Yep thats what to do essentially :P You can include a portrait wallpaper but I don't as I like to set my background style (back ground 4 all) through cookie.

So in summary for anyone else wanting transparent bars on the new cookie 1.8 (and this is just a temporary fix until someone comes along with an easier method) here you are:

1. Download onto your PC: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=503511
2. LOAD... the image
3. Hit auto crop, apply, then close. Choose No for "Set output directory to XXXXXXX"
4. Hit create cab. Make sure only 1 checked box "Delete Wallpaper Manila files after CAB creation". Highlight both softkeybar.png & taskbar.png then hit add files.
5. Choose a destination for the cab so you can find it and hit Create CAB.
6. Softreset after installing the cab.
Yay we're done now you have created a cab to make your current wallpaper have transparent soft&taskbars. Jeez that took a lot of work due to the new 1.8cookie mods 8-[

Thanks for the walk through on this!

No prob ... you probably needed to get your land-legs back!! LOLOLOL!!

Thanks for the walk-through! I think it's pretty easy to figure out, but I have to admit that you are doing it a little differently. I noticed the top & bottom are slightly off, and maybe it's b/c of the way I'm doing this? I'll try your way & see what happens...

Thanks again!! :headbang::headbang:

Here's my resulting WP ...

Do we need to install the HQ Wallpaper patches when using HDWalls for Plutonium?

Edit: I am creating my HDWalls cab, but I am not finding where to add the taskbar and softmenu key .pngs...... I found it before - I am puzzled........... are you guys using the config for the manila 2.5? Shoot......

Edit #2: OMG, I tried for the 3rd time and NOW I see perfectly where to add the taskbar and such files..... I have no idea what I did wrong....... jeez.

I don't think the patches are necessary when making a WP cab. It worked without it, but a patch may fix the alignment issue, I'm not sure. I tried HQ Wallpaper Patch 1.30, and that did not correct the alignment. There is a setting to adjust the bottom portrait offset under "Config" (Advanced Profile Editor) that is at -2, I might change that to 0 to see if it fixes the alignment.

If you select "include portrait wallpaper," the taskbar & softmenu files should appear under "files."

Ok, this is so irritating - I used to use HDWalls all the time and something is awry here.... I installed the cab I created, soft reset - nada.........installed hdwalls for the phone like I used to do - selected the wallpaper and soft reset - nada......sigggghhhhh...........don'tcha' love it when you have something down and something changes and you have no idea wtf it is?? :cussing: hmmmm......... :cussing:

Hey Vin - do you have a cab for that clock you have on your home screen? I prefer the digital clocks over analog & I like the black digits over the transparent background! :toothy7:

Off topic here - but if anybody is interested, here is a cab for SPB TV that's suppose to be free. Haven't tried it yet myself but thought I'd share.

I found it here....
