Anyone know a WM6 theme previewer?

I'm trying to find a TSK previewer for on the PPC (not on the PC). Although I've renamed my themes, they're all of ladies in (mostly) bikinis, so there's a limit to the descriptions I can use! Does anyone know of a program that will run on the PPC and show me a thumbnail of the theme so I can choose without having to load each one in turn?
I've been searching for ages for this without luck, but I know someone's going to point me to an existing thread - so I'm going to apologise now if it does exist and I've missed it!
Thanks.

Download ThemeGenCe and then open them up in there and you'll be able to see what they look like on your PC. You can also then edit them if you want with it also, or even make your own.

Not quite what I'm after
Thanks for the suggestion, Xeno1, but I've already got an application to preview the themes on my PC - I'm after one to preview them on my phone when I'm out and about.
Thanks again for the reply though.

This is an old post I know but wasn't answered and I was looking for something similiar myself. Here is my suggestion
BVRP Theme Manager v2
It runs on your PPC and it creates previews of your themes and caches them in the form of JPGs with the extension PTM. Its great for previewing them and allows you to display them in multiple views:
- List
- 2x2 grid
- 4x4 grid
- 8x8 grid
- 16x16 grid
- Full screen
The only problem is its a little slow and awkward to create the previews if you have a lot of new TSKs. You have to view it for it to create the preview, so in the 8x8 grid it will only create previews for the 64 themes in view. If you have additional themes you have to move the cursor.
Pocket Theme Manager also has a theme rotation feature but it keeps the whole program in the memory for this (about 1MB RAM--way too much). Also it doesn't handle going back n forth between QVGA and VGA themes. You are much better off using ShantzTodayChanger (which you can find in General > Developer forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311173

Chome Weather 2.0

FYI, CHome Weather 2.0 works on the VOX. Please follow the link to see the original thread in the Excalibur forum.

Hello...just downloaded this version of CHome Weather and it looks amazing...great job. There's only one problem, probably related to the 240x320 cpr file because, like I already read in the excalibur forum, there's an issue in 240x320 where the background looks a little odd and doesn't fit the area like it supposed to. But again amazing job...keep it up
EDIT: I've just used a version of the 240 x 320 cpr file already used in another version of your plugin and it works great now

I was just now testing the other layouts and there are some issues:
- I realized that everytime i change the layout, it doesn't matter the cpr 240x320 file i did put there because when the layout is changed the cpr file is kind of replaced by the one corresponding to the sellected layout.
- In the HTC and Iphone layout, it shows always an icon with a cross below the icon of the current weather, instead of showing the icon corresponding to the weather.
- In regular layout, the gold and silver backgrounds don't work well in 320 x 240.
- In the regular layout, in the 1 and 3 layouts, I can't see the hi and low temperature.

Yeah, you'll have problems with the portrait layouts.

Is it possible to fix the problem with portrait?? That is the last thing, that keeps me from donating.

I am so happy with this program. I worked as Organic M's test subject to get this working. I can't say I notice the problem you guys are talking about in regards to portrait mode.
This is what I see:

have the author, removed the files from the location... I am unable to get those...
Can someone help plzzzzzzz!!!!!!!
Thanks

There are 2 links in the main post at the top of this thread.
The first one is the weather program
The second one is all the files that need to be installed to /windows on your device

Davis,
From your post, it looks like that screen is in ladscape mode. Portrait is taller than wider, yours looks wider than it is taller.

Thanks a lot.. I found the same at the post. I was just eager to get Weather update on my VOX...So got carried away...
Thanks

Well if you put it that way, you'll definitely NOT get me to fix the portrait layouts. How about.. "here's a small donation and small request... I would really appreciate it if you could work on the portrait layouts(which is a major PITA) so this works properly on my phone".

Well then I Only wanted to know if it is possible to do it. But I can live without it. I can look outside to see the weather. You know I made a lot of stuff for the Vox...but I never received ANY donation!!!

works beatifull. got no issues with any layout (i'm using plain black background). excellent job!
the only question i have is if it is possible to manually edit order of appearance on home screen somehow as i could do it in standard homescreens in _home.xml file?

This is definitely NOT what I wanted to happen here. I worked with Organic M to get this app to work with our phone models and he was nice enough to help us out.
This is far from the thanks that he deserves, since the app is designed for an entirely different model.
Why so serious? can't we all just... get along?

I think the Chome Configurator will allow you to change the order of Slides on your Home Screen.

I have no idea what you are talking about....
???

As I said I only wanted to know if it is posible nothing more. And I just wanted to clarify that people here are not thankful! I really do apreciate his work. And the work of all the other coders and cookers! I hope you understand my point!

Does this plugin use necessarily the whole width of the screen, or is it possible to customize its size or layout (present conditions, 2-days forecasts, 5-days forecasts...)?
At present I'm using Fizz Weather with Orange plugin on my Wings, in order to show an analoug clock and weather forecasts next to it (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=89987&d=1212446950); will it be possible to make the same thing with Chome Weather?

