WM6 true black glossy theme?

Hi all, I accidentally spaced out and posted in the universal forum cause I seen Kyphurs links, but Im thinkin a few here might be interested due to the use of the zombienexus dialpads on the wm6 rom, plus it just looks good.
Im trying to find a true black theme that is glossy, either they look more gray and are glossy, or are black and flat, but I have noticed when I go to settings/today, and like switch from the gossy gray to the flat black, there is a split second where the true black is glossy, so if the setting could be found I imagine it can't be too much to fix it.
I don't have much stuff handy to mess with it, I did open a couple .tsk files with winrar on my remote pc, and got the images, but the config is unreadable to me, if someone knows a bit more I'd appreciate it them looking into it, in the meantime I'll try to get it figured out.
I also noticed though when going from an old wm5 theme, like the flat black ones to the actual wm6 themes that there is a lot that isn't added to the registry like in wm5.
Example if you go to
HKLM/software/microsoft/color
with a wm5 theme installed, then switch to a wm6 theme and refresh, you'll see the difference or atleast I did with the black wm6 and solo black themes found here.

(also where my post is)
If you look at kyphurs page here
http://wm6.kyphur.org/Today Themes.asp
You can see the difference between the true black, and gloss gray.
If I have missed a true black glossy theme somewhere I apologize for the bother, I already had my post deleted once when I tried to add an attachment, so please excuse any misspelled words or babble, as it is getting late.
Here is a pic to show the buttons I am trying to match, I did go into HKLM/software/microsoft/color and change the "BaseHue" to 000, and the pic is as dark as it went..I could possibly be missin something, the changes were instantanious, and playin around I found quite a few neat colors..but no true black.

Set basehue to 160 and that will give you black baby.
Use ThemeGen if you want to build it into a theme, it's free.

vp3G_PTT_Reassign.zip???

Hey guys,
Would anyone mind telling me what vp3G_PTT_Reassign.zip is and how to use it? I've looked for info on it but came up short... I even installed it and though ohh what the heck; my comm manager button (top left) doesn't work anymore...
Also, I'd like to know how you get the shiny numbers on the clock? The ones that are real bright...?
Last, how do we get the battery status bar (HTC Home plugin) to be on top of the today screen and not on the bottom? It's annoying to have to scroll down all the time. ;P
This is the picture of what it is supposed to look like. (Unfortunately, my batt status bar is on the bottom.)

Thanx,

I believe the yellow section is the freeware "BatteryStatus" plugin, the green section is the HTC Home plugin (Free for WM6 users, but can easily be found somewhere in this bulletin board, and easily modified with this), and the blue includes the WM default lock/unlock today plugin and the "system tray" for WM. The only question is whether this is actually running WM6 or if it's being skinned by Wisbar Advance, which is pay-for software ($10 USD).
Anything else?

about the battery status bar...
Nice move Myr,
I hadn't thought about that! Putting them in different color squares makes it a whole lot easier to explain!
You see, the yellow square is a the bottom, that is until yesterday! I opened my phone today, and now it's somewhere in the middle. but I still would like to have it on top like it is displayed on the image (mind you, the image I put on this post is the picture of what it's supposed to look like, not the way it shows on my phone...).
Now that you've boxed everything, in the green square your clock is bright, your icons right under are colorful and you have different color icons below that... I've wracked my brain to figure it out with no luck! I must be crazy 'cause it looks like the answer is right in front of me... I guess I'm "blind"! I'll read the link in just a sec... I'll let you know.
Phil

No luck there...
I guess some things are to be left untouched!
I tried the plugin. Unfortunately, the "file are not found" so it cannot continue its application. What next?
Phil

About your plugin...
Like I said before, it doesn't work...
But now it says something else; "Cannot detect Home plugin, defaulting to v1.5 settings"...
Any idea what thaqt means???

hi, ive searched the fourm n i cudnt find anything about this.....
When i had a HTC TOUCH it had a Glossy 3D like taskbar and bottom bar but on my diamond i cant seem to get to become 3D . i even used the cab whisch was for my touch BLACK GLOSSY TASKBAR
can some one plz help me out!!
below is a pic of sum1 who has got it but i cant find out who!!!!

this look very cool m8..i was trying to find some information on this..i think this may be a little deeper work with some of the files on diamond. This guy either did this in photoshop or he actually managed to rewrite some files that are crucial to these nice icons..btw have you got any info on this?

