You mean the today menu?
Settings => Background

the START menue. i was thinking about this too, maybe it is a black picture file which could be replaced? no idea how to find out.
same with the grey background appearing when you unlock your td2, maybe someone found out how to replace it?

Sorry thought you meant the Home Tab!

The default WM6.1 start menu uses the same background as the Today screen, so you could always use the default menu instead of the TF3D one. There's a registry hack for it somewhere nearby.

do you want to change to welcomehead.192.png??

i think he means when tf3d is active and you hit start you
get a screen with you're favorite programs
i like to know how to chanche this background...

does someone know how to do this now?
can't find anything

a temporary solution is to use my touch x background on all pages, it does the new startmenu to.

How to change icons?

Hello again
Is there any way to change the icons in the programmes menu?
Some of them are low-res, and some of them are just not that nice to look at.
The Total Commander icon is a good example...
In my oppinion it looks like something from a Vic20, or maybe a C64.
So, my question is...
Is it possible to change the icons, and if so - how to do it?
Thanks in advance!
Attached: Screenshot of the icons.

Well, it's a sollution...
Eventhough it's not changing the icons of the programmes themselves, but rather changing the icons of the perticular buttons in the programmes menu.
I'll give it a go, thanks for your answer
Will post back if it works...!

Hmmm, didn't work on my phone...
Made the button I wanted to change white, and the button next to it...
Anyone else have an idea on how to solve this?

You just need a decent graphics app and some art skills mate. Then export your final images as 128x128 png files. You then link your shortcuts to your images via a registry entry. That's the easiest bit lol.
Good luck

No worries mate. One thing I should add - when you save the finished items as png files, save then as 32bit. 24bit is full colour, but no alpha layer, which is what gives it transparency and allows things like nice smooth edges and shadows etc..

I second that request...
But more importantly, that slider theme is quite impressive. I'm really curious about that as opposed to the entire theme.
Beautiful icons, nevertheless.

please look at this thread:

Beginn with the last sites and search for the nickname. He posts there some files.

Well, after vigorously searching for the SLIDER that appears in the pictures above... I've come up empty-handed. I'm obsessing over that SLIDER modification. It's gorgeous.

Thanks for this,
It's a great idea! If you get the chance, would it be possible to do an Opera cab with the attached icons? It would be really appreciated and I know that it would look great!
Thanks in advance

SEARCH THE FORUMS!
That can be done and the thread exists in which that topic is being discussed. I've followed several different sets of instructions on HOW TO edit an individual icon from the slider tabs, and it really isn't that difficult.
Thanks for e-mailing me the slider theme Agamemmnon, I appreciate it.

I have a request. Its an image that matches the colorful stickers slider theme and i managed to track down the original icon set. I had a go at creating it myself. I replaced the image with the one included after i had edited it to be squished as you seem t have to do, however after copying it to windows i had no icon at all. Copying the original back it returned. Is there some sort of signing process ect required. Anyway attached is the .png image

Enyone who have SRS know the icon is ugly but the program is amazing. But I really wanto to change that icon.
Is the last thing to make my rom looking well.
Someone said it's possible vie Registry but i am not sure about that because I am not into that section, but I can do it if someone explain to me how.

Any Idea?

@eclyptos
You must use JWMDIconChanger_v3.1b.
With this app cann you all icon change and rename.

If you can eclyptos maybe a screen shot might help in trying to figure out your problem buddy

do you see the icon of WOW HD Settings? That's the icon which I can't change and I do not understand why!

If you can not see it in JWD then you will need hunt it in the registry & link a PNG file to it.
Have a look at this thread to help pin it down in registry:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6188525&postcount=1
If you have problems finding it you could export & upload parts of the registry tree for us to help.
Other option if you have installed srsWOW via cab is to edit cab/exe icons prior to install.
*JWD tip: some icons show as default JWD paint pallet & no text so you got to guess what they are ! have another good look ...