So... is anyone still interested in making this work better with the Vox ? Maybe ask some of your ROM cookers to look at the policies in the registry and ask them remove the restricts that don't allow cab files to copy files to the \windows directory ? Then I wouldn't have to make two separate .cab files when I released a new version That, and if anybody wants to help test the portrait layouts, we can make this happen.

Yes it would be great to see the weather plugin fully working on the Vox...that thing about the restrictions I never understood that because after checking myself the registry many times, I saw that the restrictions were disabled and the thing about installing files in the windows folder still remains a problem...

its basically just crop and resize like you said, but!
i've found out that 1920x1080 (or same aspect) resolution pictures, work the best for two resons. First, they are HD and secondly, all you have to do is cut a little part of the image (top or bottom) and resize it to 1440x800 without destroying the "feel" of the image. Check the image below, "remove" the red line, and you'll get what i mean.
more walls coming soon

more wallpapers uploaded. Check the 1st post for link~

These pics look nice with CHT. Problem is when you swipe left or right the taskbar/softkey image doesn't change. Anyone know how to make the these images follow when swiping?

Special request, HELP, Please.

Hello to everyone,
I’m a newbie HTC HD2 owner, my phone is a Tmous leo original ROM 2.13.531.1(90963) WWE, Manilla 2.520121412.2 and I have these two custom images (240x320.gif).....
......and I tried to use them as an animated lockscreen wallpaper and doesn’t work, also I tried to use them as an animated home wallpaper and doesn’t work either.
I would greatly appreciate if someone is kind enough to help me make this work in my phone.
Thanks in advance.

Hi kurt-willems,
Thank you for reply.
1st. No, I don't use CHT. (I wish to, but I can't for the moment)
2nd. I searched arround and I only saw an animated one for "U2S2" lockscreen, but I don't know if could be any for the original lockscreen.
3th. If I can't use any of them as a lockscreen, I'll be more than happy to use them as an animated wallpaper like the fish tank I'm using thanks to Whiskeybro and this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619450
Also I resized my costum animated gifs from 240x320 to 432x576 size and now fix perfectly the phone screen, but no animation at all
Well, I hope someone could help me to get it work right.
Thank you for your help.

Hi, any idea?

Also I resized my costum animated gifs from 240x320 to 432x576 size and now fix perfectly the phone screen, but no animation at all

You can't just resize an animated image in my experience. There's some "magic" that needs to be done to do it properly even though your image editing program seems to be doing it it only does it on one frame and only saves that frame.

Hi Airborne Aircrew,

[PC APP] RediBootA. Now in English!! [Change Resolution of yours olds Bootanimations]

ONLY RUNS ON WIN 7 AND XP (SP3)
Request: Permissions administrador of course....
I bring you an app for the PC, which allows you to return to give resolution your olds Bootanimation that you have of ancient terminals (The idea is born of spending all the work of bootanimation in the Desire, to the HOS).
Only it is necessary to bear in mind screen´s resolution that we have. Or that let's want to put.
Since well ...this aplication is in Spanish, native language of the creator. But if you wish it, it will be translated. Only he has to ask for it, although it is very intuitive in his handling. Yeaah!! it´s simple. Look at that....

Here I leave to them a Video - tutorial.

English Version: https://sourceforge.net/projects/josnaro/files/setup_rediboota(ig).exe/download
This one is capable of editing your bootanimation in which it is a base in repetitions, speed of the Frames, etc...
If you have the folders with the corresponding files, it is capable of extracting the Zip to substitute.
Here it is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594033
Well, that´s all. I hope that they should enjoy it, should make good use of her, and comment as it they was....
It is a good tool for developers, fodder ...... takes a lot of work from them.
Greetings.​

thanks,
easy to use, although I don`t speak spanish,
but I wonder, the original bootanimation.zip is 1.8 MB, and the resized one 43 MB
I checked original one, pngs are 360X640, desk.txt is 720X1280.
Installed resized one, it`s working, but stutters a lot, (I don`t wonder, because of package size)
Now changed original bootanimation desk.text size to 540X960, and installed this one, working like a charme, no stuttering at all, and animation quality is good.
I guess, if the pngs have to enlarged a lot, the package size gets to big.

Hello.
The case is to know: how big are the pngs? because they seem that they are not optimized, or that the original Bootanimation, they have too many photos.
It is normal that the size is bigger when you extract the Zip. Since the pictures are fattened...
But this bundle is too big....
I think that it has too many photos.... Is it possible?
Anyway, thanks for proving it and commenting....
Greetings..
Promptly it will be traduced..

I'm not at home at the moment, and can't check, later when I'm at home I'll try different boot animations, I also guess it depends on the original boot animation I use.

There is a new version of RedibootA.
In this one we have the quality option....
And it has an English vesión raised to the post #1
