How do i change the background on the lock screen? not that i dont like the flower just want something a bit diffrent lol
In the S2U2 settings? You'll find there whole submenu dedicated to wallpaper settings.
lol ive looked there, i transferd the file there but the image was much smaller than it should have been :S
As posted above it is in the settings program. But the easiest method is to use S2V by the same author. Set as S2U2 Wallpaper is an option when viewing any image with S2V.

Image needs to be a certain size for your device. I would go look in the S2U2 thread in Dev & Hacking; the answers to your questions are all there.

I have a lovely photo as my today wallpaper but it is faded out so much it's spoilt. Is there a way I can make it display without any transparency. I have searched these forums and gone through all the option I could find on the phone and didn't find anything.
Thanks

Trying viewing the photo through pictures & Videos in start menu programs. Then choose photo and go to menu, you will see set as today background, then you can adjust transparency!
Hope this helps
Great, thank you. I would never have found that. GF is looking good on the phone now.
Thanks again.
How about is it possible to make the start menu background opaque so that I can actually read what is in the start menu??
I would rather use a registry setting than a tweak tool, thanks.
I really don't want to start threads, I searched for this but only found a today plugin, or flash backgrounds. Please if someone knows such thing tell me. There should be such a thing. I will love 2 hav it.
no relpy
oh...plz. reply

As far as I know, and after searching for a themes player myself, I discovered there are no free or free to try players. $15 and up. If my memory serves me correctly, the company who provides theme player programs is "wasp". Google to find more.
A little more help
Well i searched a lot on google, but unfortunately couldn't find the required thing (mayb im too bad, but not that much). All i find relative was "Wasp Barcode Technologies Wasp Mobile Asset Desktop" , "wasptech.com" but they make something else or mayb im missing something. Are u sure this one is the thing i want, i mean which plays gif as a background. Moreover could u tell anything which can set html page as background. Kindly please guide me.
aaah i get something its netwasp. U know wen i searched for wasp themes player....etc i got nothing but wen i searched 4 exactly "theme player programs" then i got that
very close to wat i want, as the theme generator can import gif, ive once saw them b4 but left as they may b heavy. Well a simple standalone gif only background animator would b the best 4 me
try "animated today"
no one is exactly understanding me . Animated today and FlashTheme Player are same and FlashDash and FlashThemes Pro are same. Both use Flash Player which is much resource taking and even wen it uses gif u need a theme generator for it and its so unreal. Wat i need is just as u simply set a jpeg as background u could set an animated gif.
well as i understang it, you cannot set a jpeg to animate. you need a series of jpegs and then convert it to a .gif file, there are programs to do this, then you can use todaygif to set it on your screen

I know that, not a stupid . U didn't actually understood me. I ve searched every where and i dont need any today PLUGIN or any Flash based themes, thats what my topic clearly states. What i was saying, meant that a program that enables u to set animated gif just like the way we usually use to set jpeg, bmp... pictures by default as background in the ppc.

I think Ive got what you're asking for below in the attached cab files. Install both, preferrably to main memory. The HTC gif player is what actually animates the gifs. The other cab is a gif to get started.If your today screen is cluttered ie: battery status, launches, etc., only smaller gifs can be played...80x80 or under. On the other hand, if nothing is on your today screen, you can animate gifs 128x128 and up to 240x320. You can go to www.funformobile.com and download any size animation you want for your background. After the cabs have been installed, go to your Today settings, click "items", and check the box by GIF Today, click o.k., the gif should appear. After you've downloaded animations from the above website, click the right side of the animation on the today screen, a box pops up, click "confg", tap on the parameter boxes to put your larger animation in its place. I created a folder in my SD memory, named it Today GIFs, and the animations I downloaded were saved to that folder. Sure hope I'm understanding your wants, and this helps!

hotdog, i appreciate ur efforts and thank u for ur help. I ve said that i didn't need a TODAY PLUGIN (its useless), i need a thing that can animate e.g this .gif person on today's background (see pic1) like this (see pic2) or any other gif. Sorry if im bothering too much
I think this could be done if there is u can set an HTML page as today background (not plugin), is there any prog for that ?

The GIF on my today screen is the gif taken from your attached zip file. It is actually animated on my today screen by the HTC Gif player whose download file I've attached in this thread. The player will animate pictures when you tap on them anywhere in the directory..not just the Today screen.

Here's an app that lets you see all your pictures and photos as a slideshow on the Today screen. After installation, go to Today settings, items, checkmark the box by PHM pictures, highlight name, options, set to your choosing.

