Have a look at the following post for the best phone skins I've seen - by ieuz.

It's in Cab format so if you're keen on making your own, (and you don't want ieuz's) then it should be a good guide.

Does anyone have this orange Today theme? It looks pretty cool IMO and I'd love to get my hands on it:
http://www.pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=508
Looks cool, mainly coz of the orangeness -).
doese anyone have this theme?
Wasn't this in the Eten rom?
V
Think youre right vijay - i remember that someone has rebuild it for htc-devices - i think it has been offered or linked in this forum.
Let me think about it...
Hehe, this is another "use the search function!"-post!
Here you are : http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm
There are lots of other cool designs inspirated by the eten-dialer... But i think its only for QVGA.
There also was a todaytheme from the eten, but i cant find it. But it does not look that cool like the skin on the picture - i dont think it exists in that way - this skin only was an example for ms' adds, that even the skins now are costumizable - for commercial reasons...
Hmm...that's too bad there's no Today theme, as my device is non-converged, I can't make use of those amazing phone dialer skins.
Hi, I'd like to make my fonts look like the ones that they advertise with the crossbow. I mean i'd like to have my whole system with those fonts but i don't know how. I've done tons of searching but i could not find anything that would help me change the fonts of my whole system (unless i build my own rom with those fonts but that's too complicated for me). Is there another way? i've found some threads that's suppose to change the fonts but it messed up my fone, others do not change the whole system but just some fonts. All WM6 roms that i've used do not have those fonts that I'm talking about. I'd like to make it like the fonts on this picture. Can someone help me please?
Is there anyone out there who can help/suggest something/make me read another thread/tell me it's not possible/whatever...?anyone?

I don´t think it is so easy - but what about cleartype. The font doesn´t look so different for me. Just cleartype?? Don´t know.
Start - settings - screen - enable cleartype.
And there are registry hacks to enable it also in landscape mode. (Registrywizard or HTweakC)
thanks, but i already have cleartype on. not quite the same but i really appreciate ur reply. With over 240+ views, i finally received a reply. At least i can say ur one of the few people out there who genuinely lend a helping hand to others. I really appreciate it thanks again
Looking at the screengrabs I think they're from a VGA device (a HTC Universal for example), which is why the fonts looks slightly smoother and more rounded. The font on the XDA Exec I borrowed looked a lot nicer than my XDA Mini-S just because it was higher res, despite the actual screen real-estate being used in the same way (IE. although the screen was higher res, everything was larger to compensate). The effect I saw looked just like in some of your screenshots - particularly the first portrait one.
thanks paulmdx!i guess that explains it. it probably looks different because of the vga screen.Thanks, i guess i'll just have to give up on wishing that my fonts be like that
Sorry for my late response...I was suppose to reply back to you after you reminded me that the fonts could be changed...I managed to change the fonts by adding the files to the font folder in the \windows\fonts directory...the extention you are looking for is .ttf...I tried to use a font with a different extention and it didn't work...also if you are looking for fonts then your best bet is http://dafont.com ...they have the best looking fonts, and they have popular fonts used in movies, video games, etc...the one that I am running is aiight, and the one that i put on my girl's is the Walt Disney font...one more thing, after you put the fonts on your ppc you will need to have a program to change the font for you, or you'll need to either change some registry key to enable it (I don't know the keys), or use a program like Tweaks2k2.net to change it...it's not a free program, but you'll be able to use the program 3 times before you have to register it...I don't if you were looking for the font used in WM6 or you were looking for a way to change fonts on the ppc, but anyways here's some info for those who wanted to do this...
Btw this only changes some fonts, but not all of them...it's better this way just in case you put a font that is blurry, too small, etc...while I was trying out fonts for my girl's phone, this happened to me...if all the fonts on the ppc were changed, I wouldn't have been able to find the options easily to change the font...looks awesome though...even my keyboard font changed...my cousin said I'm ghetto because my font looks like tagging lol...
Missing font!
While we are on this topic.....Some of my fonts are messed up!
I installed the 10 button Comm Manager and couldn't get the WLAN to activate. I then went back to the 8 button Comm Manager. Later I found a fix for the 10 and uninstalled the 8. When I did it messed up my fonts. Does anyone have the stock fonts they can send me?
Shep
So full of questions today. I downloaded and quickly fell in love with the default green skin provided on this forum (I believe it was by a gentleman named Paul... not 100% sure on that one, but thank you to whoever made my Wizard look lovely). I was wondering if there happened to be a dialer skin that went along and matched the lovely green.
Thanks!
A good place to start looking is >HERE<, where you will find loads of great skins - all provided free and gratis by SwampCat....an excellent skin designer. I'm pretty sure I've seen some scary green dialer skins on there...you're bound to find one you like!!
Cheers,
Mark.
You might want to try the attached dialpad skin, too.
Is anyone aware of what those skins looks like And if they would work with MS3 ? I've put one up for those who would like to take a look.
Their names go like so : (B)MS2.1 Diamond Theme
(C)...
(D)...
(E)...
to (H)...
I just can't find pics of them, please help !
Thanks
And an other one with just the .dat files and fonts....

Wow, see what you mean, realy nice theme! Like the style of animation.
Be interesting to see if any one picks this up
it would be really cool. i would be willing to compile all of the icon packs, sliders, and wallpapers if somebody was willing to help me put it together as a full fledged theme
ive seen the fallout theme created by horrorview and star, and it came to be an amazing theme in a short amount of time. i feel like the hd2 doesn't have a whole lot of theme customization for just the stock rom, and a few quality themes seem to be in order :]
Yeah when I had my G1 someone had made a BUUF theme and it was always my favorite, I love that animation style too. Keeping an eye on this one
if somebody could kindly lead me in the direction i would need to go to get the programs and tutorials on creating themes for leo. id be more than happy to make it myself but i dont know where to start or what to look for. i have all the icons and what not together, i just need to know how to edit manila in order to create a proper theme
This one is for tf3d 2.o but it may help you get started.

i have seen that one before, but all he really did was change the slider and the internet tab. the clock was from a custom rom i believe, however im not a huge fan of the clock anyways.
i do have a slider already on my phone with actual buuf icons, and i have all of my icons replaced with high res buuf .png's. but now im to the point where i want to modify sense in order to get a more complete feel to the theme. i have some buuf wallpapers too.
really all i need to do is some color modifications on manila, get a more cartoony flip/analog clock(s), perferably the buuf clock used on android.
there really isn't a whole lot to do honestly.
ill take a screenshot of what i have right now when i get home from work
edit: actually i think the desire flipclock might fit pretty well. ill just have to see

(Sorry for my english Hungarian is my first language.) I have the iphone dialer,keyboard,etc... I don't know what size png or other pic you need. I post a few png and let me know what I can help with. I'm new to the thc hd2 so I need to get used to it after the iphone... I think using ssh with iphone was easier then win mobile. If you send me files you need to buuf I can change them for you... I have Adobe CS5 Master collection to do the work...
