No not yet. I do not think I will. If the latest rom of the 6.5 is correct, that whole interface goes away and regular .tsk files come back into play. They might be a new and improved .tsk released that would allow us to have special effects but I wouldn't hold my breathe.

If we could find a way to make nice WM 6.5 themes easy I would be incredibly happy I used to have my own 6.1 themes thanks to you but 6.5 theming is confusing as hell.

I attached my 6.5 screen. I just continue to use the same old themes I have been doing for the longest. Since I don't see a reason to upgrade to a Touch Pro yet (due to tooo many complaints about it being crap), I'd rather jump to an iphone 3GS and then keep a Mogul as a backup.

That's actually a pre manilla theme. Back when we used to run HTC Home on the phones. In 6.5, since the interface is mostly just menus, the old themes work really good.

Re: (V)eGa's - How to create a basic theme - TUTORIAL

Thanks for the tutorial! It was easy to make my own theme.

I do have a question, though. I recently upgraded from WM5 to WM6 and I can't stand looking at the glossy taskbars. Is there a way to make them solid colors or like WM5?

I tried UITweaker to do this, but it doesn't quite seem to "stick." And when it does work, there is a black line between the bar and the wallpaper that throws off the whole design, which I can't figure out how to deal with.

Any ideas? Thanks!!

There is a way to force the WM5 bars. It's been a loooooong time since I used ThemeGENCE but give me a few days and I'll post a screenshot of what you need to do.
