still use diniks 1.7 theme which doesnt fully skin 1.8.5 or 2.0. so after installing dinik's 1.8.5 and a few mods from this thread, mostly yours jsmccabe, sense is fully skinned in anastasia. so thanks so much for your contributions man!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ross202:
Thanks jdpl@ for your Anastasia taskbar template. I have now used it to make a nice new task bar with full Anastasia look. Very happy and so simple:D:D:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdpl@:
HI Abusaaad,

Of course my friend, every time that you change your full wallpaper (HD Wall with skined taskbar) you will lose the glass icon because you are changing the tasbar back ground too.

Now if you like to change your full wall often and want to keep the glass icon, then you have to photoshop the glass icon on top of all walls you use Or if you don't mind, you could use only one taskbar with the glass for all your walls. ;)

Best regards.

Hi Ross202,

You're welcome my friend, I'm really happy that was useful my simple idea :D

You have to change the colour code for the text objects in the mode9 file. You can do that with mode9editor. To make it easier for you I attach the white clock numbers and scale I used for my transparent clock (these are the same as in the clock face). So you can change the colour and lay the glossy layer over it.

Taskbar

Hi Gstq10000,

The image was of my Taskbar.

I used HDWall to skin the original Taskbar then applied the Anastasia mod to it using Paint.net. My actual Taskbar is a combination of Tsowen's Taskbar and DJCedric's Blue Speaker Icon with Taskbar Volume Fix Cab. The object on the far right is the Touch X Taskmanager icon.

To align the Anasatasia "glass buttons" I used "Whip to Snap" to get a screen image then Paint.net with a second transparent layer so that I could overlay the buttons with the correct size/placement.

Probably a bit simplistic but I don't have the skills to modify the orginal Tsowen/DJCedric icons.

Abusaad:

You are correct, the Notification icon is in front of the Anastasia button but, to me, this is a plus as it makes the icon and the information that it relays to me, much clearer. Sometimes the brightness on the Anastasia icon is too much and it obscures what is underneath.

From the image you posted it looks as though you are using Dinik's Taskbar. Lucky you.:D Unfortunately for me, it clashed with my ROM so I could not use it. So, short of modifying every image in Tsowen's Task bar, using jdpl@'s approach was the easiest way to achieve the look I was after.

Good luck with your efforts to get the icons modified. If it happens perhaps they can be posted here for everyone's benefit.:D:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Gstq10000:
I think you misunderstood the questions, question 1 refers to the actual program, not the anastasia icon (which you provided a template for) and question 2, there is nothing 3-5 pages back showing how to make or any template to use for the windows icon/start menu... Maybe if you could, you could add these to your other template a few pages back, that would be fantastic...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Gstq10000:
Thanks for your reply, do you have the template of the taskbar without the image? as it would fit onot mine (once i install the touch x task manager)...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ChefChaudart:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdpl@:
Hi Gstq10000,

You're absolutetly right, I misunderstood your questions, I thought you were talking about the anastasia glass icon, I'm sorry about that mistake.

Now, the program that you asked about (the white icon on top right corner) is a Htc Task manager app which allow you to fast access to the programs that are running and you be able to reopen or close them. I attached a cab. file for install it (credit to Smaberg) but remember only works on Windows 6.5 (not 6.5.X)

Now, the second question still not clear to me, What exactly do you want?....A template with the anastasia glass only for the Start menu icon?

Remeber that the Start menu icon on top left corner is an integrated part of the taskbar and there is not way (as far as I know) to replace it overlaying anything else on top or BG.

Well, let me know how can I help you with, ok.

Best regards.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Gstq10000:
Thanks to you both, just what I was looking for...

I think I can remove the middle icons as I already have them with the anastasia look, just needed the start menu, windows icon and the task manager icon..

Thanks again...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdpl@:
You're welcome my friend.

I'm glad you get it right.

just In case you have any difference in either the size or align relative to the existing anastasia icons in your taskbar and if you need any help with that feel free to ask, ok

Best regards.

I hope i dont get criticized for this question but if i do I probably deserve it. So lets be nice now. I crossed over to nand android and am loving it so far. No freezes and everything works.

Modification to "Internet and Search" Tab

Hi jsmccabe78,

As I mentined in a previous post I have installed many of your wonderful Dinik style mods, including the "Internet and Search" Tab. I was wondering if it would be possible to have a modified Cab that deletes the Word "Internet" from the top of your Tab as it conflicts with the existing "Internet and Search" which also appears first and stays on the screen when I move the slider to this particular Tab. Hopefully the attached image will clarify what I am trying to say.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jsmccabe78:
mate,

thank you for the compliments; very much appreciated.

unfortunately, i do not know how to help you with your problem. my mods have been simply graphics (making the background transparent, adding color.) the text you have is beyond me (and not part of my mods). curious - did this start after installing something of mine? did this start after making the surrounding area of the text box transparent? if either of these are yes, we can figure out a solution of sorts i imagine.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ross202:
To be honest, I don't know when it started, exactly. It's just that I looked at your Internet Tab Mods and it had "Internet" as the title, not "Internet and Search" so I made an assumption. I tried removing various Slider mods that I have, eg Franwella's Slider, etc and none of them made any difference so that just left yours - at least that's what I was thinking - hence the request.

I have just now removed the only other mods on this screen - they were both yours - the Internet Search Bar and the Internet Thumbnails and it didn't make a difference. I guess I would have to do a hard reset to go back to stock and then reload one at a time. I have lots of Kurt Willems' mods on as well plus various other bits and pieces (about 115 cabs at last count) so I really don't want to do that.

I think I will just reapply your mods and live with it .... until there is a more urgent reason to do a hard reset. At least I know what is NOT at fault.

Thanks again for your contribution to my phone. Cheers. Ross:D
