I have made a new theme for my new HTC Diamond, as the one I made for my artemis no longer looked right, as the image was stretched. So I have re-made it and decided to release it into the community, as there are so few VGA themes which look nice on the HTC Diamond
- It's both VGA and QVGA ready, as well as Landscape/Portrait ready
- There's a nice glassy/ripple effect on the start menu
- All of the system colours have been adjusted to suit
- Looks great in WM2003/WM5/WM6/WM6.1
- Really suite the HTC Diamond's looks
Download and more information HERE
If you want to link to this, please don't link to the executable file, but to the project page instead.
Please tell me what you think of my theme, I may make more in the same fashion if you all like it...
why have you disabled the tf3d.

Not everyone likes TF3D, I eventually got annoyed with it because the home page doesn't show tasks at all and seems buggy when it comes to displaying calendar entries. I've got nothing against TF3D, but at the end of the day I need a home screen that shows the necessities and anything that doesn't meet that basic requirement, no matter how pretty it is, is useless.
Use SecondToday !!!
However... can you make a theme with black glossy 3D Bars, like the grey you've posted?

1: I've not actually disabled TouchFlo 3D, as that image was captured from the Windows Mobile Device Emulator, as you can see in the screenshot, so it's not running an HTC rom with TouchFlo 3D in it.
2: I have not only disabled TouchFlo 3D on my actual Diamond, I have flashed a new rom to it without the blasted thing even installed, as I find it an irritating waste of RAM and ROM. There are things i'd much rather use my system RAM for than some pretty interface. As the guy above has stated, it is lacking in several key areas, and is such quite useless for more advanced users such as myself.

I don't quite understand what you mean here... Do you want me to make a theme with the same background, but with the upper and lower bars in gloss black?

Phonealarm with a mod of Macguffin's DoNotTouch skin
found here http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=4662.0
PS. There have been some changes in donottouch skin that are not published too.
The 2nd plugin is Pocketbreeze 5.3.0.6
have quite a few 3rd party plugins incorporated to pocketbreeze (weather panel, info reader, spb backup plus).
Unfortunately the mods that i did to get the feel is not published. So if you're interested i'll pass you the files, all i need is your email.
The 3rd is Batterystatus.
Of which have modified the xml to get this look and feel.
The top bar consists of:
mytools 1.5.1 - use this for battery uptime and connection uptime (when available). Have got some custom icons for the ok/close soft buttons.
indibar 2.7.0 - for the RAM and Battery meters, as well as the cascading start menu.
The bottom bar consists of Saman's WM5NewMenu.
i think that about covers it.

i prefer this today screen than PointUI's
Here is my today
wanted it to be clean and nice.
Hey
Wondering if anyone out there is/would like to make a skin for S2U2 to make it match the Pointui interface.
At the moment i have Home running, then when a call comes through S2U2 pops up with slide to answer. Would be awesome to skin S2U2 to match the Pointui look, would look great, all matching and what not.
Also, anyone know of a PocketCM Pointui look-a-like skin? Again this would look great.
Thanks!
I'd like a PointUI skin to match S2U2.
PointUI is not skinnable as yet but here's hoping....
When you lock pointui it gives it's own unlocking slider screen
Well someone made a TSK to match the PointUI. All you would need to do is extract the JPG out of the TSK. I was gonna get around to it but haven't been back to the office yet. If anyone has some theme editing software they can get a jump start on it.
Attached is the PointUI today theme.

