taskbar at 240x16...
noticed the double edge of Planet Earth on the first pic?

Actually, it's 18px height.

YES! it looks perfect at 240x18... thanks Livven for the correction.
so how come 240x26 is used by theme makers?
taskbar at 240x18...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
spot the difference...
taskbar 240x16...
taskbar 240x18...

I think because the old taskbar had 26px in height... and, actually, most theme makers did not change the original taskbar image, and thus didn't care for the height of the taskbar.
In fact, MS has also left the softkey-highlight images from the older COM2 WM6.5 builds in their default theme (another legacy ).

thanks again Livven!

Terrific work.
I'm curious. Why use Weather Panel when WAD2 has a weather function built in?
SIDE NOTE: The new WAD2 is pretty insane with what you can do with it. Where's the XDA love?
who the f... is Asus ?

Apple Black&White icons and background (WVGA)

I am one of those people who doesn't like my phone looks like a colourfull Christmas tree. So I made myself a black and white theme in Wisbar Advance Desktop.
I like to share the apple icons (including the dock..for WVGA Portrait) and backgrounds here with you as well as the volume/signal and battery icon which I used.
Example how it's look like: (don't mind the quality, for some reason it is in low resolution)
{
"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"
}
Everything plus some extra backgrounds are here below in the zipfile.
Cheers,
Arnold
How does one install this??
Like I said, this is not a theme cabfile, but just something I made in WAD2, so all manual work... these are just the icons and backgrounds I used.
In Author Mode in Wisbar Advance you can set all this together.
Cheers,
Arnold
hello
very nice. good pictures

Tester Needed!

If you are using WM 6.5 on your device and could test a small mod for me i would be very grateful.
See HERE
Thanks.
Your idea is great, but maybe you should reconsider how to solve the taskbar and softkeybar differences between 6.5 and 6.5.X. I don't know if the taskbar really looks wider after using your mod or it's just an illusion, but on the softkeybar definitely shows up a small gap. Here's my result (before and after):
{
"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"
}
Thanks for the feedback. The taskbar is the correct size but it looks like the Softkey bar isn't. I'll look into it.
EDIT: The Softkey bar is definately the right size. Not sure why it's displaced on your device though :/

if you want that you should take part of your background for bottom Taskbar!
install a rom that runs 6.5X
That has the start menu on the bottom left of the screen like that and most of the icons in roms look similar to that.
