My apologies if I'm creating a duplicate thread here but I did a quick search and couldn't find anything similar otherwise I'dve just posted my work in there.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who is bored of looking at grey tiles on a black background when using TF3D so I figured why not make something a little more pleasing to the eye that still fits with the TF3D layout.
I couldn't think of anything more pleasing to my eyes than the delectable Miss Jessica Simpson so I thought I'd start there!
Here's a couple of screenshots to show how it looks and of course the wallpaper file itself
Please feel free to add your own contributions!
P.S. I know there's a cab file out there to make the clock semi-transparent and I could have used a bigger picture, but the numbers would still cover most of the good bits of the picture IMO that's why I formatted it like this.
I've seen a variety of screenshots of HD2s with alternate status icons (like the ones shown in this post's screenshots: forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4871358). I've searched and searched and I can't find out how to customize these from the standard, simple, ugly white stock ones. Any tips appreciated!
Thanks!

Can anyone point me in the right direction for these?
Thanks,

You can either continue to search for somebody that has done it and released the files. Or you can start looking into modding the manila files yourself to what you want. The files are not unique to the Leo any WinMo 6.5 notification icons will work.
Thanks for the info. I'm brand new to Windows Mobile and the HD2 so I'm not sure I'm up for trying to make my own mods yet. I'm trying to learn from what others have done and then hopefully be able to give back later.
So, are these things typically referred to as 'notification icons'? I found some custom packages under that name, but they all seemed to be the big icons for the programs, not the little status icons. I couldn't tell though whether those packages would include both the big icons and the small status icons or not. Any idea?
Thanks,

To get these icons first you need to install Maxmanilla. search the thread for maxmanilla and after that you can choose your icons for notifications.
Notification Icons
Install max manilla and then you can change the default notification by the one I have attached or to any icon you want. Search for the icons on net. A few icons are attached which I use.

Thanks for the tips and guidance! I really appreciate the help. However, I'm not looking for the big icons for the various programs, I'm looking for the little status icons at the top of the display (signal strength, wireless connected, bluetooth, headset, etc). The ones on the T-Mo HD2 are just the basic white 'line drawing' ones from HTC. I've seen some screenshots here (like in the like I posted above) where these little icons are very nice, rich, colorful, almost 3D looking. Those are the ones I'm trying to find. Does MaxManilla have those too?
Thanks!

Ah Sorry, I thought you are talking about notification icons. The icons which you are referring are part of taskbar. first you need to check your windows version If you are still on the stock rom or installed a coocked rom 6.5 then search for taskbar 6.5. If you are on 6.5.x then search for taskbar 6.5.x
A lot of customization links are included in the below thread. just search for taskbar for your version.

Awesome! That's what I was looking for. I was searching for 'status icons' since that's how HTC refers to them in the manual. Didn't think that was called the taskbar.
Thanks again!

Hi Guys,
I need help - But that aside for a moment...
I've been trying to modify a clock so that I have a just the basic marks and maybe a white ring... However, it appears that my GIMP 2.6 skills are nothing...
Most things I've managed to modify by myself, but this has got the better of me. So here I am seeking the skills of an artist. Please if you can it would be much appreciated.....
I'm using Co0kie's Home tab 1.8.
Thanks again
Sorry for my English.
No Takers?
...a picture says more than a thousand words...
No screenshot and/or pic of the clock you need transparent?
Are you after a specific clock to be modified, or just requesting any clock that roughly fits that description??
I done one which is mainly transparent, see attached .zip file with the manila files in it.
The image below is what it looks like (but I have now removed the original pin in the middle so you will not see it like you can in the picture).
Figured I'd take my first stab at Framework mods in the form of Battery Icons!!!
Alright, with all I've been seeing about Honeycomb recently I decided to go with a hexagon shape as the base.
Did some searching, but it seems you cannot make a flashable file to change png's inside a .apk? would love for someone to prove me wrong there. Soo here are the .png files for you to change em yourself.
Lemme know what you think.
Black Notification Bar
White-on-Green
Black-on-White
White Notification Bar
White-on-Black
Radial-White-on-Black
Taking requests for other colors.
Second Set
More Battery Icons
Nice work.
Doh! now I find the 10% increment mod... looks like its time to start over...
Thank you

Hi, could anybody point me in the direction of learning how to make homescreen applications links/shortcuts in the form of text with icons? I am aware of how to use Simple Text to create purely text icons, but that only works to create icons that are 1x1 - whereas the most shortcuts with icons and text are more like 1x3. Attached is an image of what I am trying to achieve, I've searched high and low both on here and on google, but can't seem to find any instruction on how to do it. Thanks in advance.
Also, first post. Hi.