Wallpaper...
Fancy sharing that wallpaper?

pretty simple...just choose a different theme in the today settings. the .tsk file that uses the flat black will stay flat black since they are set in the registry for that file...running glossy black will not change it. however, if you choose say the windows default theme in the today settings (start/settings/today), hit ok. go into file explorer and run run glossy black.exe (attached), you will be in business. try it...you could also search for black .tsk themes throughout the forum...there are a ton out there with lots of cool backgrounds. hope this helps...

wow amazing
for me cant change wallpaper
calender is not in English
any way
very cool

just exelent...

Great theme. Thanks for all your work.

Weather
Does anyone know how they got the weather to display the next 4 days within the tf3d tab instead of having to go to a different screen?

Hey - just installed it, it looks amazing. I had some issues that were the purpose of this post, but I reflashed my ROM, made a few setting changes and tried again. Issues resolved.
For the person that asked about wallpaper, I think that because this uses a panoramic wallpaper, you have to actually overwrite manila files to change it. Search "pano" or panorama.
Flashing to a ROM that uses HD manila will allow the four days of weather on the main screen. If there are other ways to do it, I don't know about them.

Hia thank for your work. I've a problem in fact in home my clock remain on "am 0.00" all time. Why? How can i resolve?

somone know where to find the font that he uses in the theme? i can't find it anywhere, help if u can, thx in advance!!

Is this mirrored somewhere that doesnt require a registration? Looks awesome but I dont need another site spamming my box.

[May 15] Pureblack Phonecanvas Skin (preview)

Hi,
Didn't do anything on xda for a while, except reading.
I want to do some work for windows mobile again so here I am with a concept.
I remember when I used to use a Prophet, a lot of people wanted black skins for everything because it's supposed to save your battery. So i decided to do so.

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is this something you guys would like to see on your phones or not?
I'm just looking for something to skin, most of the programs are already skinned here on xda and I feel like it's getting a bit over-saturated with designers.
So if you don't like this idea, give me a suggestion to skin another program.
If you do like it, please let me know.

I realy like this idea fo a simple black dialer. and looking at it it would go perfect with ur OUTLINE FOR TF3D.. im using tf3d2 otherwise id still be using that theme. a couple questios though.. what dialer is it based on? will it be vga, will it have s2a and will it have a curtain like ur MINIMAL PHONE CANVAS ?

Totally Black! i love it

Black always looks good...nice work!

It is a damn good idea. But there is always things to skin Such as G-Alarm, titanium, s2p, s2u2, etc.. I would love to see more of your work since it's nice. I hope you do update your Outline theme for the new TF3D2 and add some new icons.
Kraize

looks nice, if you can skin that way this one, it would be great for me

I'll cancel all my skinning until HTC gives us a proper phonecanvas for wm 6.5.
6.5 is the future and 6.1 is no longer comming back to my device.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Dang, I thought this looked really cool...
They might be coming out with a 6.5 device soon, don't they have a conference next month?
Edit: It's June 24th.

i want the old preview D:

Black, my fav. color... This skin would be a HIT... its black and its simple ... im already lovi'n it

Good to see you're skinning Paul.
I'm using your minimal dialer in my ROMs, and wouldn't mind the black version.
;]
HTC should be pushing a new phonecanvas shortly, but we'll need to port it to VGA, since it's most probably gonna be in WVGA.
