Ok I just got my Diamond. I installed the Manila Customizer. I have some questions!
I have been able to install some of the files to add more clocks and stuff, but not others. It's like they are missing a file. Like the Benrus clock, Blackfire clock, or the Metal clock2 for example.
Then there are the ones that are cabs. Do I have uninstall them when I want to use a different clock or does it install them in the Manila program?
I also see themes out there. How does those work? Where do I put them?
Sorry I know this probably seems like stupid questions, but I'm lost!
Thank you,
Susan

well i haven't used mailla3d customizer but i have a tilt and have used manilla 2d customizer to set different themese for m2d. Basically to install a theme (a whole theme clock, background, etc everything) you have to copy the theme to the theme folder under the manilla customizer program folder:
e.g.
Programs ---> M2DC (u will probably have M3DC or tf3dc as diamond has tf3d) --> themes (this is the folder where you put the themes in.
most themes come in .zip format or .m2dct (again in your case it most likely will be .m3dct).
Also if you check out the diamond forum there is a whole thread on the manilla tf3d customizer and also threads on themes for tf3d.

Hi guys..Anyone has any ideas on how to change the themes on the touch2?
Do I need another application like diamond in order to change the theme??
Thanks in advance
anyone can help?
i would say it should be just like the diamond..
give it a try!!
do you mean the color scheme or ... ?
Want to add in new theme like those from special created themes by Djoub..Not just change the color..
For diamond, need to use an extra software in order to change..
hey
not a mega user but i do own an ELF with the new manila2d from the mega installed
to change the M2D theme you need to change the graphics files in the windows directory that are linked to M2d. (the new M2d 2.0 thread in dev/hacking has some user created themes there to show you what i mean)
try that thread for more info....
i hope that this is it:

unfortunately that isn't the right website i'm afraid.... i'll post the link below
here is the skins thread

Select the Theme you would want from the listed.
You can as well select the items you want on the desktop by cliking on 'Items' tab.
Had a little extra time on my hands and decided to make a couple of clocks for manila 2.5. First of all thanx to the creator of CFC GUI .60.35 - THE Manila/TF3D Image Editor and NRGZ28 for his carbon clock. I went ahead and made two variations of the carbon clock, a black carbon and blue carbon.
Here they are....
11/23/09 - Graffiti Clock
Really nice, but for what manila version are those clocks?
Since you see the shortcuts on the home page I guess it's the 2.5 brand.
That's looking real good!
I see that's winmo 6.5.1 that you are running, but what about the rest of the UI? that's a theme? It seems that the fonts and shortcuts down there are different.
What did you use to that effect?
Thanks!
Thanks! iam using the jw black theme for windows. the task bar i found while searching through the forums. And the shortcuts are from the manila 2.5. I just went ahead and edited the slider, icons, and clock. Still got some work to do before I completely customized my device!
[edit] nevermind! a search on jw black theme gave me a good result but! the wallpaper is real nice, any chance you could give more info on it? Thanks!
Looks real good, especially the 3rd one.
I am using the clock, but would like to get all the rest (at least the wallpaper and font).
Any chance you can be more specific about files names or maybe you could share what you created? That would be really great
THANKs .
not a problem, iam using the kabel system font, found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532633
and ive attached the wallpaper iam using.
as for the slider ill post that one as soon as iam done editing it. iam compiling icons that coincide with windows mobile (i.e. opera for the internet tab, zune for the music player, outlook express for email tab and so forth) it should be done soon, just editing the taskbar and softkey skins to match the slider.
Thank you for all the info
And for your hard work!
Cheers
any chance in making the "AM~PM" on the clock white also?
yeah new clock for my sense 2.5
Thanks a lot have been looking for a new clock for my sense 2.5 long time and yeah yours works.
Nice look these clocks!
here are the manila files for a white am and pm on the clock. just unzip and copy to windows directory.
any tutorial
Hi bruc410,
could you provide me a short tutorial how to make a clock skin for Manila 2.5?
or is there any tutorial in this forum?
Thanks!
You need photoshop, a manila editor (preferably cfc-gui-only-0.60.35), and finally the original manila 2.5 file, found here http://code.google.com/p/manilavga/...ManilaOriginalWVGA-2_5_19211619_0.7z&can=2&q=. All you have to do is unzip the manila files and then open up manila editor and select the core folder from your manila 2.5 file. From there just save the original clock files to your computer as a png then edit them to your liking and replace them with the manila editor. Finally copy the edited manila files to your windows directory. Thats about it. Sorry if my directions are a little thrown together but i pretty much figured this out on my own. The good thing is once you get the hang of it you can customize the entire manila 2.5. Hope this answers your question.

Yeah, thanks, meanwhile I have made some search, and found the same tuts
cabbage
my only question is how do you made the cab file?
I use a program called quick cab. real easy and straight forward
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?
Manila Slider and background
Can someone please make a cab for me? I can't handle the editing of the manila files...
One only with the background and one with all files (I don't know how the Manila Slider pressed file is named...)
I've attached the images for you:

Hi!
I'm using CHT 2.0 an I'm now looking for the wallpaper of the programs page (pressing windows button) in Artemis-ROM V50. I would like to use the blue gradient wallpaper on all sides of the HTC Sense UI. Unfortunately I think these graphics are not part of the ArtemisGreenBlack theme because they are not in the cab file.
Can someone tell me where I can find the graphics for wallpaper, taskbar and softkeybar as see on the program page in the named theme?
With many thanks.
NM
if it can help .. there should be a CHT option to set the same background in all tabs (otherwise you could use "back ground for all" cab attached), and serarch in these sites a wallpaper of your taste
stock bacgrounds are stored in \my documents\wallpapers (if I rember the WWE folder name..)

Hola, since your using CHT and Artemis, there shouldn´t be any problem...
Besides what jjollyroger already wrote, maybe I don´t understand your question, but if you are refering to the "turqoise" WP, it´s in the ROM, Windows directory and it´s one of the called "stwater" image files (Default_stwater_480_800.gif & Default_stwater_800_480.gif)
Regarding taskbar and softkeybar, this will depend on the theme you´re using.
If you are using Artemis Greeen Black, then the files are the following:
Taskbar: "art_gb_Taskbar.png", "HTCBlack_taskbar.png"
Softkey: "art_gb_SKBackground.png", "art_gb_SKButton.png", "art_gb_SKButtonDisabled.png", "art_gb_SKButtonSelected.png" and also one "xyz_softkeybar.png" depending on the last theme used (probably "classicblue_softkeybar.png").
For both you can also check in the registry to see which files are beeing used:
1. HKCU\software\Microsoft\Today\TaskBar\TaskBarThemeImage
2. HKCU\software\Microsoft\Today\Softkeybar\SoftkeyBarThemeImage
