You have to unpin the Spb Mobile Shell plugin. If you have SkTools there is a today plugin manager option. If not, its a simple registry edit. Search around for unpinning. You'll find out about unpinning in most threads for PocketPlus, MobileShell, or even the HTC Home.

If you have trouble finding it here, check spbclub.com forums.

thank you very much for the direction. I am using one of your themes and it is by far the best looking today screen I have had on my phone..I am still trying to tweak things a little bit but I appreciate all the work you have done and for making it public...Thanks again

You know I really like the HTC home plugin, but it is too large. I thought about doing it in RLtoday, I know there are a few out there. Can there be a favorites contacts like HTC home in rlToday and mortscript or something? WinMobileLawer I was going to use some of your skins to hack up and learn from.

Hack away! Be sure to post some screenshots!

And yes I believe that would be possible... over at the rlToday forums there are a few people working on tabs within rlToday.

Personally, I use rlToday just as my home indicator area, clock, and sometimes my most used shortcuts. For favorite contacts, I have both MobileShell and PocketPlus installed and so I use all 3 of the Dial Tabs from mobile shell in one PocketPlus tab and that gives me 15 photo dials right on my Today screen!

I haven't designed a new rlToday skin in a while because I am pretty content with my setup now, but someone inspire me!

Hey, could someone be able to do antying for this old theme i had for my Motorla Q? Make it flashy, I want it to stand out lol if possible : ). Some of the cool vista deisgns wouldn't hurt : ). Thanks a lot. And if you could, could You replace the punjabimunda in the attachment(the word on top of the miami heat logo) to Vikas? thank you very much!

Here's a screen shoot of what I want. I have a tread here. http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1316

This is no longer a request. I am slowly making progress developing a theme myself. tlToday is a little tricky, but man it is slick! It is going to be the perfect replacement for HTC home once I am done. Check the last screenshot for progress.

Here goes: I need a huge 12 hour clock showing am/pm to the bottom right of clock and the little alarm bell above am/pm that is lit up when alarm is set. The first thumb below gives an idea of the clock font I am thinking. Something close to my S2U2. I also want the skin to have the transparent rounded box around it.
Just below the clock would be the Day, Date, and Year like "Thursday April 24, 2008" in a plain font like the one in the dialer thumb below where it says "Last Call:"
Below the day/date I would like Torx transparent Icons for phone, mail, and SMS which can be found here in pack 4. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=13018
When phone is pressed it should goto phone. Mail should goto Outlook Email. SMS should goto Cody's Palm Threaded SMS. There is not a folder in my program files for this app, but it is in the programs list from the start menu. The path is " \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\SMS.lnk " Next to each Icon please include a small number that represents missed calls, etc.
Finally, to the right of all this should be a Calendar for the current month that will goto ThumbCal when pressed. The path is \Program Files\ThumbApps\ThumbCal\ThumbCal.exe

I really want everything to be sharp and consistent with my other themes. I am including thumbnails below to give you an idea.

So, I am assuming you can't help to make this skin for me. everything I have is free other than Ultimate Launch. To get to rltoday settings just right-click (or press and hold) and a window pops up with "options"
