Android-esk Taskbar - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hey guys,
Today I just ordered a TP to replace my Vogue that was running a Custom WM6.1 along with the ability to boot up into Android port that was developed by DZO in the Vogue thread.
One thing I liked about Android was the slide-down taskbar. I was wondering if anybody is working on one to replace WinMo's Taskbar because I believe that was one of the most under utilized features in Android.
One cool thing to that is, if anybody is working on one is planning to to, is to incorporate a transparent messaging/contact center into the slide down task bar.

musicman247 was thinking about making a mock android ui.

New Interface.....ideas?

Hi,
I've developed quite a few themes in Wisbar and WAD, including the most authentic iphone skin and the vista theme modified from a theme posted here.
I'm looking for a new challenge and would love to have some ideas for a unique interface. Any ideas are most welcome.
if someone has a drawing or sketch to share, please do so that I can make and share with everyone!
Cheers
go for Manila
go for manila - TouchFlo2
My idea is WM7 Theme (not sure fake or not but its nice )
thanx for the suggestions
how about something new? we have a wonderful cube by Slither that has the potential of being moded into manila.
WM7 is for gesture based devices so that's out of the question till we have gesture based hardware!
How about retaining the same look and feel of our current WM devices but allow flick and scroll/gestures and transitions?
Like scrolling today items vertically or horizontally using flick and scroll. And when I click messaging for example, it will have a nice transition before it shows up. In other words, it's like rewriting the WM shell.. hehe.. I'm just dreaming..
We dont need any hardware... wm7 uses the camera to recognize the gestures... wm7 will work for any wm6 device...
wm7 ui is very cool to see
+1 WM7 kicks ass ^^

Couple of questions regarding themes and programs- finally customizing my Touch Pro2

Hi Everyone,
Been going through the threads and really love the work everyone has done to make these devices look great. I'm finally started to customize my device to truly make it my own and had about 2 questions regarding programs and themes.
1) I downloaded the S2U2 program that was posted in a clean-up cab (thank you GoodThings2Life and A_C) and my home screen in Touch Flo has as one of the buttons saying lock on it. When I click on that it locks the phone and clicking unlock brings up the stock unlock screen.
How do I change that to S2U2 so when I click on it the Slide to Unlock feature comes up?
2) I love the look of the bottom icons that some people have and would like to change mine to something else a little less obtrusive. What exactly is that bar (tab?) called so I can do a search for them? I'm just looking for the set and not a whole theme since I'm happy with the theme/background on there now.
I also just wanted to say thank you to Cobbs for some of his great wallpapers and At0mAng for the Black Bars cab.
Thank you very much for your help with these questions.

(REQ) Default Latest WM Taskbar Icons

Hello guys im looking for the Default WM White Taskbar Icons from the Latest 6.5.X Builds the rounded one.
Ive search almost everywhere and post the same thread in Themes and Application but i think the best place is here and some chief just can extract them and post like a single cab.
Im tired from all this COLORFULL Icons and i like how simple and clear look the default white one.. so i need only them.
Will be great is someone can post them here like a cab.
Regards
Your requesting icons, so moved this to general discussion as not related to rom development

windows mobile layout is very ugly!

Hey peeps,
I've been using hd2 for around 2months now and I love it. im still using the uk tmobile 1.72 stock version and im pretty content with it tbh
i love to customise, tweak and experiment there are endless possibilities thanks to the devs/chefs on this forum who will keep this dying breed of a device going for as long as possible.
forgive me for my stupid question but in regards with the windows mobile part of the device which is very ugly and boring are there any themes for a different layout? maybe just change the background colour ? or do i need to install a non stock ROM? im really happy with sense & touchflo3d which i think is fantastic
secondly i didnt want to ask this but im starting to pull my hair out, can anyone tell me how i go about changing the 'notes' program icon?? simply because i do not know where the program is located on the device? i can select it as a quicklink thats about it also im using jwmd icon changer
if you get a second to answer i appreciate it
go to settings -menu -all settings -today and choose a theme from the list.........
for your icon notes should be under office in jwmd......
hope that helps ......

[Q] Expresso bar ?

Hi I'm looking for an expresso bar mod for my desire, and so far have not been able to find one, wondered if anyone can point me in the direction of one, if one exists that is, and yes I have used the search feature extensively.
The problem is I'm looking for one that just changes the bar on the home screens and a matching straight lockscreen bar, not too bothered either way about the notification screen, but don't want to change any icons on the notification bar as I have already used the circle battery mod, and would like it to stay the way it is, also needs to be for a 2.09 rom base, and no colour mods, I wan't the button press colour to stay at the standard green, not bothered wether it's skinned in the black or carbon either.
Would be very grateful for this indeed, been looking for one for months on and off now.
search for 'BrightSilence Espresso' and you'll find one of the best ones (IMO) or failing that you could use HElauncher from the market as there is a Slate theme, which is basically Espresso but no Sense Widgets...so it depends what you wanna do really
Hope i helped somewhat