Yeah buts its real bad. s2u2 is much better and handles incoming calls etc. So untill the Pointui guys improve the locker, a s2u2 pointui theme would be great.
Here's the images I used in the TSK, they were extracted from PointUI:
S2U2 "Pointui wallpaper skin"
Copy these 2 wallpapers to S2U2/GFX.
Yeah we are heading in the right direction.
What about icons and such?
i'll see if i can knock together an S2U2 theme for you guys, but it won't really be top quality, since i need to get to sleep soon. just something to appease the people while someone else who has more time to focus on it can produce a better product.
There's a great tutorial for modifying S2U2 in this thread here.
I'll get to working on a PointUI theme for S2U2 as soon as I finish setting up my Telus branded HTC Touch (Vogue 100)(P3050) for the 5th time. (screwed up registry trying to make TouchPal the default SIP) (Used PIM Backup to overwrite the last good backup with a barebones PIM from the last HR)
here's a theme
Hey Azimuth
Thanks for the theme. Just a few notes as you mentioned its untested, iv tested it and..
- There seems to be a white bar next to the SMS icon
- The Clock font is real choppy
- The slide button has white areas in the top corners where i suppose this should be transparent
- Is it possible to have larger icons for SMS, Emails and Calls, like the Pointui ones.
critiques
will fix
Azimuth21
thanks for producing such a nice theme for s2u2. Everyone is good apart from the slide button, i think the corners should be smoother...lol...
anyways for sharing...
I just created the PointUI Slider, I hope you like it.
And here's how my S2U2 looks like.
PS: The icons dont work.
Here's is a coloured version.
Here's how my S2U2 screen looks like:
Firstly, we appreciate that you guys are impressed by Pointui Home, XDA has some hardcore PDA fans and we know you're a tough crowd. We also know what kind of stuff goes down here, hi to all the Chefs out there.
We know that Pointui Home is limited in areas and other software is needed, but come on guys, you have completely raped the logo. Its been designed so its square, it would fit in nicely. That looks like Xenu is about to land.
If you guys are serious then step up. Contact us and ask, let us know what kind of sh!t is going down here. Maybe we can at least meet you half way so the result is decent.
We'll try and get a setting in to have the lock look for an external app like we did with 1.01b and the Music icon, mail, etc.. in the next build.
As you can tell from our forum Joel and I are pretty busy and given we do this in our own time after work so we might not get back to you for a bit. Please have some patience.
Also, please if anyone in these forums works out how to get something to work and there are people in our forum with the same problem we'd appreciate you hook them up.
Thanks cstewart for the donation and Dorothy sends her regards
Cheers,

This is a legitimate concern, it's your trademark and I would be peeved as well. However go easy on mushipkw, I'm sure his including your logo was out of admiration and not with the intent to desecrate it
You should include trademark usage guidelines on your website or completely forbid it.

Hi folks i have been trying to create a theme for throttlelauncher that has a glass look.
I am still working on it but thought i share it with you folks overhere.
This is what i got so far: Glass Theme beta 0.1
Here is a quick update, the numbers on the clock are now lighter and more visible also updated some icons and cleared some other stuff.
Glass Theme beta 0.2
UPDATE:Updated alarm icon and changed the clock numbers to white.
Touchflo3d_Mixxed_Glass_0.3
Youtube Video of throttlelauncher 0.92 Glass Theme
ThrottleLauncher and TouchFLO 3D are required
Download them here:www.throttlelauncher.com
All credits for the artwork go to their original creators.
I like it but I think you could of made the clock colors a little more lighter. Other than that It's good.
Looks nice
Thanks for sharing
this looks quite.....mixed up. It looks like you used about 20 different icon sets - some are darker / brighter, some are more/less glassy....try to find icons that match, like HTC Home / TouchFlo3D for example.
I like it but I think you could of made the clock colors a little more lighter.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I second that, you can hardly read that thing...
And please, if you call the theme "Glass", choose a proper background and choose the rest of the colors according to the background.
Maybe this helps.
regards,
Martin
As I said i'm still working on it.
i'll lighten up the number color of the clock and will try to get a better look in the next release.
Thanks for your comments, i'll be releasing a update soon.
Greetings, Gentox.
UPDATE:VERSION 0.2 IS UP FOR GRABS.
Here is a quick update, the numbers on the clock are now lighter and more visible also updated some icons and cleared some other stuff.
UPDATE:Glass Theme beta 0.2
Nice skin. Thank you.

Gentox, sweet app! I just found this today and loaded it up, looks great. Just to let you know, it works great on a non-phone ppc. I'll keep a watch for further threads from you. Again, noce program man!
Any plans on updating this for 9.4? If so thanks in advanve.
Hey everyone!
I decided to stop this theme!
its not fun enough for my taste.. a little too generic even
I might start working on some palm pre inspired skins like this for pcmc:
so stay tuned?!
UPDATES AS OF 4/13/09:
Dialer skin added (see post #2)
wm6.5 skin added (see post #3)
s2u2 skin updated (vga support added and graphical errors fixed)!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
s2u2 Preview:
*not everything is shown (one wallpaper, some of the buttons/sliders)*
INSTRUCTIONS:
-- backup original s2u2 gfx file if you wish to keep the original skin
-- unzip the qvga or vga gfx folder from the .zip file attached depending on your devices resolution
------ (excluding wallpapers, vga works with wvga and qvga works with wqvga)
-- there are different styles of unknown and nopicture callerid wallpapers, buttons, sliders and wallpapers within the zip
------ choose the one you want to use and name it to the correct filename (arrows.png, buttons.png, buttonl.png, wallpaper.jpg, nopic.png, unknown.png)
-- copy/move the gfx folder into your s2u2 folder and overwrite originals
-- you will want to disable the bottom bar and topbar in settings, and it would probably look best to disable the s2text for the dialer screens too in the lang file
FAQ:
Q: Are the call buttons/sliders hardcoded into a particular incoming caller wallpaper?
A: No, use whichever unknown or nopic wallpaper I have included, select either slide2end, slide2answer or simple answer and end buttons in s2u2 settings and you will see the sliders/buttons/wallpapers work independently from one another
Q: Will there be more FAQs??
A: Yup, as soon as I get more
WARNING:
I havent been able to test all aspects of the VGA version, but it should all work
If you encounter any issues (graphical) please upload a screenshot and/or description so I can work to fix it
Enjoy!

