GlassIcons VGA - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

OK, as most of you probably know, I'm not the big designer...
The background and the general idea is based on notilad's Clear Glass icons set.
Note the icons don't look well on bright backgrounds - they only consist of semi-transparent white...
The main icon image templates are mostly from the free Tango icon library, but some are also from Windows resp. the default app icons, and a few from other icon libraries I found out there...
The SPB PocketWeather theme is based on SPB's Black47 theme.
For SPB PocketPlus, there's also an iconset with black background, so you can memorize the position of the wanted icon there - because it's really hard to see white icons on white background...
The screenshots show some examples: The Today screen uses PocketPlus with SPB Weather as rightmost plugin, below is a custom phoneAlarm Skin using the TGA icons. The MortButtons main menu uses the PNG icons.

Thanks, I will be using these in my WAD2 setup.

Thanks!
Will also try to make a nice looking WAD2 Skin out of them!

this looks incredible! how do I even begin to get something like this on my x1 given that im clueless to installing and making all this unofficial stuff?!

Spb Weather font color always black

I don't know if anyone else has this problem but mine is as
follows:
I have Spb Weather ver. 1.7.0 and WM6. The problem is that the font color of this programs today-plugin is always black no matter what the theme on the phone. And yes, I've gone through most of the different WM6 ROM released here.
This ofcourse means it's impossible to have any darker theme on the phone since you wouldn't see which city is currenty active.
When I was using WM5 and created some themes I got this impression that the font color is set by the OS's theme instead of the today-plugin.
I did go thru registry and all the files created by Spb Weather (those I knew), but couldn't find a spot that would allow me to change the color of the font to something else.
Try searching the forum for:
spb weather black font
My bad, didn't even think about googling *ashamed*

what soft is this...?

Does anyone know what soft is this?(the one that does look like that the battery status and the signal)
It's something for smartphone (non-touch screen). I guess it's skin for Sbsh Facade.
Not sure, but it looks an awful lot like the smartphone version of pointui (www.pointui.com)

This is the portrait version of a Facade theme called Pearl. I don't recall who made the original, but aaroninoraa made the portrait version.
The icons at the top are skinned to SmartMonitor. I don't know if the plugin works for PPC. I've uploaded it so you can disect it.
The original is on the SBSH Facade forums.
Smartmonitor should be included in the zip. Freeware, AFAIK
is there a posibility to use onley the icon bar cuz thats what i realy whant from this homescreen
You could use a custom theme for BatteryStatus to get something similar, and to make it the actual TaskBar, you could use, I forget the name, but Vijay created a tool that removes the bar.
what i need is a software just like the rinku iconbar but to work on wm6.0 standard
Re: the theme you asked about
It's not really an icon bar, AFAIK. It's a theme/wallpaper with images that overlay on top of the faux icons taking their cue from smartmonitor.
DL the file, look at the XML

Realize Weather Icons (for Ifonz, S2U2 and other Apps) by Bluemetalaxe

This is a Set of 47 Weather Icons in Realize-Style that fit to my newest Icon Set. Sorry that I open a new thread because i have no more Space on the first Post of my old thread to upload or show pictures..
This is made especially (but not only) for ifonz, because Sid-Shrunk found a way with mortscript to show the actual Weather with a Icon and temperature and by pressing on the weather icon a forecast on the next four icons appears (!) See more here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439875
1. First ZIP: 96x96 original tranparent PNGs, and 52x52 PNG (optimized for a dark or black ifonz background)
2. NEW: Another Zip with 48 Pixel Icons for Ifonz, because ifonz itself doesn`t render/resize Icons very good
Anyone can use this for any application, even for s2u2 weather. If you want to use this or my other icon sets for ROMS or Apps you don`t need to ask, just give me credits.
The Icons have four different backgrounds (Day, day-snow,night, night snow). I used also the manila/rumball or whatever graphics, so if anyone here or Rumball is the designer of the original weather graphics, please tell it to me. Thank you
I just can say whau,
perfect smooth look. I'm thinkig about changing my iconset to realize look. Hope we'll get a lot of weatherchanges in next days
oh wow they look awesome...... be even more awesome for VGA marsware ... hint hint...... but yeah i really think it's awesome
thank you, glad you like it, united bavarian tech power with Sid-Shrunk
Icons can be used for other weather apps because they are big enough and i made also transparent pngs, but i don´t know how to create a weatherpanel skin.
EDIT: I updated 48x48 Icons for Ifonz, because ifonz itself doesn`t resize Icons very good.
Very nice icons blue, thanks
Great looking icons, I'll definitely be using these
I somehow missed this release, great job blue..
S2U2 and SPB weather
Blue,
Just really took a close look at your realize icons, and I LOVE THEM!!
I would like to use your weather icons for S2U2. I get my weather from SPB weather, and it has all its icons in one png file. I have attached the original, do you have your realize icons in a single strip like this?
Thanks
Your friend Wolf

weather strip
here is the file right out of my gfx/weather directory it is a .png file that I zipped up.
I haven't heard from you in a while, guessing you are very busy on other projects. I attempted to make my own weather stripe. here it is.
My psd file is included in the zip file, incase anyone wants to improve upon it.
oh, thanks Wolf, to say the truth: i simply forgot your request, Sorry. Thanks again for your work!

transparent task par and start menu bar

Could any body get me an application or theme to make my taskbar and start menu bar transparent
I know of a app that will hide the taskbar and bottom bar but when you say transparent you mean invisible??
ok tell me about the app which hide them
Look for Vijay apps, you will find what you need.
but could any one heard about an app that makes them transparent like wm6.5
not possible in WM6 & 6.1
you could try WAD 3, but you'll have to pay for it, and it'll drain your battery faster...
Wisbar Advance can do it (in a way). Use a part of your wallpaper as your taskbar. Not transparant, but perfectly blending with your wallpaper.
Example: http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=11747
As said... not possible in WM6.x.

s2w Blackdrop revised TFL3D

For those who have used my blackdrop in the past, here is an update for the blackdrop theme for tfl3d. I might be late to the TFL3D game... but for those interested its here.
As with the old blackdrop... It will blend with any wallpaper... As we sometimes want a specific background, but a theme might not mix well. The blackdrop's intent is to make it all transition.
Made it a simple theme with the following:
No dotted lines
Translucent focus bars
Translucent buttons (ex sms icons, email icons, envelope, music and so on)
Glass clockface (not a flipclock)
Again my goal was making it easy to blend with any background of your choice...
Made for TFL3D (from a stock sprint)
Install:
Just download and place it in your themes folder.
Use the tfl3d config -> go to appearance -> find the path -> and apply.
Enjoy the 1st simple version!
More updates will follow with different bg imbedded as you see above.
Any comments will be much appreciated. Thanks and enjoy!
****Having troubling with adding the theme... will try again****
Try here for now if interested:s2w Blackdrop revised TFL3D
Here is a matching psshutXp
*Reserved*
looks very fine
Like your theme, but I have just binned TF3D in favour of SPB MS3, but I would still like to use your nice psshutxp skin, I headed over to PPCGeeks but I can't find a download link for that so could you upload that one here please?
Hi, I really like this theme, however I'm running on an HTC Fuze from ATT. I was wondering if this would work on a GSM phone and is there a download link? Thank you.
