iceblue's Today, Themes, Skins, Dialers, Suite Packs (MNBSFW)

3-9-08
I am putting this thread together over this week. Please bear with me and hold back replies until I sign the last post with my signature. The signing will let you know that I am done for now with the thread and ready to take posts and PM's regarding this thread.

What I am doing is building a theme based system wide coverage thread database. I will hold everything I do in regards to themes in here. This will not including cooked ROMs or any other applications not related to today based themes.

All items will be pulled and hosted on my 4shared server and eventually the FTP. Please note all programs that I put out open source will be uploaded the same way but the source code will only be available from my 4shared account and only from v1.0alpha and latter.

Thank you for your patience and support
Chris Scott

Re: iceblue's Today, Themes, Skins, Dialers, Suite Packs (MNBSFW)

Themes


Notes
Welcome to my theme pack section, you will find only individual themes for your PPC home back grounds and bar/text colors here. You will find some of the same themes packed into other sections of this thread and suites but you do not need them as well. This section is only the stand alone theme for you to use. For instance incase you noticed you liked a theme used in a suite but did not want the entire suite you can come to this section and download just the theme. If you have any further questions regarding one or more of my themes please read the FAQ below and if you still have not found your answer you may PM me.

Instructions
Download the theme pack to your computer from the link provided below named download. UnZip or UnRar the archive to your computer then copy the file xxx.tsk to your PPC device via active sync into any desired folder on the PPC. I keep a folder on my device in mydocuments named themes. Now on your PPC open file explorer found in Start > Programs and navigate to the file you saved xxx.tsk and tap on the file. Today application should then open click on the theme you just loaded xxx.tsk and tap ok. Your theme is now loaded.

Help & FAQ
Q: What is xxx.tsk? Or I do not see xxx.tsk when I download a theme.
A: xxx.tsk is the native file format for the ppc themes, xxx is simply a null place holder value for any desired name where you would replace xxx with the name of the theme you just downloaded. For example if you just downloaded theme anime you would simply change the value xxx.tsk to anime.tsk or any other relevant file name in your head.

Q: I can't open the file/theme I just downloaded
A: You will need to download a compatible RAR archiving program such as WinrRar or WinAce

Q: Will your themes work on my PPC?
A: The themes will work on any WM device from WM2002+ but may look slightly different then the pictures shown based on WM6.x

Q: Where did you get your themes from? I have seen them on another web page.
A: All my themes are iceblue originals, if you see them else where you can rest assure they were ripped off from me.

Q: Do I need to pay or donate for your themes?
A: No you do not I provide them just out of my love for computers and PPC's.

Q: What if I still want to donate to you can I?
A: Despite many of your requests I am still declining this option. I will put up a donate option after I have developed/released some more intense stuff and or actual programs. When and only when this point has been reached that I feel I have created or contributed enough to the community to justify a donation will I release the link. So until then just hold onto your pennies for me.

Blue Matrix
"This is the geek inside of me coming out with the iceblue favoritism. I feel the Matrix is one of the single most technologically mind challenging hacker mindset to embrace my generations time in sci-fi action without limits and the minds ability to conflict the wire ever since Star Wars of the 70’s and hackers of the 90’s which is a more logically bound movie. To honor this movies awesomeness here is the start to kick off my matrix themes."


Download

Anime
"I am a fan of anime in an art form and story line. I do have a taste and style that I stick to mostly and will be notable in the themes I take great care into like this one. I draw to either story line of the character or in this case the attitude and look portrayal of the art. This theme was to base both a character embraceable side and landscape show the same sex character displaying a samurai side staying true to the form from its origin while maintaining color fluency."

Re: iceblue's Today, Themes, Skins, Dialers, Suite Packs (MNBSFW)

Dialers

"Notes"

"Instructions"

Q: What is graphics kit?
A: The dialer themes shown are available in a graphics only installer, known as graphics kit. The purpose is to allow you to simply install skins at any time without replacing your dialer or any system files associated with the dialer. The graphics kit package will not work on most device by them self and also require my base kit package.

Q:
What is Base kit?
A: Base kit is the infrastructure of the dial pad; the kit includes all the DLL, and registry type files associated with supporting the pad itself. The base kit will not work on its own and will require one of my graphics kit packs to be installed as well.

Q:
What is package kit?
A: Package kit is my base kit and graphics kit packed together. The package kit will allow you to install the chosen theme on your phone without having to do anything else and have the new dialer working. The package kit for all themes will replace the phones dll and registry files every time it is installed. The package kit is not needed if you already have the base kit or the latest HTC dial pad pack.

Q: How do I know if I already have the latest HTC dial pad or proper Base kit?
A: You already have a compatible dial pad if you are using an HTC Touch or windows mobile 6.1 ported ROM. You will not need the base kit or package kit in this case. Everyone else will need to install the base kit or package kit, make sure you uninstall any previous 3rd party dialers you may have installed on your PPC.

Q: What WM version will the dial pads work on?
A: The pads should work on any WM edition from 2003 but only tested on WM 5.0 to WM6.X

Q:
Will I have redial, speed dial, and 911?
A: Yes

Q:
I downloaded or want to download more then one of your themes what should I do?
A: If you have already installed the base kit or currently have a compatible dialer you need to download only the graphics kit of your choice. When you want to install another one of my skins you will need to uninstall the previous skin but do not uninstall the base kit. If you installed a package kit theme do not uninstall it unless you plan on replacing it with a base kit. Just install a graphics kit pack and leave the package kit alone, the original graphics files will just be over wrote.

Q: I changed my theme but the old one still shows up?
A: Soft reset your phone

Q: If I remove your dialer what happens to my phone?
A: Your phone will revert back to the OEM dial pad.

Anime
This pad was the spawn of my anime today theme. I tried to keep the concept the same with high art aggressive appeal and soft seductive sexual appeal.

Download -Base kit
Download -Graphics kit
Download -Packaged kit

Snow
This pad was the spawn of my snow today theme. With this concept I went for a day and night portrait sowing off both anime appeal and strength under different lighting.

Download -Base kit
Download -Graphics only
Download -Packaged Kit

First to cover all possible angles lets make sure that xxx.tsk is put onto your device and not a storage card. If you clicked on the .tsk file and the theme does not show up under the today screen then try a soft reset and then check today plug in. If the file is stil not listed try reloading it again by clicking on it. If the file still fails to load you can try re downloading the theme or you posibly have something wrong with your device or software interfering.
