How to resize the icons in Vito Winterface?
i have a diamond and i would plus icons in the interface
At this point, there is no resizing the icons as the program uses the Windows default icon, which is 32x32.
That's my understanding anyway. Even when we've tried changing the default icon to a larger icons, it is force resized to 32x32.

I am using VJDialer (Thanks vijay555) with cLaunch and i want to make some icons so i can use Pocket Plus to launch the dialer nd get rid of cLaunch.
cLaunch allows you to create icons from pictures. How do i go about making the same for SPB. For instance the pic i have below
Cheers
There are 66 different icons in Pocket Plus. To change icon tap and hold it and select Change Icon from pop-up menu. You can also add you own icon to the list. Find "custom16.png" and "custom32.png" in "\Program Files\PocketPlus\Icons" folder on your device. Copy these files to your desktop. Now you can edit these files with any image editor. To add new icon you should create two similar icons of size 16x16 and 32x32 pixels. Add 16x16 icon to the end of the "custom16.png", and add 32x32 icon to the end of the "custom32.png". Make sure that after editing "custom16.png" has height 16 pixels and its width can be divided to 16. Check the same with the "custom32.png" image - its height should be 32 pixels and width can be divided to 32. Copy these files back to "\Program Files\PocketPlus\Icons" folder on your device and perform a soft reset. Now your icon is added to the list and you can use it.
Xilicon, that's a very nice tip there. The built-in icons are OK when using them for apps etc. but when using them with VJDialer and VJSMS you would need different icons for different ppl. There's no point putting a laptop icon for a shortcut that calls my wife!
I'll try this image editing thing tip now ...
kta - I hope the icon is meant to be a phone, not a laptop! I ripped it from XP!
Check this thread for some discussion on how to create the icons:
http://www.modaco.com/Today_Screen_Hacks-t227321.html
and for WAD etc

Basically, to get a cute picture of the wife etc, load a nice photo of her up into an art program, eg paint shop pro.
"Crop" the image as closely as possible to her face: this is going to be reduced to 32x32, so make it recognisable.
"Reduce" the image to 32x32.
Now I would reduce the colour to 256, but that's up to you.
In claunch, you can load the bmps directly; you can make icons using an icon editor, eg Microangelo. On the version I've got, basically, just start a 32x32 XP Colour icon, copy and paste directly from your art prog into Microangelo, and then if you want to, reduce the colours.
Save the .ico and use at will.
Again, for my own nausea, I decided to make a dll full of icons to keep all my images in one file. This can be done with microangelo librarian or Visual Studio if you're really hard core.
For Pocket Plus, just use the png format instead of bmp or ico.
BTW new versions of VJSMS etc coming in the next day or so

I meant the default icons of SPB Pocket Plus not your telephone icon ;-) So what's new in your VJSMS?
OK I've tried the SPB Pocket Plus trick but it seems that it's only allowing 1 extra icon (totalling 67). Anyone managed to create more than just one extra icon?
EDIT: You need to close SPB Pocket Plus and reload before the icons appear in the list!
VJSMS is the same, just a new brother and sister and minor improvements!

hiya
is there anyway to change the default folder icons or any icons on the Hermes
and how do you change a VGA to QVGA
I had some icons in .png format, which I changed to bmp since claunch doesn't support .png (or .ico). The icons size is 48x48, so I set claunch to 48x48. It does however "zoom" into the left upper corner of the icon instead of displaying it in it's original size. See the screenshot, the power icon is the one I mean (the others are resized by claunch)
same thing
I'm having the same issue on a "native and naked" ATT 8525 with WM5 anybody else?
I had a problem similar to that when I first started using cLaunch. I was wanting to use 36x36 icons in cLaunch and sized them to that. But, only the top left corner ended up showing. I resized them to 32x32, but kept the 36x36 size in cLaunch and that turned out perfect!!
So, if you're wanting to use 48x48 in cLaunch, try resizing the icons to 42x42 and see if that doesn't do the trick.
I have the same problem. Claunch doesn't seem to like any icon over 32x32. Try shrinking the icon to 32x32 and then set claunch to display it at 48x48. That's what I did with mine and they seem to look fine doing it that way.

Not sure what your running as far as ROM, etc. but if you are looking at the WM wallpaper, it can be found in Windows directory;
stwater.jpg is start menu background, also could be classicblue_stwater_800_480.jpg or _480_800
tdwater.jpg is today background
your TF3D background can be set through manila
For portrait, you want 480x800 and for lanscape you want 800x480
Is it possible to make the Icons bigger on the Home- and Menu-Screen.
The Icons are for human with handicap too small :-(
My N2E is rooted with SalsichaNooter 0.4

On the Home Screen you can use DesktopVisualizeR to add icons as big as you want (actually they are widgets, but works the same as icons). You can find it on Market.
Thanks, this was what i want
I use Go Launcher and it's got a setting that lets you custom resize all icons (and text size). Change the setting once and it automatically resizes all icons, including ones you add or move. You can make the icons very large, if that's your desire. Now if only I could get MARKET to work smoothly!