Aboinger, I am also interested in exploring Ultimate Launcher. Your Athena Ultimate Launcher Interface looks so nice. How did you do that? Can you explain step by step. Cos I also installed Ultimate Launcher, but Ultimate Launcher can only slide from right to left or vice versa, functions like the "easy shortcut". But Ultimate Launcher cannot move up and down.
Landscape is supported and works perfectly fine...
my ultimate launcher is also limited from side to side / fade animations
when you are in the tabs option and hit create new it should give you an option to add in plugins / shortcuts
what exactly did u need help with id be more than happy to help
Where download the ultimate launcher?
its an exe so its in a zip
dont know where the cab for the english version is ...
updated video to include ftouchsl / new UL interface

Better!...
I know this is a thread to demo the UL (which I just got put on two days ago....awesome software). But boinger, I notice that you have flames on your S2U2. One: where did you get that animated background for it? Second: your S2U2 looks as if it was designed for VGA....mine looks like a stretched QVGA screen. How can i get mine crisp like yours?
Thanks buddy. Nice layout..
BTW....I'm not sure what the version that was linked earlier in this thread....but I found the english version here!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365334&highlight=Ultimate+Launcher&page=2
yes this one is the english version
and about S2U2 i changed the graphics for vga.. you can do that simply by editing the .png's
i just changed the clock files to be honest.
and in real vga mode the slider doesnt work. so i enabled dpad support cause the screen mapping is off.
i can send you the flames gif... i got it off another member and edited it for vga.
You said editing the png's. Does that mean you changed the icons themselves, or you adjusted the values of the png to fit VGA? Just a little confused on that. Or all together, did you edit the pngs in a software such as Adobe Photoshop? If that is the case I might have to ask are you willing to share....thats a little over my head.
Yes Please email me the flame background...[email protected]
I might go back to S2U2 because of this.
Thanks boinger....appreciated buddy!
the blue flames jpg is attached
and i wouldnt mind sending you the vga clock files but that should be in the clock pack already
boinger,
What sort of icon format does ultimatelaunch accept. Is it only ico? What about png format?
only ico
you can use 32bit xp icons though.. so they look just as nice... only dillema is you have to convert most icons from .png
i can upload my ico icon pack for you all if you like ?
how can i use icon(bottom) like you?
i like your style..
looks nice..
i tried but.. i cannot use it.
i do not know how i set the icon.
i like icon linked like iphone..
please, let me know how you set yr advantage.....
That would be awesome if you uploaded some of your icons boinger. I'm also trying to find some to share here as well.
I'm struggling a little with the "not activated" signs in the corner. I have registered this app, and entered the code twice. Soft-reset. After a couple of minutes and some navigation, they reappear.
I searched for some answers, and it seems there isnt a fixed from what I was able to find.
Anybody else having this annoyance!!
Thanks
here ya go
Thanks boinger. These are nice buddy!!!!
I think I have the wrong version of S2U2. I just took the WM5 version that I used for my x51v. I say this because, I cant use gif. as a wallpaper for it. I'm assuming that I might not have the most current version.
Lastly, I have been trying to incorporate your icons, but for some reason UL will not show them when I select them. I can only use the default icons that come with them.
Any ideas!!!
I don't seem to be able to enter text for the application icon, although I can see that the config icon has a description.
What is the trick to enter this text?
I'm also unable to choose tab icon. Does tab icon got to meet certain criteria for them to work?

set the icon size to 72 x 72 that should work..
UL wont show icons unless they are the proper size...
and im running s2u2 .99c
I just uninstalled cLaunch, a couple of Zombienexus themes and dialer skins, iContacts and Slide2Unlock. (Gonna reinstall and start fresh)
I'm pretty sure that it has nothing to do with it but as I am choosing a wallpaper/BG from Settings>Today >"Use this picture as the background"; It is no longer giving me a preview of the wallpaper with the slider for the opacity.
Did I delete it?
Does anybody know what I can do to fix this as all my backgrounds are washed out.
Thanks.
Anyone have anything on this? I'm having a similar problem. I tried to install HTC Home on mine and it locked it up. Had to do a hard-reset, then reinstalled the WM 6.1 ROM and it still doesn't give me the slider or the preview.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This was the first thread to pop up in a Google search of the site. After some further investigation, let me answer my own question...
Hi guys,
When I put a picture as the today's wallpaper, the picture is lighter than normal.
Is there anyway to fix it and get the real picture colors ?
Thx

If you set the image under settings/today, thats what you will get. For some reason it uses a transparency value (nowhere to change this here).
The best and easiest solution I have found, is to open the Camera, and view the Album. Browse to the image you want, click it and keep it pressed so that the context menu comes up, select "Set as Today Background...". This will show you the image, and allow you to set the transparency level. Set it to zero, and the image in the Today Background will look exactly as it should.

All,
Is there a way to do this? All i want is to browse to any picture in my internal storage and set it as a wallpaper on the TF3D Home tab.
I already have the Diamond Wallpaper changer program but pics have to be in a directory right?
Perhaps I've missed something very obvious?!
Thanks
Just go to the settings tab in tf3d, same tab as wifi, bluetooth and other stuff is, there you'll find an option to change the wallpaper aswell
Ha, I knew it was something easy, I'm still used to finding my way with the 'original WM' style interface.
Thanks!
but one thing...you need to downsize pic you want to 320 x 293 so it will look right on your screen.
