This app will check the weather and put a corresponding weather picture as your background.
I know, it's been done before. But not on the MotoQ smarthpone. This should work on portrait phones as well as ppc.
in the ini file you will need to edit your zip code under the weather, as well as the path to the images. I tried to make the path default to under weathpaper
What to expect?
Well as I mentioned above, it's going to check the weather and select the image that matches the weather and time of day.
Then it's going to open the image and assign it to the background. Here is the stickler. It uses the picture editor to install the background.
This may not work on certain phones. If you have some other camera or situation I would be glad to help fit it to yer phone.
If anybody was interested we could change the opacity at this time as well.
The WeatherPaper script which does most of the grunt work I left mostly intact. I just set it to grab the zip code and path from the ini.
Once you run it it will check every 30 minutes unless you change it in the ini.
Landscape 320x240 backgrounds are included. I will post a link to the source when i fill it in.
It's slightly more hearty. It tries to hide when it can.
There is a delay when you run it. This is so it can be run as a startup shortcut. It's all cause of targetting the softmenu's sub menu. If there are other processes this script may not succeed.
I may add more clean-up code if there are any residuals.
Now it won't change the image if the current image is still good. Also won't bother checking if phone is locked. We could have a retry delay if locked or no internet. If you have some other lock.exe they can be added.
It can be run once or set to autorun on phone bootup.
This also includes a weathPaperStartup script. this on u can shortcut to your startup folder. The setup app will do this automatically.
Enclosed are the landscape backgrounds. I will find the portrait version. Also the original links to the artist.
This version is set up for Landscape. You can use the config tool I provided to use a different directory. Also use you can set a diffferent default image for when the weather cant be reached.
- weathPaperSet.mscr - Settings script. This will also create the startup shortcut.
- weathPaper.mscr - Run this to change the background. It will check the weather and change the background if it can connect. It will exit quietly if the internet cant be reached or the background remains unchanged.
Whats next? WeatherTones. MoonPaper at night? Links, portrait version. auto install qvga landscape or portrait?
Here is the alternate build that uses the refresh command.
It does not work for me. Maybe it works for u?
This build requires Mortscript version 4.2.
The non refresh command version can be used with 4.2 and above.
I notice the refresh is not occuring at all? That will get fixed in the next version.
I should find the portrait version and originating link and maybe link straight to there for the backgrounds.
I think i also will add the function to set the default background to the time of day when there is no internet connection. Right now it goes to a default "no internet" background that u set.
I want to implement weathTones, sounds when the weather changes. I found it has been done before but the script is very old and dusty and may require quite a bit of shoe horning to get working with the new weather url. If need be I will need to add or switch to a different weather url?
Already made the next version so default image can be weather night and day image...
Seems Facade can switch background screens correctly. WPC got that working real goodly.
UPDATE:
just dumping the newest version of the script.
This script is way down the priority list on my projects atm.

This program is used to shrink the icons in the Programs explorer in Pocket PCs.
It's WM5 and WM2003 compatible.
Note: it only works once, until you change folder. So assign it to a hardware key.
Note: you must launch "programs" once before use; it will complain if you don't.

Works great on my Qtek9100
I'm using VJSmallIcons.exe 2
Post a screenshot!

Of course here it is :
Great work,
i have created a shortcut in the programs folder, because i dont want it to map to a hardware-button. i renamed the link to 1vjsmallicons.lnk to get in just pretty first in the list of programs.
If i enter the programs folder i press on the shortcut and the menu is small.
But two issues:
1. if i small the icons and wlak through the list of programs i get in the second column of the list. The first column disappears and there is no way to get back. I use a qtek 9100
2. If i call the programs folder again all the icons are just small. So as if it remembers to the first call (bug or feature). Furthermore i get to the column where i have left the program menu folder.
Topcaser, what command line are you using?
VJSmallIcons only changes the current explorer screen. It doesn't try to change any others, so when you go into a subfolder it will go back to normal. The small icons can be made more permanent, but it would require more programming that I haven't had time to do yet...
V
I am using no option, just calling the program via a link.
btw, how can i specify an option?? And what is the sense of this option 0-4
Is it the number of cols?
And what about the second issue: i can never scroll back to the first column, once it was gone. (also with the control panel not)
topcaser: the command line 0 to 4 will change the view style, in exactly the same way as you have on your PC: large icons, small icons, details, listview etc. Just try them out!
Not sure about the contrl panel issue? Could you try to send a screenshot? Use MagicSS if you don't already have a screenshot program.