dialer and commmanager skins!
Preview of the comm manager and dialer skins:
..
**if anyone knows why in the dialer incall screen portrait the disabled pause and add call buttons are still htc-styled please let me know..
I skinned every image I found that corresponded to that part of the dialer but they havent changed!**
DIALER INSTRUCTIONS:
-- first note that it is a QVGA skin, i dont know what the most popular VGA dialer is
-- unzip cab from zip attached
-- uninstall any previous versions of opal phone canvas if you have them installed
-- install the cab to device, not storage card
DIALER KNOWN ISSUES:
-- Not everything is skinned in the dialer, and there may be some issues as it is impossible for me to test everything
That being said, I tested everything I could, and I cannot find any skin-related issues
I tried my best to skin everything but there are over 200 files so it may be that I missed some
-- Also, I am still working on how to change the font color for smart dialing portion of the opal phone canvas
If anyone knows, please post or PM me!
it is the opal phone canvas, and I think its done by registry keys but the cab I used didnt install any
**comm manager coming as soon as i figure out which version this is so I can make the cab..
any help pointing me in the right direction would be great! (its part of NFSFAN's 6.5 rom)**
here are just the files for opal phone canvas
only use these if you already have opal phone canvas already installed (the version WITH THE INCOMING SLIDER

windows mobile 6.5 skin!
Preview of the skin for windows mobile 6.5 users
This theme will *only* work if you are running WM6.5!!
INSTRUCTIONS:
-- download the .zip attached
-- unzip the folder "files to put in windows directory" somewhere so you can look inside it
------ the Titanium_240x320.cpr file fixes the date issue mentioned above, and the StartMenu_GridScene_240x320.cpr will change your start menu from 3 to 4 columns
-- choose which files you want to copy to your device, and do so
-- soft reset
------ you will not see the changes until you soft reset
KNOWN ISSUES:
-- some of the graphics of the lock screen have not been skinned, like the locked dialer for example
when I get more time I will skin these as well
Also, I was going to make a cab, but figured not everyone will be using titanium weather and may not want some files or 4 column start menu etc.
If cab is requested by some of you, I will make one, but its a pretty simple installation anyway
Enjoy!

Typical htctoucher Theme.Looks really cool.The Blue is allways royal.loved the arrow for ur s2u2.It would be cool if u add mort button skin.Great work.
Very nice icons for notifications! The slider needs a little touch up. Anyways, great job ! You need to update your theme color like blue to other colors. Blue is getting bored...
Amazing look and pretty impressive.
wow that baby is sweet lookin....please make a QVGA theme as well
Looks great and I am already looking forward to using it .
One question though, what formats will you make? WVGA?

looks great.
Yes, please!
When you get finished with all this, mind if I cook them into a ROM? possibly some minor, minor branding involved (just on the M2D and/or S2U bg if you'll let me do so)
Man.. you're sick.. in a really really beautiful way.
Where do you get all those graphics? The notif icons look reeeaaaallly good. But try using a different color for the bkgnd.. maybe red? or purple? or yellow? or green? o orange?
Looking good!!
wow! great response!
wow i only posted this morning and alraedy got a LOAD of feedback.. very motivating! thanks to everyone who has posted!
now i will try to answer all of them.. because i can (and i want this theme to have a lot of user input because ideas/concepts are best developed when bounced around - thats the great thing about this community!)

yeah i like the notifications too, agreed on the slider, gotta fix up the edges and the white lock icon.. forgot to do that before i flattened it and uploaded the preview
i think i will do multiple colors, but i am not sure how to implement other colors (should multiple backgrounds with one dominant color, or one background with a melding of multiple colors?)
i agree blue is overused, but to be honest, its my favorite color! and microsoft uses it a LOT (maybe i will bring in some cyan/very blue green as that is the color scheme in vista?)
what do you think?

