I read on another post to get the glossy black theme, by changing this string.
Code:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color\BaseHue=dword:0 default b0d57b in the MB rom.
my problem is that only change the top and bottom bar to black.. I also want to know if anyone knows the string to change the side bars and start drop menu to black or clear cause I use pocketbreeze and ilancher. thank you for input.
even if you change it through the registry, its gonna go back if you change the wallpaper or anything. Right now im working on a permanent black theme but havent been able to have any success.
I think it has something to do with the shell32.exe that I cannot modify with reshacker or Resource editor.
Anyone got any ideas?
Searching for black.
yeah after I use the registry string, the top and bottom bars of wm6 works as black and glossy but the side bars...and inbetween lines when you have other programs installed such as pocketbreeze and ilauncher the lines are still blue from the theme that comes with MB rom is there anyone to have them clear so it looks more tidy? or trying to get rid of that colour to black. As for pocket breeze if anyone wants to remove the lines in the tabs...you have to edit the skin.ini file.
Try This?

This theme, cyclic_blackbars.tsk has very black, shiny bars.
I don't know how it does it, because when I look at the menubar color setting in SKTools it says 137, but if you have any other theme up and you plug in 137 in the menubar color setting, you don't get this shiny black.
Maybe you can take the theme apart and figure more out from it.

I have not been able to duplicate shiny black with BaseHueExpress, nor have I been able to create a turquoise with it that really matches the Crossbow theme color.

I think this theme may have come from one of Molski's packages, so it may be in that Molski theme pack, but just the one I like, that has the shiny black bars, cool black-to-white shading on menu dropdowns and on popups, and a cool black,blue and gray wallpaper is below:
just make your basehue value to anything between 160 and 175 and u'll have shiny black bars, change wallpapers all you want after that, it'll remain shiny black. The problem is most theme generators dont let u assign values higher that 80 in greyscale for basehue...
There are a bunch of themes that have black start menus, black scroll bars though i havent seen yet, ill try that when i get home and see how it looks. If it looks ok ill post the theme but, again to get the top and bottom bars black ull have to change the basehue in the registry as the program i use to make themes wont let me assign a value higher than 80 for greyscale basehue.

I used basehue and than just took a picture with my lens covered and use it as background. Looks good, I'm sure there is a more high tech way to do it but this seemed to work fine.

thx mate they were good but not quite what i wanted,wanted to make everything to be vertually invisible except background but it still looks good with what was there
hi was lookin for a mod that makes top and bottom bar on hd2 seethrough or so you can see wallpaper but i got this gr8 cht(cookies) mod and want it to be compatible ,,,thx in advance,tried lookin myself but to no avail,btw just want a cab that i dont have to mess with the registry or change settings just want the cab program that i can install and its done........if this is possible i would be ever so grateful.THANKYOU
u need to install cookies wall paper patch and then an actual wallpaper cab. You'll also need the actual wallpaper image to use as your start menu background so it matches up. I dont think it actually makes them transparent just applies a section of the wallpaper behind.
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

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
