Slider icons - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Any application to change the slider icons? I know HDWall can do this , but it changes the theme also, so I need an application that can just change the slider icons only.
Also I know that the manila files could be changed but it will be much more easier wit just a .cab file !
Thank you in advanced !

Co0kies HT Lockscreen

I was just wondering if the locks in Co0kies HT were customisable like the analogue clocks. The windows lock in particular could look very nice if the icon could be skinned.
Any idea?
The CHT Lockscreenfiles are manila files:
7A4563E2_manila Windows Slider
24B65A89_manila Background Manila Slider
26082591_manila Windows Slider pressed
50F29E37_manila HD mini Slider
61515C17_manila Manila Slider
They can be changed like the analog clock files.
That's great... Now to find someone who can design custom locks, I'm clueless with that stuff .
Ask Dinik. He already made a lockscreen for Windows and in HD mini style.
Dinik is already too busy with too many projects, he gets tons of requests everyday so I doubt he would have time for this.

Actually, any design that you like can be used as the lockscreen slider. I myself have made a bat slider for the Cookie lockscreen. See screenshot below.

I would like to ask the following :
Tried and replaced the default manila file for slider icon (26082591_manila and 61515c17_manila) with two of dinik slider icons , but I came up with a messed up slider (look at screen shot) ... I assume that the dimentions of dinik icons are different ... any way to fix that ?
Thanks for your answers in advanced !!!
P.S. kangmas ... please link the sun weather icon ... THANKS !
Take the old image in the manila file as a template for the new image. And check the image file in CFC Gui. In "replace" it's the last file as standard. You have to change this. Seems like you took the false image (windows slider and manila slider are different).

Open the old image in your photo editing program (I'm using PaintShop Pro). Then add a new layer for working. In this you have to insert the new images (for example by copy and paste). Then you can adjust the new image over the old. At last delete the layer with the old image and save the file. With CFC Gui you can import the new image in the corresponding manila file. I'll attach the necessary old image files.

Hi mate ... never been good at editing pictures ... I never worked with Paintshop pro or any kin d of software for editing ... so I downloaded it and tried everything in my powers but I really cant get it done. So can you please teach me on how to add layers and replace an image with another ....
If you don`t have time to do this , can you please make me two files for CHT lockscreen ? Thank you in advanced !
Here are the files I need to change :
If you can add the slider background it would be amazing, because when I change the option to Windows default lockscreen in CHT I can`t add the background in any way ... and if I select the Manila style lock I don`t like the slider there.
Thank you very much !

Yeah I think a lot of people are using Anastasia and these locks would fit perfectly. If anyone could skin them to cookies HT that would be great (if dinik doesnt mind of course)

I'll ask Dinik (made it already a little bit modded for myself).
Dinik said, he will make a lockscreen in his CHT theme. We have only to wait some days.
I hope we can get different elements from his theme, I really only want his CHT lock and clock.
Can someone make a skin using the lock from the dusk theme? Also could it be done in different colours?

You might be better off using CFC-GUI to edit the manila files for the slider. You can't make cabs with it but you can do all your personal mods using that program very easily. If you want a free cab maker, there is Quick Cab 2.0 (just search on XDA). All very easy to use.

[Q] Making a transparent slider

Ok, so I tried to make a transparent or glass-like slider so that the background could be seen without affecting the tab icons though. The result is that the slider is now shown Black, although it is transparent (as you can see in the images below)!!!
Is it possible to make it somehow? I've from some members that it is not.
However I found icons for the clock and weather that are transparent as you can see (credits go to user antonda).
So what the heck???
hey!
very nice thing you tried to do there,however how did you manage to make the clock and below the clock transparent?I'm, using htc touch 2.If you can give me some tips on PM,it would be great.Thanks.
As I mentioned before all credits for my theme go to antonda and his theme that I'm using can be found here [SKINS]NEW Touchflo 2D 2.0 ONLY(Weather/Flipclock) Skins/Themes, posts 1145 and 1146.

Thank You for that link
With Jumba's "I C Thru U" app u can have a full clear slide bar.
Alternatively (manually) you can edit "hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png" file under "windows" folder!
You cant have "Glass" effect (semi-transparency) on M2D slider and let me explaine you why: M2D seems to be capable of reading only png8 files for slide bar, any png that you ll load to it it ll auto-converted to png8 so M2D can read it and you ll get your transparency png as an RGB colored image!
What is png8 file? It's a png at 8bit (256 colors) also known as web-png. Transparency at 8bit (256 colors) is pixelated so it sucks and it hasn't "Glass" effect in any case!
I hope i helped you!
Damn! And I thought we were getting close to find a solution... what I don't like with Jumba's app is that "cut-off" effect that is created when you slide the slider
Any way thank you very much for the info!!

im not really get it! what did u mean with "cut-off" effect? u mean that in "sliding" bar still stays invisible? can u post some screens?
With Jumba's app, as you can see in the first image, the slider image looks fine, but when i slide and go to the location for example, the slider image looks like it is cut-off and moved. It is not aligned with the rest of the background.
And as I understand there is no solution to that!

Aw ok! Thats cause Jumpa's app actually "cuts" a 240x38 part of image and replace it to M2D's slider. Maybe there is a solution for that im on it...
EDIT: I manage to make an Alpha Transparent PNG8 but still M2D denied to read transparent effect...
@ VIRUSPLUS:so,I I understand that with M2D you cannot have transparent slider,but you can with I C Thru(the thing is,I couldn't make it work on my mega).The question is,if it's this alternatively way (to edit hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png) how can I edit that png file,in order to have a nice and no trouble transparent slider?

You can't have transparent slider in any case.
You can have just a fake "transparency" with I C Thru or by editing "hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png" just for home tab! What this means and what I C Thru does? Look at image that i attach
aaa..ok ,now I understand.Thank you for clarification
ok, I hope I uploaded the right cab file (I have a little chaos here...). Please backup your files!
I created this theme from two other themes from this site (Jumba Bluesteel and Black Waterdrops (sadly, I can't find it, but I used parts of the slider from there)).
My homescreen is nearly empty, because I want to see my background image. If you have problems with the homesettings.xml please let me know.
If I understand you correctly, this theme should help you with your slider problem.
Bye
Caessa
P.S. I added to images. I don't have a screenshot tool so sorry for the bad quality. As you can see the number for the sms isn't quite nice, but I hasn't been in the mood for the correction
Your theme
Hello, your cab was all wrong in the Home Setting, but I put it in place and I created this theme, which is fine, try it without fear!:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954584&page=3
I'm sorry... I was so happy when I got the theme on my mobile and forget to clean up my hard drive and have too many versions...
But I hope your theme helps everyone who wants a transparent slider

Try the Metro Theme XAP from Nickg and go to Custom settings and select system tray. You can also change the background, tiles and text colors with preset themes or completely customize the colors with the app too.
