Thanks Mal. I appreciate that, not to mention all the help you've given me in the past. I think I've finally achieved (to me anyway) the perfect WeatherPanel theme. And a bonus: With this theme, WP-Pilot becomes a moot point. I think it operates better with the thumb...

Hey storyr. Great job. Impressed again. What file in this theme do i need to extract , drop into notepad ,and change to to make the text color black? Its been a little while since i modified one of your themes, but in commuter 240 I believe that it was the darkcamlayout file that i changed the color codes in. I appreciate it.

Thanks jamesus - I hadn't thought of the 70's thing, but now that you mention it...

To answer your question about editing the layouts:

It depends on which layout you're using. Let's say you like Phat(240x240)+145.wpl. Each layout file has one or more companion files. In this case, the companion file is Phat(240x240)+145-Dash.wpx. You would need to edit both of these files.

To change the text to black, change all occurrences of:

NORMAL GLOW-32-32-32 GLOWEXPAND-1,255-255-255

NORMAL,0-0-0

and

BOLD GLOW-32-32-32 GLOWEXPAND-1,255-255-255

BOLD,0-0-0

Actually, I had stopped using WP after the whole authorization update because I was lazy. Also using WP-Pilot on the Mogul was kinda hard, it crashed a couple of times (Moguls fault, trust me).

But this brings a different spin to it, this theme will probably make use WP again!

So, thank you!!!

Just installed it, it is awesome!

One question though...

Any reason why I don't see the red X icon on the screentshots? Using the 240x320-66 layout.

Thanks!

As far as the red X (close) icon - you should always see them when tapping on the "phat" icons. The only time you won't is when tapping on the actual weather icon (a WeatherPanel behavior). The image file is called phat_close.png
