No, they are very different. Mobile Shell has a nice layout that works well for me, but is not as customizable as WAD, however I have found that Mobile Shell is pretty easy to customize once you get the hang of it. That may be true for WAD as well, I have not looked into it very much. I believe WAD has a lot more options for customizing and it seems can get a little complex.

My suggestion would be to check out the themes/skins and pick the one you like best for each product then use the free trial period to see which one you prefer. As far as any specific theme/skin, you have to use it on whichever program it was made for. The themes/skin are not interchangable.

There is also a program called ThrottleLauncher that has themes/skins for it and I believe it is a free program.

The Omnia and the iPhone Mobile Shell skins you have quoted the links to will not work on the Diamond, which has a VGA screen. The Kingdom Hearts skin is for VGA so would work on the Diamond. There may be other Omnia or iPhone skins that are made for VGA, but I have not seen any yet. I have one I am working on called Windows Field Revisited, which is an update to my first attempt at skinning Mobile Shell. I also have another skin called Ultimate WM7 that I am still trying to make VGA compatable. See links below.

Another option is to learn how to do some skinning yourself. If you learn how to do that, you can convert any skin you want to VGA. You can find a lot of Mobile Shell skinning information at xda-developers.com.

It has been quite a while since I tried WAD. Maybe someone more familiar with it can chime in here.

I'm having a problem trying to install this beautiful theme. I read the instructions on how to install it, except for one little problem. My HTC-6800 (Sprint), doesn't have a spb mobile shell default folder. What do i need to do to find the folder on my device? What do i do in order for me to install this them into my phone.....any suggestions?

You have to install SPB Mobile Shell software first, then you will have the folder and can install the skin files.