Hi,
i have posted two pics: the first shows a blue mark over snap tool. At the second one i pressed the left button to get to the most left column again. But the screen does not follow this markation.
A second question: how am i able to specify the comand line option?
topcaser:
I don't have my phone with me today, I'll have a play with it a bit later. Are the pictures the wrong way round as you describe them? I can only see the blue selection mark in the second picture.
For the command line, read here

Yes you are right. My mistake. Sorry
Topcaser, using the settings shown in the screenshot, have you tried going up to the top, instead of left? It depends which command line option you're using, but try it just in case.
V
This dont works also.
Hi VJ,
i have played around with your tool. Command line option 2 and 1 works perfect. But the best way to use it is with command line option 3. Forget Small Menu - one can use only your little app (maybe together with Mortbutton and Mortscript) - it can do the same as SmallMenu. Together with MagicButton one misses no feature at all.
Unfortunately the command line option 3 has the bug which i described above. Have you fixed this already?
Topcaser, unfortunately if there's a bug in the view, I can't really fix it. I don't do anything other than change the view style of the "listview" control that the programs menu is based on. So it's very simple. But the programs menu is not designed to have its view changed, so if it's buggy, I can't help it very much. I'll try to have another look though, someone on brighthand was complaining about making the programs menu small, and I think it might be possible to make this program resident so that it kind of retains the settings.
But this is a small program, and others have to be fixed first I'm afraid. I will try to have another look.

Firstly thanks to all those who contributed knowledge, picture files etc in the production of this cab file.
This 'super theme' does a few things -
changes phone dialler skins in both landscape and portrait mode
changes dial buttons in both potrait and landscape views aswell as in the progress screen and dial screens
changes missed/incoming/outgoing notifications in call history
changes the ringtone to the matrix soundtrack
adds the matrix theme to 'my documents' folder.
what i am struggling with is to automate the matrix.tsk file automatically rather than manually setting the file.
i added this to my extended rom so the only other thing it didnt apply is the black bars on the task bars etc.
apart from that give me your verdict on rounghly a weeks work.....
ps the file is 4mb due to the ringtone and also i would like the data for the 'video' button so that i can amend the registry to fit in with the rest of the theme. thanks.

Nice, can anyone do some more, don't want matrix on my cell
Thanks a lot .. works perfect
Hi 16cum,
What application are you using for your meters? Any slow downs?

i am using a simple one called batterybar.arm
attached
nice and simple an deasy to use doesnt slow the system down much, only thing is it was designed for WM2003 so sometimes shows charging and sometimes battery full, but after a single tap starts to behave!
re other screen shots well i am hoping to do Star Wars theme, but give me a bit of time and will post
nice work 16cum :wink: give us more !!
Hello
A few glitches sorted out with the cab files, they still do what i said they would the difference is now they are about 1mb in size, i have cut down the ringtone to 33 secs so drastically reduce the file size with compromising quality.
the rest is the same. you will still need to apply the theme via the Today Screen settings as as yet i havent been able to apply directly. Unless someone can help me!!! anyway
Enjoy Starwars and Matrix!!!!
Plz leave feedback on these and any requests and am also considering starting a website for these Super Themes so can have them all in one place.
Thanks
Forgot to add:
Use any cab file on your Exec, and just install. It will restart the device, then goto settings>today and apply the theme.
If you want the other one instead just transfer the other cab file and click to install. It will automatically uninstall the first theme and install the 2nd one and just the same goto the settings>today and apply the new theme.
This way you dont use a lot of storage space and program memory., you only use the 1mb for each theme in you device or better still SD card.
thanks
Err I am no longer using The Matrix theme but it is still shows up on the dial pad section? How do i remove it?
Edit: Found it under remove programs
This is a small application codded in VB.NET for cropping contact photos by selecting the desired part of the photo. I've added special preset for SCLCP++ contact photos (the photos are cropped and resized 72x75).
Features:
- Open, save and crop PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP files
- Read contact photos form PocketOutlook
- Probably lot of bugs
A have attached 2 installers:
- Clean install no source included
- Full install vb.net sources are installed along application in "Source" folder
for other .net developers:
I have made a little .net class wrapper for gsGetFile.dll so if you want to use it or modify it please do so. The wrapper saves the last open and save folder in the registry so there's no need to do It in your code... the paths saved are per application
Developers please do not curse me for the more-than-not-optimal coding.. this is one of the first .net applications I've coded... and users please report the bugs you find..
Some known bugs:
- Not adequate behavior when no selection is made.
- When you open a file or get a contact picture the view mode is reset
- Selections from right to left mirror the selection
**************** Version 1.01 UPDATE
ChangeLog:
- Added crude support for SmartPhone (no touchscreen.. small dot for pointer)
- Renamed "Custom" preset to "Free"
- Added support for custom sized crops - new preset "Custom"
- Added "Settings" dialog for choosing the default OpenFile Dialog
- Removed sources from the installer (only in separate archive)
Some screens:
{
"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",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
*** I hate the choose image dialog so I use the gsGetFile.dll's one.. maybe I will add a setting to switch the default dialog box.
Cool, prog! I've been exporting my pics to GIMP, editing them.. and then sending back to phone and its a pain! good job!
Cheers

Frickin awesome man..
I have been waiting for something like this. Can't wait to get home and try. well done!!!!
You should rename your files to show 1.0 version so that way when you update it we will know we are downloading the new one..Just an idea..
Awesome! I'll be using this a lot as loading up photoshop or GIMP is annoying!
I guess I'm a bit lazy for not trying it but does it work on WM Standard (non touchscreen) aswell??
Seems like a very nice app!!!
Very nice application.
Thank you
Nice work.
Just one slight problem... VS 2008 is refusing to convert the source code ... I'll tweak the settings and see what happens.

