Wallpaper transparency - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

In the most recent ROM I have installed it came with HTC Camera album. Now whenever I try to set an image as a wallpaper for the today screen, I don't get the option to set transparency because the image opens with HTC album. Is there a way around this and/or a way to remove HTC camera album?
Thanks for help

I ran into this issue when I first got my Wizard
Open "Pictures & Videos", select the wallpaper you want, hit the right softkey(Menu) and click "Set As Today Wallpaper" or something to that affect.
From there it'll ask you to set the transparency, thats how it has to be done, atleast the first time.

helped me
thanx

Font Color on The Wing, HTC Home Plugin

Hi, I recently got the wing and I've been doing a lot of changes to my wing, one thing I can't seem to find anywhere is if there is a way to change the font color on the wing(such as start on top and calendar and contacts on bottom) and/or change the font color for the HTC Home Plugin media player(It's light blue), the HTC Home plugin I got is from the Touch_It full version.
I also seem to have a problem with the cube from the touchflo that came from Touch_It full version too, it opens up when you press the touchflo button then motion from bottom middle of screen to top, but I can't close it sliding from top to bottom instead it closes when I slide my thumb from bottom to top again and after wards it can't open up no more, the animation when I try to bring back the cube is it closing from then on
Running a search on this site provided this :
Change HTC home clock colors!!
Try sliding your finger from left to right instead and see if the cube comes up that way.
my clock color is white which matches the white font on my wing but the HTC Home plugin music player font is in light blue when active which messes up the whole matching thing lol if i cna't change that I would chnage clock color + wing font color
the cube after first time i bring it down can rotate left and but can never be brought up again lol is there a way to fix it?
Check this out !!!
I think this is what you're looking for.

Yeah with RC mod you can change it to whatever color you like. You don't have to keep it white. You go to Font color and change Today Font color.
Okay. Well I tried.

Does anyone have a resolution for this? I really want to change the font and color of the song title, artist, etc.. on the Music tab of the HTC Home screen. The light blue is driving me crazy.

Remove the HTC Player you installed.
Install thishttp://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-audio-manager-v1-2-515-718.html
If that doesn't work..Download the HTC Customizer, run it, and download the Audio Manager through it. Thats how I got mine. Black theme, default player, and everything.

Did this work for anyone? I have exactly the same version installed with my Custom ROM and it is still blue. There is no way to installed because it was part of the ROM. Will new install overwrite the old files? Thanks for your help.
On the same note, has anyone been able to figure out how to change the way time is displayed "within the Music tab of the Home". Mine is always showing "time remaining", and I would prefer to see "time elapsed". I am able to change it in the Audio Manager, but the changes don't effect the plugin for Home. Please help!

Today Background Not Working

I just uninstalled cLaunch, a couple of Zombienexus themes and dialer skins, iContacts and Slide2Unlock. (Gonna reinstall and start fresh)
I'm pretty sure that it has nothing to do with it but as I am choosing a wallpaper/BG from Settings>Today >"Use this picture as the background"; It is no longer giving me a preview of the wallpaper with the slider for the opacity.
Did I delete it?
Does anybody know what I can do to fix this as all my backgrounds are washed out.
Thanks.
Anyone have anything on this? I'm having a similar problem. I tried to install HTC Home on mine and it locked it up. Had to do a hard-reset, then reinstalled the WM 6.1 ROM and it still doesn't give me the slider or the preview.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This was the first thread to pop up in a Google search of the site. After some further investigation, let me answer my own question...
Hi guys,
When I put a picture as the today's wallpaper, the picture is lighter than normal.
Is there anyway to fix it and get the real picture colors ?
Thx

If you set the image under settings/today, thats what you will get. For some reason it uses a transparency value (nowhere to change this here).
The best and easiest solution I have found, is to open the Camera, and view the Album. Browse to the image you want, click it and keep it pressed so that the context menu comes up, select "Set as Today Background...". This will show you the image, and allow you to set the transparency level. Set it to zero, and the image in the Today Background will look exactly as it should.

How do you set Background transparency on the Today Screen

I tried searching the forums but could not find how to set the transparency of a JPG or BMP on the Today screen when Touchflo3D is disabled. Currently I get a greyed out background. Previously on earlier phones there was an option to set the transparency level when selectring a today background but the Touch HD does not have this option.
I wold appreciate any help in solving this problem.
Thanks,
go to pictures and video, tap and hold the image you want to set as background and select on the popup menu "set as background..."
there you can select the transparency of the image
Knew it had to be somewhere

Great, Thank you. Tried in Album and Explorer but not there. Working perfectly now.

other ways to change home wallpaper?

Hi all,
I was thinking how would be nice if someone could add a menu option for viewing pictures - use as touchflo3D background ( or maybe some picture viewer app which can do this ). Because always when you want to change the background you must slide across the screen to settings tab, select the wallpaper option, click on no ( no default wallpaper ), choose the folder and finally found a picture what you want in that so small thumbnails, click on it and go to the home tab to see how it looks like. But specially in the women pictures you find out (after this ridiculously long procedure) that she has a clock across the face xD.
Correct me if I am wrong. The app with the thumbnails is htc album right? Why there is no possibility to see the image in fullscreen before you select it as wallpaper (as it is in htc album tab) ???
this is so annoying for me, what do you think?

Can't apply a wallpaper

I got a problem. I've installed Hyperdroid1.7 on my energy rom HTC HD2. But it seems i cannot apply a whole wallpaper. When i select a wallpaper from the gallery ... i see the picture on full screen but there is a little crop window you stretch to only see a portion of the photo. Any ideas how can i fix this ?
Thx
This is normal. Select the whole picture.
Try "Wallpaper set and save" from the market (free). It's a much better way of setting wallpaper and fixes the colour & resolution issues that many people complain about.
