No The software on the phone is very different. These themes do work for Windows Mobile 6.5 because it does not have the TouchFlo2D or 3D. But for TF2/3D, you need to theme a lot more than a few files.

do you know of how to theme manilla files?

No not yet. I do not think I will. If the latest rom of the 6.5 is correct, that whole interface goes away and regular .tsk files come back into play. They might be a new and improved .tsk released that would allow us to have special effects but I wouldn't hold my breathe.

I attached my 6.5 screen. I just continue to use the same old themes I have been doing for the longest. Since I don't see a reason to upgrade to a Touch Pro yet (due to tooo many complaints about it being crap), I'd rather jump to an iphone 3GS and then keep a Mogul as a backup.

That's actually a pre manilla theme. Back when we used to run HTC Home on the phones. In 6.5, since the interface is mostly just menus, the old themes work really good.

Thanks for the tutorial! It was easy to make my own theme.

I do have a question, though. I recently upgraded from WM5 to WM6 and I can't stand looking at the glossy taskbars. Is there a way to make them solid colors or like WM5?

I tried UITweaker to do this, but it doesn't quite seem to "stick." And when it does work, there is a black line between the bar and the wallpaper that throws off the whole design, which I can't figure out how to deal with.

Any ideas? Thanks!!

fourth icon on the main program screen and it will write the theme to a .tsk file.

Now pat yourself on the back because you just made your first theme. Now take the theme as copy it to your phone and see how it looks
