Revampd, I can't help u with your problem but YES that where the data value is. Once you add your wallpaper it fills in with what you wrote. But that is where the initial data value was. If you try again just delete that path...

HD walls is so the pictures we chose for our wallpaper come in clear. If u put them on your card and pick it as a wallpaper they are fuzzy. Once you use HDWalls they look crystal clear like the ones that came with our phones. Plus HDWalls does all this other stuff these guys are doing(curtians, ect)....

Ok... one last time (call me anal), in the string: "\My Documents\My Wallpapers\wallpaper_003.png." am I supposed to delete the WHOLE string, or just the "wallpaper_003.png".

Sorry if I'm driving you crazy with the questions. Thanks for your patience. Tell your boss I said he should give you a raise!

This works perfectly for me, just make sure to follow instruction EXACTLY AS INSTRUCTED or it wont work...

Check on this forum:
BG4ALL + True transparent task & menu-bars in Sense 2.5 ... BOTH ORIENTATIONS

If you don't mind I have another more general question. I can see that when you apply a .jpg as wallpaper, Windows (Touchflo?) resizes it so that it doesn't extend into the curtain areas at the top and bottom of the screen. Is that the reason that we have to use a program like HDWalls? Is there no other way to get full screen wallpapers? I'm very new to this and just copying others instructions for doing things leaves me wanting more. I'd really like to know how this all works.

Anyone know of a Winmo registry tutorial or some such thing?

Yup the whole thing. Once you add your next wallpaper or the same one again. a different string will come back. In that string there was a number (when you started). Once you do what your doing, it adds a long line that you have above (\My Documents\My Wallpapers\wallpaper_003.png.)
But that "Data Value" is supposed to be blank(once you delete it)....good luck....

again, when you add your next wallpaper you will notice that box filled out again. The only reason I know this is because i was doing something with my wallpaper and noticed my Data Value had the similar thing you have

Thank you! That worked. I'm using one of the Hubble .cabs that someone posted as a test wallpaper... hopefully I'll be able to make my own with HDWalls one of these days. I'm including the .jpg here (if I've used My Moblier correctly).The only glitch is that there is a semi-transparent background behind the line which holds the Verizon and HTC logos. This wasn't there in the original .cab so I guess it's something to do with my phone. I'll figure it out.

One last question ()... When I do finally make my own wallpaper, do I have to uninstall the Hubble .cab first or just run mine and it will replace the other?

Thank you so much for all of your help. Maybe one day I'll be able to answer questions too.

Yes, they say to uninstall the old wallpaper first. I think its a safety thing. But i know i read somewhere "to unistall the wallpaper being replaced first". Even if this isn't true it won't hurt to do it.

And thats your top curtain in the way. FWaits does say how to get rid of that in his post...(once you make your own)

P.S. I never answer stuff. I'm always the one asking questions. The stuff your asking I just remember reading somewhere. You ten times ahead of me.
thanks

My friend... I ran across something I've been looking for and thought I'd pass it along. It explained a lot for me. It's a picture of the Imagio screen showing the names and locations of the components. It comes from XDA-developers (link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493011). They are talking about a program called "Max TF3D Theme Maker v4.1" I'm not sure I'll use the program but the screen info was so informative for me that I wanted you to see it. I'm also including a .jpg attached here of just the screen in case you want to save it as a reference.

I hope you find this as useful as I did.

Max TF3D is a useful program, but it does not make your curtains or bars behind task bars and soft keys transparent. HD Walls does this easily by checking the "taskbar and Softkey skinning option.
