Anyone can help me to find .tsk (today screen) with Vertical and Horizontal mode?
Those in Microsoft mobile website is only made for Vertical mode :-(
Thank you in advance.
Arto.
the default bliss works well in both modes. I also made a few themes that support both. here is a link http://www.pocketpcthemes.com/profile.asp?ID=94874
hope this helps
kung fu hussle look a bit blurry
yes i know. couldn't get a better quality image that I wanted for the theme. sorry about that.
Thanks for the link for download.
Actually, I am looking for the simple one like what microsoft have on their website. The orange, green, and yellow themes. Unfortunally they are only in Vertical mode. The blue themes that come with the unit (O2 XDA II mini) is vertical and horizontal mode.
Could you create something like that?
Thanks again.

send me the image you want so I can make a theme for you. i'll make it so that it works in both landscape and portrait. bnycastro(at)yahoo.com
which software to use to make today screens?
I use Thememaker McDeb.
@ bnycastro, could you make some screens of Elektra?
or some Korean movies.
it would be better if you sent me the images you want used. then i can try and make some themes.
If you download the microsoft theme generator that will let you design a vertical theme. And if you download the SPB Extended Theme Generator from SPB it will allow you to create the horizontal theme as well. Works nicely and best of all its all free. Just make sure you read the instructions for SPB carefully to figure out how to do it.

Hey all,
I've been looking for a nice theme and have come to the conclusion I would be better making my own. So many themes out there are AWFUL. I like ones with a faded picture where you can clearly read the text. But this rant is beside the point...
The problem is I can't find how you make a theme that works in landcape mode. Microsoft Theme Generator doesn't offer the option. There is the SPB Extended Theme Generator but for some reason when i create a theme with that and try to apply it the device does nothing. The timer spins like it's applying it but nothing happens. I assume Plus themes are not compatible with WM5.
Does anyone know how to make a lanscape theme that will work on WM5/Wiard (whichever is causing the problem)?

also please try the pettal pushers vga theme...its brilliant...i just dont know how to get the dialer skin to chnage but there is enough info on that too on this site if u search...
if u like the petal pushers theme or the explode vga theme then please make a dialer skin for me and post it here...thanks in advance...no time to get into it after hard reseting my device literally every day(thanks to beyond tech crazy ideas...lol...good fun..its like i feel i have become a techie because of him...
also chk out my blog www.kjam.mobylog.com
I have found that almost all theme are not full screen when you switch to landsape mode...
Is there any way to force the theme to stretch or are there any themes that are better for landscape mode,
simply use your own image file sized 320px/320px as the background
robdes you can also make sure that the theme you get is landscape ready, I usually make themes that are landscape ready [for wm2003se and above], I use McDeb Thememaker as MS's Thememaker has long become stagnant.
for some examples click: http://www.pocketpcthemes.com/profile.asp?ID=94874
Where are good places to find Windows Mobile 5 themes? I did Google but with not much success.
Any PocketPC Theme will work. The only difference is that WM5 doesn't completely follow the themes instructions for colors [WM5 now uses basehues as discussed by ZeBoxx in the Wiki]. If you intend to use the device in landscape try to get a theme that is landscape ready I guess trial and error? Or make your own... http://www.pocketpcthemes.com/ is a good place to start.
Hey everybody,
I created some themes for the great Pocket CM (v0.15), feel free to try these.
Allblack.cmt:
A clean and simple as possible theme, black background, white letters, thats all
Apple.cmt:
White background and a lot of apple logo's, Somehow I just can't get this theme to work the way I want to, but as I don't want to use it for myself I stopped working on this one. Feel free to use these and please give me some feedback.
HTCTouch.cmt:
Inspired on the HTC Dailer plugin
And my personal favorites:
PimpedTouch.cmt:
HTCTouch with some cool b&w backgrounds
Silver:
B&W theme with silver accents, custom icons and nice backgrounds.
Update
Silver2
Because Pimpedtouch was a winner, and I liked the silver one, I've combined them into silver2 (how original).
Another update
Sunset
I wanted to bring some color in your life, so here a theme with some nice sunsets, but still usable.
Please post some screen shots.
1&2 = Silver theme
3 = allblack
4 = HTC Touch
5 = Apple (work in progress)
6&7 = Pimpedtouch
That's cool..Great work thx Pimpedtouch is very nice ...
Themes are (especially the "pimped") very clean and smooth. No hiccups, lol. Way to go!!! I look forward to more of your work.
Vga Themes Required
any chance for VGA Themes
Grea themes, thank you!
Pimped looks GREAT!!!! One question though:
Are these QVGA compatible? (I have a Treo)
These themes are all QVGA (240*320)
I can (try to) make a VGA theme, but I don't use those.
@ farehmani: which one do you want in VGA?
This is my first VGA theme.
Please give comments, I have a QVGA device, so I can't test this one...
Please upload screenshots too, because I'm curious how it ended
Some information, it has some Iphone-like buttons and backgrounds of dark cities (nightshots). Also a lot of transparancy, I don't know if pocketCM supports them all.
Please post screen shots. If they are like the pimpedtouch theme. I am all for them. That theme was hot.
The Blue theme on the pcm forum is my favorite..
love it!
I don't have a emulator, so I cannot test the VGA version...
can somebody please test the VGA version and post screenshots?
Here you go, VGA version of Dark City. Everything displayed (icons, letter, pictures), is just huge and literally spilling of the screen.
Is that the screen on a VGA (480x640) or QVGA (240x320)screen? Somebody at the Pocket CM forum said it worked ok, so I'm confused...

thanks
Can you post some screenshots in 480x640 for me please? Then I can see what to improve...

have u tried wisbar advance, this will help you skin ur device
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvance/
I don't know, how this prog should solve my problem with the white font,
Can you explan it? *g*
a skin for WHAT ?????
do you mean a .tsk for windows mobile ??? or for what software
jeah for wm6 the today screen.
this skins for wm6 are ".tsk"-files, google for ".tsk" and just put them in your windows folder of your ppc, then activate the new skin under "today". tsk files can have different colors for your today text.
you can also change today colors with "SKTOOLS" (no freeware).
so is there a way other than wisbar to make your theme white?
always wondered that
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/extthemegen/?de
with the Spb Extended Theme Generator I think you can change it, too. Its freeware. What thinks the pros?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364541
thats a good prog man !
- Problem will be the top/taskbar, because the most is of it no text, its white graphics ! and white on white=see nothing
or take this one: but i must warn you, its nothing for beginners
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386378
I am also looking for a white theme. Preferably plain white background and both bars white
I'm also trying to find a white theme, with black text.
It is easy to use a white tsk-file, so that your today screen is white. But then all the others is still different like (comm manager, phone dialer ect).
Is there a white theme - with a white comm mannager, dialer, contact ect?
Thanks
thats not possible, this are all different applications from different software developers.
So u cant change the look for all.
OK then we need to find white progrmas to add like

Download WVGA themes not RealWVGA because they are out of the screen
does anyone know of any other wvga themes ? most of the themes on that site look nice but are poor in daily use - the backgrounds obscure today screen text or the start menu text isn't properly visible ...
thought i would post some more wvga themes anyway ...

Choose one and replace the background You won't find any better themes, only themes with higher contrast colors (IMHO ugly)
Today I finally found out how to get a solid black skin: I chose the Xperia black theme, and then replaced stwater_480_800.bmp in the windows folder with a black picture.

thanks guys
