What App Is This?

Wish I had a photo, but I remember seeing some Today screens that inidicated the number of voicemails, e-mails and SMS messages on the very top of the screen where signal strength, the clock, volume, etc indicators are. Can someone tell me what app(s) do this?

Well, there's Phone Alarm. But that is on your Today screen, not up on the top bar. But you can put it up next to it, like this...
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I feel as if I've seen it in the area above where you've placed PhoneAlarm. Does Wisbar do what I'm looking for?

It's not this one is it?

^^^ It is! ^^^
What is it?

dunno but the website tat pic came from was:
http://www.vijay555.com

The screenshot shows a couple of plugins I wrote, and some other tricks.
Ok, basically, I used my app called VJToggleToday to minimise the StartBar and Bottom bar down to maximise screen space.
Then, I used a custom PhoneAlarm skin I wrote. Using VJToggleToday, that can now "replace" the standard OS Start Bar.
It's all explained here, and the skins etc are available:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27331&highlight=vjtoggletoday
VJToggleToday is being re-written for WM5 - go to the end of that thread for the current alpha release.
I haven't converted the PA skin to the WM5 version yet. I'm in the process of doing it now.

Thanks! I look into this; however, the links to your alpha release of VJToggleToday don't seem to work.

Try this one:

Thanks! Hopefully your full release will offer the option to keep the lower menu bar.

makisupa: use the configuration screen (or edit the registry directly), and just set the softkeys to 26 pixels as default. Then the softkeys will stay, but you can hide the start bar (top bar) as you wish.
In the current alpha release, both bars can be sized to whatever size <=26 pixels you want.
Access the config by launching it with the command line -config

Where is this located in the Registry?

But as I said, you don't need to use the registry, you can use -config

"SaFF" - Clock today plugin for XIAMultiTheme - Orientation Aware!

== Small and Finger Friendly ==
This is a clock area today plugin I made to compliment UltimateLaunch. Originally it was an rlToday plugin, but I have moved on to XIAMultiTheme (XMT).
It is an ongoing work, there will be improvements, probably VGA versions etc, but it is certainly ready for use now, so I am releasing it.
Current version: 0.9
You will need:
XIAMultiTheme (version GREATER than 0.06 - the nightly builds are later than 0.0.6 if 0.0.7 is not out yet)
MortScript must be installed if you want to hear beeps when you press the BT / WiFi buttons
That's it!!
Installation:
1) Install XMT and Mortscript.
2) Extract SaFF zip to PC, upload the SaFF folder inside to the XMT themes folder on your PPC (Extras is source images etc, you dont need that on PPC)
3) Copy all .ttf files from the extras folder to the \Windows folder on your PPC
4) Select SaFF as active in the XMT config app
5) (Optional) Set the registry type of the SaFF plugin to Type 5 to make always on top (see readme.txt in zip)
Planned improvements and changes:
===========================
Different colour icons as well as the blue.
Clock font as PNGs with transparency
Prefraction of backgrounds behind the rounded buttons / backgrounds
Removing reliance on mortscript to make beeps
I AM NOT AN ARTIST SO IF YOU ARE AND WANT TO CONTRIBUTE IMAGE SETS THEN LET ME KNOW !!

I am currently working on a new version for VGA.
I am also looking to improve the graphics somewhat - all graphics are just PNG files so any artist wanting to try and skin SaFF, let me know - it is very easy. BlueMetalAxe supplied me with a button template which helped, maybe I can persuade to do me a complete skin job
Here is a preview:
I have no new version of the landscape VGA skin yet, I am toying with how to do it as the larger BT / WiFi buttons in portrait mean I would need seperate images for the landscape buttons or standardise on size. I am thinking the former.

I have decided on layout, so all I need do is gussy up the graphics. I re-did the clock font, and am pretty happy with that now.
Here is the new layout (For both Portrait and Landscape) with slightly improved graphics. Has been mangled somewhat by the screenshot utility but you get the idea...
[Edit] I dunno why, in the SS, the counter for mail in the portrait layout has a couple of numbers stacked on top of each other (The top one is a 4) - this does not happen in normal usage, I think it only happens just after you switch orientation.

Clock font as PNGs with transparency
looking forward to this feature, then i can make a nixie clock on my home screen!!

[THE]Timbermill Themes & Pieces

As time allows, I'll be adding more
To start off, here's a manila edit with a mini slider and tranparent backgrounds, so that you can see more of your wallpaper.
This version has an Indiana Jones theme using the offical icons from the iconfactory (plus others)

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(based on the Chunghwa manila files and .tsk)
EDIT: The .theme didn't work too well, problems with images resizing. When I've added some more changes I'll update this post with a full theme file cab.
For now please install it manually, just turn off TF3D and extract the indianila.zip file to Windows, then turn TF3D back on.

nice bro....sweeeeeeeeeeet indiana

75 wallpapers
Found on my hard drive, probably from interfacelift. Mainly nature and landscapes (all 480 x 640)
Coud work well with a wallpaper auto-changer
http://rapidshare.com/files/140056939/Timbermill_Finds.zip.html

Excuse for my English but how to make back фот not the main window is more light?

I'll post some different colours for the tab backgrounds very soon
If you need the ppc .tsk for the chunghwa theme it is attached.
I'm playing about with the transparent clock backgrounds at the moment (files attached)
EDIT: will add the number set later. DONE .pngs for manila edits.
The Fedora.ttf numbers are all placed above the 'fold' line so they appear to flip down from their baseline.
I think it's a nice effect but isn't really suitable for thin fonts.
Allows you to make more use of the clock backgrounds for graphics (examples will follow).
A full Indiana theme isn't far off now, still playing with this and others

So where can we download it?

thank you will try it

The best theme for Diamond IMHO.
But dark font color is not readable on black default background in manila's pages and some home wallpapers. Seems it needs to change font color or change background. Please solve how can I change it?

Very nice work bro....many many thanks from the Greece

It's been a long time
Just flashed the Gen.Y ROM and now catching up on a year of manila mods
Many thanks to all the XDA contributors.

So they are Android action bar icons from http://developer.android.com/design/downloads/index.html converted to font.
You can use it as any other font with Zooper - that means, you can scale and color it in any way you like.
There's no logical order, but attached character map should help.
You should be able easilly use it with standard Google Keyboard.
If you want request some new icons or suggest improvements, feel free to message me.
Enjoy

- I recommend to set scaling in Zooper Widget Pro to a value between 125 to 130
- It can launch 9 different apps or activities. Choose "Layout" in Zooper Widget Pro from the menu, and set for the elements - AppStart oben/unten/Mitte/links/rechts - under setting "Module OnTap" the appropriate app / activity. The grid corresponds to the full width of the widget with 3 rows and 3 columns per line. Standard settings are to call the battery info in the top right area and the configuration menu of Zooper Widget Pro in the upper left area