I've just updated the version to 1.01 (crude pseudo cursor). It will be nice if someone test it on SmartPhone...

Great Idea and great application.
wonderful. thank you.
Hello all,
i have been looking for a way to set my todat theme to a TSK file that is not located in the //windows , //My documenst folder or the root of a storage card. There are already a few programs out there that can do this (like mortscript and ShantzTodayChanger) but i just wanted a simple program that displays a browse dialog and lets me just select a TSK file to set as the today theme.
So i just made my own, i'm posting it here just in case someone else wants something like this.
Update 20080908
almost figured out how to preview the TSK, it's not perfect yet, there are still unsupported TSK files, but it already looks quite good...

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
usage:
just copy to your device ands start the program.
Select a TSK file (does not matter where the location is).
Click apply and you are all set
Some TSK files are a bit "stubborn" they do not set the colors correctly. Check "Force refresh" to also set the Colors of the theme. I have tested it and it works without problems, but there is some brute force involved here so please use at your own risk.
Also, if you see the "No preview available" message it does not mean that the TSK cannnot be used by the program, it just means that the program was unable to preview the TSK.
If you could do that, you'd be the man. That's exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for the app, I'll test it out later.
grrrrreat! thanks
The ability to preview will be a big plus, and a program icon perhaps?
@mb286: Good man ..Preview option would be definitely great.. (and thanks for the ShantzTodayChanger mention )
Updated first thread, the program now displays a preview of the TSK, if possible.
I was about to bump the thread and I saw ur update. Thanks a lot!!
it's nice release, thank you nb286 ;D
sweet
....nice one....thx...!!!
sweet! forcing the colors is on the money.
LOL
THANKs
keep wrkng
But how do you GENERATE a tsk file? I have tweeked about 50-80 interface color elements, from text to scrollbars, but i have no idea how to preserve it as a theme (tsk). I used "UITweeker" to achieve my themed look of all those interface elements, but i've never been able to get its own export theme function to work....

That is a good question, there are programs out there that can generate a tsk , but i don't really know of a program that can generate a tsk file based on the current theme settings of the device. But i don't really use these programs, i mainly use premade tsk files.
I know it already exists one, but its not customizable in what folder to show.
My ideia is to mix some of the already available plugins out there.
The Favorite People plugin already has the show picture part done.
And the System and Weather plugins use mortcript for some extra tweaking.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I was thinking of a simple softkey button that allows the user to choose a folder (with a browse layout).
And a simple mortscript code to list all the available images on that folder, saving it to a text file database or so.
The plugin would have 3 pages (previous, current and next image). Then, as you scroll left or right, the mortscript would change the name of the images on the plugin pages to make a circular order (or random, if that extra setting existed).
The size of the pictures would be much bigger than the current one, like the plugin changes that theDaniel (used here as an example) and KerMiT80 already made. The picture date of creaton would be a nice detail, as shown in the example, but that would probably give much more work than necessary, so it would probably not appear.
Instead, the plugin could show the full count of the images inside that folder, and what number is showing at the moment.
The condensed view could show a text with a picture icon saying "x pictures in folder Y", being X the total number of pictures inside and Y the folder name or path.
And, of course, if you click on the picture it would pop-up the "picture viewer" showing that image.
This would be pretty easy for me to do in flash, but outside flash, not so much...
So, does anyone want to do this? I can help on the CPR editing, some of the registry code and do the dinamyc picture frame with a small shadow...
Someone is already making such plugin, rpereira is designing a slideshow picture plugin with a specified folder.
Thats great news, where did you read that?
hi twolf,need your help
Hi twolf,glad to see you online again.
er,could you please tell me that which rom are you using?I really want to flash my touch,however,t don,t know which rom is better.

I went to see his Analog plugin thread, wow, its so much better than the original idea now.
I dont like analog clocks so never installed his plugin before, now that I did I just wanna change it:
The grey area would be extras, in case someone lese would want, I wouldnt use it.
Hi twolf,
It's the thread below where we were discussing the picture slideshow.
rpereira posted a video example of what was possible too.
I personally can't wait for this to be available.
