{BiGnAdAd Taskbar} WinMo 6.5/6.5.X Transparent Taskbar * Thinking of Making COLORS!

[kkryter]

I hate to sound like a huge idiot, but that's probably unavoidable at this point. Perhaps I'm missing the point of what I should be seeing or something, but after installing this excellent looking piece of software I see nice new icons at the top, but I don't see my taskbar being transparent at all. Is there something that I need to do in addition to configure? If so I didn't see it reading through the thread, but I hope I just missed it as I would love to get this working as I think it is supposed to. I'm running the current Sense 2.1 SKI-ROM, CE OS 5.2.23518 Build 23518.5.5.0. Link to it is :

Thanks in advance for any enlightenment!

you need to change wallpaper using HDwalls to see the effect,you need the taskbar and softkeys skinned like the wallpaper to see the transparency of the icons built into this taskbar or go to your start menu>settings>today and select a different theme that will change the colors of the taskbar and soft keys from black which is the default on ski (miss that rom)

i installed this taskbar - soft reset. now the only icon i get in my taskbar is the bluetooth icon, start button, and the drop down for amt of memory in use. i'm running window mobile 6.5 on my TP2. did i do something wrong? I dont even have the "x" in the upper right corner to close out of app's, and i cannot get to "all settings" either. so i cant uninstall this. any suggestions/help would be appreciated. i hope i dont have to hard reset my device.

i had uninstalled any previously installed taskbars (all previous ones failed). i did a hard reset. i am running win mobile 6.5. i'm a little paranoid now to reinstall this taskbar, heheh.

Isnt windows mobile 6.5 a ROM? I'm obviously a noob - I thought that was my ROM. I haven't done anything to it (other than minor tweaks), other than put 6.5 on it, after I got it.

seems he is on verizon, w/ maybe the offical 6.5 stock rom. thats my guess...

hmmmmmm..... i am wondering why this isnt working with stock ROM you have.... windows Mobile 6.5 is the operation system. the ROM is what it is build on.....will see if i can locate the problem... is this working for anyone else with a stock ROM?

Yep, I'm on Verizon & updated to the Windows 6.5 o/s.
