Need help with Weather clock

[jollyschwa]

No problem, I've actually been wondering which files were for the weather clock, just hadn't had a chance to look into yet.

Holy crap man! I came back for dinner to this awesome cab, you know the funny thing is I installed the first cab you posted because I couldnt wait anymore, (white and white) and I like it even more LOL.
Thanks a million for the cabs and the tips!

Glad I could help

There are actually 7 files for the clock, 4 of them for the background (2 top and 2 bottom), 1 file for the numbers, and 1 file each for AM/PM designation. I've cab'd up all of them from the MightyROM for anyone that would still want it, however, I haven't tested it out, but it should work. If it doesn't work and people would still want it, I can recreate it, but it will have to wait until tomorrow as I don't have anyway to really troubleshoot any issues ATM. I also have a clock that people can download that is a black background with white numbers over here.

For anyone that needs to know, here are the files:

14e89810_manila
251edfbd_manila
3504625a_manila
456da6c4_manila
5801c3c9_manila
62e5f1b5_manila
7be8b171_manila

I didn't realize am and pm were separate from the background tabs, thanks for pointing that out. I wonder why they did it that way.

So that the AM/PM could be seperate from the background. If you don't want a background, you can still have the AM/PM floating with nothing behind it. It also can be changed that way to any color, easier.

That's interesting, I like it better this way, but you could still do all that before.

I tried using CFC GUI, how do you change the colors of the clock files once you open up the Manila files in CFC GUI?
EDIT: never mind I figured it out, thanks again jollyschwa
I never noticed that AM/PM wasn't changed, but not a big deal for me because I use 24hour time anyway.

Well, you must first export the manila file from CFC GUI an a .PNG file(image file). Then open the image with an image editor, such as Photo Shop Pro, Gimp, etc,... Then in the image editor, you can adjust the color, morph the image, etc,... Then save the image with the same manila name, still as a .PNG. Then with a program, such as Mode9 Editor, you can reconvert the images back to .manila files. Then with a program, such as QuickCab, you can use the modified manila files to create your .cab file.

Not as simple as just editing the image in CFC GUI. Wish it was. Although this method works well and gets easier with practice.

There is another way of changing the files without having to create a .cab for it, although it's then not installable. You would have to replace the modified manila files with the original to revert back.

Hope this helps and if you would like further info, let me know, or PM me if you want. Just trying to help, not trying to butt in.

Thanks, I'm new to editing manila, any help is appreciated. How do you create a cab in a way that makes it uninstallable?
