Best Today setup
 
There are so many these days

For practical purposes, I found that the most effective setup was:
- Nuerom 506* (some compat issues but not bad)
- Quickmenu - programs as first item - i.e. launcher with fast small, cached icons
- Nuelinks - helps when I am updating my rom - keeps link "launcher" up to date
- basic status on today screen (mail, weather (numbers no pictures)
- big cache
- No skins, black everything. default comm screen etc.
- some hardware button bindings
- cleanups with sktools and pocket mechanic
- keyboard varies. I like taptext, but zoomboard 2.02 is nice and a little smaller/faster. When I am using my stylus I like the built in one because it is the fastest.
I use the hard keyboard when I am willing to go two handed.
Everything other than maps installed on system memory

Fast and effective, Not pretty, but it does everthing that I want and it does it quickly. No response lag, no crashes.
Everything beyond the most used basics (phone, email, camera, maps, notes) are apps launched via with with windows hardkey and quickmenu combined with nuelinks to organize the menus
I like fast
I with that there were more ways to disable graphics and skins. The display is slow and I like white on black.

Not releasing it yet... The programs I used were:

WAD
WA2
pA
Spb MS
Spb P+
SBSH IL
SBSH PBreeze
SBSH PW
SBSH MyList
Quicknotes Today
psShutXP

Many of the icons were taken from other WAD themes. Alot of credit goes to those skin creators...
And my amazing photoshop skills!

When WAD2 comes out and I get my Touch Pro, I will release it!

Alright... I am counting the days till I get my hands on the HTC Diamond. This SPB Mobile Shell skin is enough to keep most of us quiet until it is released in the US.

Install SPB Mobile Shell (purchase... google whatever)
Copy the SPB Mobile zipped folder contents into /programs/SPB Mobile Shell and write over the existing files.

Copy the contents of the Fonts folder into windows/fonts

I used Greatbals original files with the modified weather icons (3d look)
Links to the files are on XDA... click the following link.

Wait until I get my Touch Pro.
Then, if WAD2 is out, I will release it for everyone to enjoy!

The theme is ALL OVER the SD card. I want to make it simple so everyone can use it