See if you like it. It is White Metal 2.5 2013 for a 6.5 build. Tell me what you think.
Also including a different contact icon if you want it. Not necessarry but a different style in case you do not like the contact tab with the human outline.
I am running mighty rom Windows 6.5 with Manila 2.5.2013
I was not happy with the centering of the Calendar date on the tray icon-so I included a cab with the fix.
Facebook Tab. You must already have the tab in order to use this. I installed it from Meltwaters and then alterred his manila for tabs
lubbad85, you are my hero! I have been looking for this everywhere. I don't know why but for some reason I've liked this style of slider ever since I've seen it on another carrier's phone.
I installed it asap and I like how it works! It works like a charm, I love it. Great job lubbad85, you rock! The only thing I would probably do is just better the screen icons when you change to a different tab on the slider. Those stock white ones will do but I would just see if I could replace them with any other better icons. Just my personal opinion. Other than that, you created a beautiful slider!
Quick question, I'm running C0okie's Home Tab. How does that extra notification bar appear? (The one on top of the actual sider)

lubbad85, you are my hero! I have been looking for this everywhere. I don't know why but for some reason I've liked this style of slider ever since I've seen it on another carrier's phone.
I installed it asap and I like how it works! It works like a charm, I love it. Great job lubbad85, you rock! The only thing I would probably do is just better the screen icons when you change to a different tab on the slider. Those stock white ones will do but I would just see if I could replace them with any other better icons. Just my personal opinion. Other than that, you created a beautiful slider!

In the options for cookies home tab you can put the extra notification bar. I think under miscelaneous The bar is a bit redundant though.
Glad you like the slider. Give me an example of what kind of slider you really want. If you give me a direction I can build one. Manila is very forgiving. If you screw it up you have only to delete the manila file that you put into windows and the phone's ROM will build it back the way it was before the new manila was used.

I've been looking around in C0okie's Home Tab for the past 40 minutes and I believe I've gone through the whole editor twice and I still cannot find the setting which enables the extra notification bar. I feel like a noob or just looking for something that isn't there. I'm running v1.8.5.

I got it! Thank, yet again! As far as the slider goes, it works like a charm! I really don't have any other suggestions for it as of right now. Maybe later as time goes by and I think of something. But if you implement any improvements or make any changes to it please post it up, I will gladly test it out. Thank again!
lubbad85, I found a small little defect that you might consider. When I slide to a desired tab on my touch flo, I find that the tab icon I chose has a blurry icon. It looks like as if there is another lighter icon behind the primary icon. It's just a little annoying and tends to cross my eyes after a while. lol. Check it out in the attachment to understand what I'm talking about.
Nice work bro! Would you consider adding icons for Facebook and Call History tabs please?

See if you like it. It is White Metal 2.5 2013 for a 6.5 build. Tell me what you think.
Also including a different contact icon if you want it. Not necessarry but a different style in case you do not like the contact tab with the human outline.
I am running mighty rom Windows 6.5 with Manila 2.5.2013
I was not happy with the centering of the Calendar date on the tray icon-so I included a cab with the fix.

I found this slider skin very pretty and charming! Is it OK to cook this skin into rom? I'm developing roms for myself, but somehow the xda community convinced me to upload them to public xD

I like that idea. I have been running a Mighty Rom. But I will try yours when you get done cooking.

My ROMs won't be updated before August if someone doesn't find some critical bugs
This slider really fits the "old" Sense 2.5 skin, however it has got some images that could be a bit more polished... Ach, and some icons could be a little re-sized, because they aren't this same size. Anyway overall the experience is great! So keep up this wonderful work, first time that I like something that isn't made by ShowTime7.
right.

Thanks lubbad85, you're the man! Your work is greatly appreciated.
Hi there, I downloaded and installed the theme, but I dont know how to change the theme, i hate to ask but how exactly do I apply the theme? I tried Star->Settings->Today, but the theme is not on the list of available themes.
Thanks for your patience, I've only had the phone for a week or so.

You're going to run the .cab file from your storage card and install it onto your device when prompted to. Immediately after the slider is installed it is going to ask you to restart so the changes can take effect. You hit "yes" or "ok" (Not sure which option it gives you) Then, once the device restarts and turns on, the slider will appear and should be already installed automatically. You shouldn't have to do any other additional setting changes after you restart so the slider takes effect.
Hmm I installed all 3 cabs and it just told me "white metal 2.5 2013.cab was successfully installed on your device" (same thing with the other 2) but it didn't prompt me if I wanted to restart the device.
Any ideas why? this blue at&t theme is ok but this B&W Metal theme looks amazing.
Thanks
turn off sense

Hello again lubbad85!
Could you do me a little favor and add a facebook icon too? The meltwaters work is really impressive!
Just the sense tab

You just want the sense tab-in other words you already installed the other files neccessary for the tab? So just the tab icons?
If so here is the cab for just the tab sense icons in white to match the set. I cannot test it since I have not installed the control files for this tab.
