Make sense?

Edit: Don't change the registry, that points to where a bunch of images used by S2UL are kept. Including the wallpaper.

Makes perfect sense. I didn't realize that there were also things in \Windows\gfx.

what i do is i keep all the files that are custom to me....like images and links in my storage card and after a flash or hard reset i just copy/paste them over to My Device path example for S2U2 i would keep my custom wallpaper.jpg in a folder

\Storage Card\BackUp\Program Files\S2U2\gfx\wallpaper.jpg so when it comes time to copy everything all i do is highlight everything in BackUp then copy then paste to My Device ...and your somewhat back to what you had before the Hard reset or flash

After further consideration, I think I'm going to do just this. Of course, this means that I need to make a new ROM without S2U2. Well, I haven't flashed my ROM in over 16 hours, so I guess its about time...

Thanks for all the help, both of you.

LOL - that's how I feel. Constant reflashing and re-customizing.
Ahhh, the downside of wanting every little update and tweak to be perfect.

Better than an SD card, is to use your ExtROM for S2U2's graphics files. If you put them on the ExtROM, and make an OEM to redirect S2U2s gfx location registry value to there, you'll be all set to go without wasted space or a copy. (you can't do the same thing with your SD card because SD cards aren't always mounted when the system exits standby mode - ExtROM is).

Pardon my confusion. Are you saying that I can put S2U2 in my ROM, but redirect where it looks for the jpegs to a folder in my Ext Rom?

Holy Crap Helmi/Batman/Chill/et al!
I finally got a flash that worked... this is freaking amazing.
I tried installing some new things based on some of the text-note "suggestions" and I might actually change my base configuration. I can't believe how fast this thing reboots. And easily overclocked. And the GUI... topbar looks as good as WisBar! WkTask & the Dutty explorer can easily replace Resco and maybe iLauncher.
I'm just stunned.

(Note that there is a new version of WkTask out; when I went to the website and downloaded the new cab, I couldn't install the new version. Didn't have the right "permissions". I'm going to guess that this is because the original is in ROM. So, I'll reflash without WkTask and then reinstall the new version.)
