I'm very new to all this modding thing, so probably been asked before; can anyone tell me is there a way of making the top Taskbar transparent?

Hi. This is my first post here. Got my HD for about 2 weeks ago and love it, but one thing that bothers me is the status icons: Battery, signal wlan etc.
Now, on a device that looks as stylish and sleek like the HD, it's a shame to have those icons that looks like 1979....
I have the S2U2 app installed and really like the icons that are visible on the unlock screen. Is it possible to get these (or equal) to be on the top bar all the time?
Can i somehow skin this myself, and how? Where are those icons represented on the device?
I never tried it, but I think you can skin the taskbar with this software:

Thank you for your answer. But isn't there already something out ther that is a bit more easy? I have seen other HD screens here with changed icons. How did you guys do?
(BTW, i dpn't know i "skinning" is the correct term. I want these icons to be visible INSTEAD of the old ugly ones. I don't want something running "on top" of the default icons. I'm looking for a REPLACEMENT.)
i believe you're looking for something like this?

Thank you mouki_9.
I will try this.
I'd like the top bar from the S2U2 settings - but I can't find any way to do that...
Any ideas?

yes, I like too the status icon displayed on s2u2 unlock screen, I'd like have them on tflo3d too
As WM 6.5 seems to have transparent bars on the top and on the bottom...
Do you think this would be possible with TouchFlo as well? Is it a feature that only 6.5 supports? Also, would this involve fiddling with Manilla or WM itself?

not sure if it's exactly what you you're after but you can check out the no curtains cab on post 6 of here.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=489531
this removes the top curtains within touchflo but not the top bars - you might want to try Wisbar Advance for something like that though... do a search for Lakeridge software/wisbar advance.
i was wondering if theres is anyway to change the htc icons of winmo6.1 or any theme

I'd like to know this too please.
Which icons?
I'd like to change the Start menu program icons.
Sorry. I don't know a way of doing that.
I know how to do it on my TP2 - I wonder if there's anything like the icon changers for that for the Snap?
Anyone know?
I would like to know if anyone knows how to make the taskbar and slider on sense 2.1 transparent, so the background can look like the example on the HDWall thread...

HDWalls will do that. It doesn't actually make the taskbar and the softkey bar transparent, but it replaces them with a matching piece of the background image. There's a checkbox in the configuration settings that says "WM 6.5 Taskbar & SoftKeybar Skinning"...just check that and the app will include in the cab the extra pieces to make it look like you see in the example there.
Now I know what the guy in the other treahd meant, when he said, he doesn't want to create a cab with HDWall every time he wants to have a new background. This really sux but it seems to be the only way to get rid of the softkeybar etc....
still looking
i have a stock att rom with manila 2.1 and wm 6.5 and i am still looking for a transparent taskbar too. so far i havent found anything to make it transparent but i did find UI Tweaker to allow me to change the color to whatever i wanted. after installing some taskbar icons mine went from black to grey and this changed them back without affecting my icons. it lets you change a whole bunch of your color settings throughout your system and so far no problems with my phone.
Hi,
I have a ROM with Windows Mobile 6.5.5, and it has a smaller topbar (With time in it and stuff like that) and a bigger bottom bar then the older version of Windows Mobile.
It's almost like the one of HTC HD Mini, but it does not have the glass effect, behind the softkeys, its just black.
Is there any way to get a glass effect exacly the same as in HTC HD Mini for the bottom and top bar?
I have seen it already in other ROM's, so I think there must be a cab/theme for it aswell, but I can't find it anywhere.
Or maybe someone could make a cab?
Much thanks in advance!
Greetz,
Joshoon
You need to find a theme that matches what you are looking for.
Maybe Dusk Themes?
Also get's rid of stock windows wait cursor and replaces with a Black scolling bar.
