Question Is this layout possible??

The 1st pic is my current screen and as you can see the date gets cut off.
The 2nd pic I Photoshopped of how I would like the layout to be.
- NO carrier (I quite remember who I send my money to monthly)
- Centered date
- Italicized date
- Larger font for the date
- Ability to use the entire width of the screen to fit the date.
In the PS pic I change the month to "November" since putting in "Wednesday + November" would give the longest string.
Basically are there any editable manila files that would allow this change??
BTW, please don't recommend "use a shorter date format" b/c if I was OK w/ using a shorter date, I wouldn't be posting...

Post your 1c684cd8_manila file from the /Windows directory and I'll see what I can do.

Try one of these to edit the manila files.

While my date format is not the same...try this file out and post a screenshot for me to check my work. Must disable tf3d, copy file to windows dir, and enable tf3d...im not sure about the italic thing...but if you can find me a TTF font file for the font you wish to use i can create something I think.

Re: Is this layout possible??

That is actually 98% perfect... W/ the font in the pic below months such as 'November' or 'December' will make it too long. Basically can you adjust the font size or teach me how to adjust it so that on a 'Wednesday' in 'November' the screen will be filled like it is in the pic. I know that for example on a 'Friday' in 'May' the date will be shorter obviously but you know what I mean... right?

Ok made font size slightly smaller to accomodate the test date of 'Wednesday 25 September 2009' fitting nicely. Also I centered the text completely (left to right and top to bottom.) Let me know if you need anything else...I can add COLOR if need be...
