ok, instead of editing dll files, I decided to take the easier and more efficient way of skinning the board. I decided to just make skins for the wonderful PCM Keyboard. I just tried my hand at it and with minor editing, I created an all black version of the touch skin with a slightly different background on the keypress popup. Here is a pic of it.

Edit - I have attached the all black skin to this post for those who want to try it. You have to have PCM Keyboard already installed in order for this to work. For PCM Keyboard, either look around here or check the guys out at:

If you need help installing the program, please look on their website or search for post around here.
