Vito GoodWin - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I've searched here and found only one other thread about this amazing piece of software. I believe this could out-do any other launcher on this site with a few new developments from our fellow members. From what i see, it is easily skinnable, however, i have no experience with that type of thing. This is why i come to you. I think we could make some amazing skins for this and i think all you need to do is edit the shell.bmp file in Vito's "skins" folder upon installation. I think it's got great potential!

oh, and the other thread (contains one theme and more info, great start!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349264

its pretty much just like pointui, which should be skinnable soon, plus its free

i used it for a while nice but buggy and sometimes slow

i've given up looking for a better interface than the HTC Home Plugin.

You're going to have to be much more specific.
V
i like your sense of humour
i want a tool that can create custom skins for the universal
xdatime - you still have to clarify what you want to skin.
Today screen, phone, start bar, incoming call, start menu etc?
V
All of it, i want a new smooth skin for each of the things
not the phone but today screen, start menu etc
You probably want to investigate wisbar then.
V
Do i use my pc to edit skins or is it to go directly on the phone?
i would rather use my pc for skinning jobs

I'm no chef or app developer. But, with all of the kick a$$ development that is going on in the xda-devs community, I would have to say its only a matter of time before we see a lot of the diamonds features emulated on our current devices.
Who knows? It's possible. However, it relies on accelerated graphics, so that tosses any devices with the current "video driver issue" right out the window as of now...
Anyway, since this thread if intended for speculation, it has no place in Development and Hacking. Also, resize the picture or host it somewhere, please don't paste the entire, oversized picture directly like you did.

IDEA: iPhone WebApp Viewer

I have been experimenting around with iPhone Webapps and they work amazingly well on my HTC Diamond. Infact, I use a few of them regularly. However, the screen isn't to big, which cramps some of the great features. It wouldn't be that hard to make a app that has a browser built in that would resize/warp the view to the point were it can be used very well. I am not very experienced in making apps such as this, but I do know enough to know that it wouldn't be that hard to do and would open up thousands of new 'apps' to lots of people. I have put together a hard picture of how things may come together below.

Using Diamond as a windows-app-launcher?

Hi
I found several things about using the Diamond with a windows pc (e.g. diamond as webcam)
Just a crazy idea: Is it possible to use the Diamond to launch apps on my windows system?
Just thought about something like "Objectdock" oder "Rocketdock" (as a fullscreen app during a ActiveSync-Connection).
If you know anything about the possibilites or a solution for that I would be pleased
Edit: I just thought about it months ago. There was only different - I wanted to use a real touchscreen display with 8" and often is used in car-pcs.
Just for fun therefore I created a layout:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
All in all I would over my GFX-skills to create skins/themes for such an app!
Regards!
Great Idea! I know some apps like that from my apple-devices but for windows mobile it would be much better (customization and so on )

Request: Nice Wordpress App

Hey developers,
on http://iphone.wordpress.org/ those iPhone idiots are showing off quite a lot. "Worlds most elegant phone" blablabla
Well, is here someone who could develop a very good Wordpress app for WM? I checked already http://sampath.wordpress.com/moblog/ and quite a lot of other stuff, but none of them made me happy.
This must be possible!
Just found this one, looks promising.

Hi nestleomega,
I have worked in “Pocket sharp”, it’s easy to handle. Did you ever use it? It may help you out.
I currently use Diarist 2 (freeware) and Cellspin (paid), both work great on my wordpress blog!
