Yes, thanks to BUMP THAT over at the Lakeridge forums we have another Vista them to choose from. It is a very clean version with the best gradient on the bars yet IMHO. Their is a Black & a Blue (w/ black icons) version.

**The tsk used is the "Classic Black" w/ a Vista wallpaper**

How did you get your bottom menu bar to look that way. I've been messing with this theme for an hour now and can't figure out. It stays with my standard WM5 them colors.

Also, there's no .png or .tga for the battery meter... only battery low. any idea where I could get that?

Do you actually have Wisbar Advanced 2 running? This is a theme for WA2 and it should automatically change everything when selected.

How about Wisebar Advance Desktop? I can't find a good theme that works with WAD.

I have been looking for a theme/skin like you are talking about here...would this work with WAD, or do you know where I could look> (I haven't had much luck yet in finding one I like and is compatible with Treo)

Thanks for any input!!!!

I've never used WAD, keep in mind the whole point behind WAD is that YOU create a Today screen, or mny virtual Today screens to your liking. WAD is a plugin for WA2, so first you need a WA2 theme that you like... then you need to create or basically copy a WAD theme.

With that said, people do share their WAD themes at the official WA2/WAD forums HERE

I assume it just needs to be QVGA, although I could be wrong since users may be counting with the 240x320 space... so try that out, or look for square themes.

You can always edit a 240x320 theme I gues... I don't really know.

I believe that Chris has now made WAD a stand alone app, so you don't need to have WA2 in order to use WAD.

Uhmm cool... it never really even made sense to me that it was a plugin.

Couldn't agree with you more on that one!

It does take a bit getting the hang of putting the icons together though. I am trying to make a smooth-looking screen. I was hoping you could import screens already put together. I'll keep trying though!!
