Weather Icons!

[ajacques]

I am very new to the HTC Pro hacks and tweeks. I want to download the weather icons and screens, but don't know if I should create a folder to put them in and where on my phone. Would you care to give a newbie some step-by-steps instructions?

Thanks

AJ

In general, most of the themes and icons posted here have installation instructions included with the files (usually inside the zip file).

Just to be clear, you need to install WeatherPanel first, then add themes and icons. Also - stick with VGA themes/icons for your Pro.

See the WeatherPanel Download Index for links to everything...

first off, thanks !!!!! This is what a weather app is supposed to be !!!


i am having 1 problem though, all the icons seem to be in Black and white. almost no color. nowhere near what your screen shots look like. is there a setting I am missing?


Thanks again !!!

I've never heard of that one. Post a screenshot. Looks like you have an Omnia - what theme are you running?

Here are a few screen shots. first 3 with a black theme and the last 3 with the stock samsung theme.













Thanks for your time !!!!

Notes:

• Downloads are on each of the 1st three posts
• Each post contains screenshots of the icons on that post
• Each set contains enhanced moons
• They're all PhatPhinger phriendly (huge icons)
• The Yahoo and Touch icons are NOT standard sized, so they may look small in PhatPhinger

See the WeatherPanel download index for more WeatherPanel stuff...

For some reason, mine dont seem to have the color clairity (doesn't seem to "pop") as your examples. perhaps it is the background.

I'll play around with it. !!!!

hi. I just started working with WP and love it so far. I do need some help. I copied over a few themes and icons but i can't get anything to change. Could anyone offer some advice? (working on a 700wx). thanks!

Make sure you've followed these steps:

1.  Install a Theme:

    1.1  Unzip the theme files onto your PC hard drive 
         (be sure to use folder names).

    1.2  Connect your device to the PC.

    1.3  From Windows Exporer, open:
         My Computer, Mobile Device, My Windows Mobile-Based Device,
         \Program Files\MarsWare\WeatherPanel\Themes

    1.4  Copy the theme folder and it's contents into the Themes folder 
         on your device. Your folders should then look something like 
         this (using PhatPhinger III as an example):

         - Program Files
           - MarsWare
             - WeatherPanel
               - data
               + Icons
               - Themes
                 - PhatPhinger III QVGA

2.  Install an Icon set:

    2.1  Unzip the icon files onto your PC hard drive 
         (be sure to use folder names).

    2.2  Connect your device to the PC.

    2.3  From Windows Exporer, open:
         My Computer, Mobile Device, My Windows Mobile-Based Device,
         \Program Files\MarsWare\WeatherPanel\Icons

    2.4  Copy the Icons folder (and it's contents) 
         from your PC into the Icons folder on your device. 
         Your folders should then look like this (showing
         Umicons in this example):

         - Program Files
           - MarsWare
             - WeatherPanel
               - data
               - Icons
                 + Umicons QVGA Icons
                 + Default
               + Themes

3.  Go to the WeatherPanel settings (Display tab) and configure 
    the theme, layout and icons.
