Tester Needed! - Windows Mobile Themes

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 :/

"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",

Icons in the top? Where with color?

Hello, i saw some pictures from some ROMs that have colored icons for network, activesync, volume etc that are coloured and not the classic black and white.... Where can i find such icons?
Example here:
{
"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"
}
Here's the thread for it on xda.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437307
The thread is a bit out of control though, over 200 pages of information.
Also, see this thread here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=54514
Please note, you need to know if you are CDMA or GSM for your phone in order for any mods regarding the taskbar to work properly.
Good luck!
That was so helpful!!! I installed some icons and i am testing other icons too!
Thank you very much HTCLeener!!!

How can I move a taskbar icon? XML maybe?

I'm enjoying WM6.5, and I've installed wkTask. The only problem is it creates this little square in the top right corner which covers my battery icon. I haven't found a way to get rid of this square, so instead I just wanna move my battery icon over a few pixels, you can see here:
{
"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"
}
How can I move it?
thanks!
never heard about moving std taskbar icons apart from adding others
guess you could try forcing the device to show the clock on the taskbar
but anyway non of those things are set by xml that code was written way before
xml came around

WM6.5: The correct size of _taskbar.png is NOT 240x26 for QVGA.

it's 240x16.
taskbar at 240x26...
{
"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"
}
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!

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.
