I've been using WisBar Advance Desktop 2 for a few days now and I like it but I have no clue how to get skins/themes to work with it. Below are the ones I've downloaded but I can't get any of them to work. Any help?
I'm using an AT&T Tilt running WM6 if that helps any.

just copy the extracted file you downloaded
/Program Files/Lakeridge/Wisbar Advance Desktop/Themes
you should have install the WAD in your phone memory not storage care.
then go to settings in your wad and search themes it will find the theme there.
select the theme and its done...
wait for few minutes as some time it takes time to load.

This is what I see when I select the iPhone theme.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

You need to make sure there for your device, if you have a QVGA device then your fine as these themes will work.
Also if it says copy to 'Internal Storage' and yours is 'Storage Card' you need to make a folder on the root of device memory named 'Internal Storage' and vice versa if its the other way round.
Make sure everything is copied per instructions, fonts, images, scripts etc and everything is placed into the correct folder.
ok the problem is
when the person made the theme, the theme has to be associated exactly.
let me explain.
if i create a theme, and all of my images are in specific folders.
if i gave you that theme you would need to have the images in the exact location. as it looks there for them.
your screen shot shows the theme is loaded, however the images arent loading. therefore you need to make certain you have the images in the correct spots.

NOTES
=====
1. This cab will install the following
icon.dll (required for the icons to your windows directory)
Folders with my icons to your start->programs menu
2. The folders that will be installed have been given an ENGLISH name. If you have your default folders in another language, you will end up with your original ones PLUS my own folders.
===================
CUSTOMIZE YOUR FOLDERS
===================
1. Using a file explorer navigate to /windows/start menu/programs
2. Every folder (from my skin, has its own icon.lnk file. You can copy that to any folder you like to give it the same icon
3. Put that mess in a nice organized order!!!

Thanks, they are cool. looks great with the new rhodium icons.
Thanks
Excellent. These might end up in my ROM, if I can get evrything else working. Seems like nobody wants to share the Rhodium commanager, which is all I need to make more progress. Thumbs up
Here's some I put together. Not quite as nice, but effective.
Same install instuctions as Gianni86's folder icons.

Name : htc programs
Size : 150kb
Info : 3X FASTER than the original program folder
Comparing Video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWlZC_ZPIXA
so now i need your help to change the original programs folder path to this EXE
YOU NEED TO TRY IT
installing: unzip it and copy it anywhere in your diamond and make shortcut to startmenu
Very smooth indeed. Nice one mate.
Got a question though. How do you create a shortcut in the start menu to a program like this that hasn't been installed?
look at this - Link Creator 1.3 ... it should do the job... (if u are using english rom)
Wonderful
Is there the settings.exe?
I think this is the same as something that should already be on your phone. Check in \Windows for a file called folderview.exe (it's on my Fuze and I presume it's in Diamond's as well). I've seen this in the past since the tweak to get 4 columns in the programs directory will not work for this file. What I've done n the past is set this as a soft key to make it quicker to get to.

Renaming this file to folderview.exe and cooking it in the ROM overwriting the existing file wont help?

Where did you get the background from?
Thanks guys for the solving my shortcut program. It was really bugging me that I didnt have a shortcut to the TomTom 7.9.
This How To will show you step by step how to create a cab file.
You can cab up anything you want to put on your phone in ANY directory...
Cab Manager Program
I use and recommend WinCE Cab Manager (Get it HERE)
it has a 30 day free trial and is $99 after that...
Sure there are more out there... Feel free to Post
Getting Started
First you will need a file to cab. We will start with a basic single manila file.
i have attached one if you don't already have..
* Here you can simply add a document/picture to your my documents folder
After Installing Open WinCE Cab Manager
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Enter Name's for Company and whatever cab your making
Just Click Next..
Just Click Next Again....
And now click finish...
Now this should be what you have. Displays all info for cab file
Now we need to add the files.
From windows explorer just click and drag the files right on top of Files...
Once you do that the following dialog box pops up...
Here you can change name or attributes
Click Location tab
Here you can choose what directory to put file(s) in. you can also add a new folder
Click Ok
Now back at main screen
Here you can "Allow Uninstall"
also you can Compress
I recommend compressing for files over a meg or two
From the menu click CABINET...PROPERTIES...
Here you can change ALL properties of cab file
Click OK...
Back at the Main Screen...
All left to do is review and Save
You can also add Shortcuts and make changes to the registry...
Now to Save...Choose location and SAVE!

Awesome, thank you!! I'd been looking at some other "how-to-cab" guides, this one seems to be as simple as can be
Looks like I've got my weekend project all lined up now
I created a clean looking HTC animated splash based on the HTC "YOU" commercials. It's only about 4 seconds long to avoid a long startup sequence. Just unzip and use a file namager like Total Commander to copy the files into your /windows/ folder.
If someone would volunteer to make this a cab, I'd appreciate it.
Update: Sept 1st, 2010 - Installable CAB version for those who don't want to have to copy the files to their windows folder. (thanks Brent372). Look a few posts down for the link.

Cab installed to device, no go.
Stock ROM/ radio...themes all custom cozy.
In which folder do u put the zip file in windows???
On Acer Neotouch S200 with a stock ROM is NOT working....
I've installed a cab on a main mamory, but nothing!
alright i found this app which changes icons but it also contains a "bonus feature"
that allows you to change either the animated boot screen,and or microsoft boot screen just copy your "gifs",and "pngs" to your sd card find them with the app
Save,close,then use the "reset device" option and enjoy.
(the preview option is broken)
Using this now on my Sprint Touch Pro 2. If you have Sprint, you have to copy over the "SPCS_480x800.gif" file in the Windows folder.
Thanks for the great work!
P.S. Where's the thanks button on your post? Would like to have used it...
