.tsk is for 240x240 but I'm providing the .jpg for those who want to play with it/create their own.

originally from here:

Also attached is "Yet Another Vista Skin" for PhoneAlarm by rvdgeer
Updated 12/6: This is the wowthatisrandom/malatesta tweak (but mostly the 1st guy)

- Changed graphs to text
- Changed up colors
- Added 1-handed navigation
- Counters only appear w/new notifications (PA 1.57+ only!)
- Added new "alert" image
- Swapped some icons around

Any custom coloring is done via UITWeaker

Looks perfect! Thanks

BTW, I notice that switch the font to "Bold" in the .skn file makes them easier to read.

Update: This is for PhoneAlarm 1.57+ ONLY!

There is a new feature in PA 1.57 whereby you can have the counter numbers for email, sms, calls, etc only when an alarm is on or rather, you have incoming notifications. Gives a "cleaner look" since there are by default less numbers on the screen.

That is by default: no counter
On alarm (incoming): counter turns on

So I adjust the skin to do this and changed the Nav Highlight color to Red (easier to see, imo). I've also changed the Text to Bold so it's easier to see.

Just drop the .skn file into the PA directory.

Small Issue: I can't get the Profile to select via the 5-way navigation. Any ideas?

Also: What does the "Max" button do?

mal i solved the problem dont ask me why its like this but it works so im running with it..

use the attachment and ur 1 handed navi will work. just switched the location also removed "max" as all it does it change the skin to landscape which doesnt help us much

Yup, works sure enough!

I'm thinking maybe a bug with 1.57? Maybe we should drop bruce a line...

Either way I think we nailed this skin making it way cooler

perhaps we should drop bruce a line... weird that it wouldnt work on the left side... i dont know if its something i/we did or if its just a glitch hit him up
