rlToday: Skins (Treo)

[Malatesta]

I modified the "default" skin for the free and amazingly awesome rlToday (<-- click for link).

I took out all the program links and 2 of the 3 calendars to make it fit on the Treo.

Makes a great message counter that is simple and clean.

For the Treos, combine it with the msgled.exe that I posted for LED notifications and/or TreoAlerts and you have yourself a nice message system

Directions:

Just copy skin.xml to your \Program Files\rlToday\Default folder, overwriting the orignal and then refresh.

Feel free to modify and post your tweaks, if any.

do the icons open up the apps? such as sms take you to your text inbox?

Well mine isn't from the origional, But it is modified from meschle's Aqua world clock V - without the flags. I deleted the clock image in the upper left hand corner, and deleted two time zones. Also I changed the position and the size of the font on the date and both remaining time zones.

kind of. the mail one takes you to mail, the SMS takes you to mail too. calls doesn't.

the plugin is not really d-pad navigable, yet. but it's still in development and the head guy seems to have some huge plans for it (it can do weather, messaging, bluetooth...basically everything).

Either way, whenever I have a message I just use the Left softkey for going to where I need to.

Budney, nice mods!

Thanks Mal!

I will have to make and update though, and mod the date format. Or in a few months their will be some serious over lapping issues.

It is amazing what this app can do!

Had some time to play around with rltoday. Found a cool skin & icons made by notilad, and modified it to my liking.

very cool

Update: Budney, you need a tiny fix in the file: skin2.xml needs to be renamed to skin.xml in order to be recognized by rlToday (at least for me).

Thanks Malatesta,
Was wondering why it wouldn't show up.
Also, on the phone icon getting "xxx" instead of 0?
Great skin, by the way.
