is there a version of this theme that fits better on the today screen with the HTC big home plugin?

it cuts off just a bit at +124

Using ActiveSync, go to \Program Files\MarsWare\WeatherPanel\Themes\PhatPhinger (or PPII depending on the theme you're using) on your phone. Copy the Windows Media Playlist (file icon has a blue arrow) file for the screen size you're running. Paste this onto your pc desktop. Open with Notepad. The first line you'll see is the height of the plugin. Change that value to maybe 120. Save this file and copy it back in the directory from above (replacing the old file).

You're WP plugin should now be smaller on your today screen.

Make sure you didn't accidently change the WMP to a Notepad file before pasting it back into \Program Files\MarsWare\WeatherPanel\Themes\PhatPhinger.

And make sure you select your "changed" theme file in WP settings to have the changes take effect.

Nope. The plugin is a static height.

Try this one (for PhatPhinger II only). It's 112 pixels tall, and looks like this (shown here below the PhatPhinger phoneAlarm skin):

Just unzip and copy the two files into the PhatPhinger folder on your device. I'll add this to the downloads someday...

I can not find instructions on the forum to install a CAB.
Am I just stupid, blind, nontechnical.....all of the above?

I read higher up to install phat phinger I need to have WeatherPanel installed first.
Is that correct. I have the cab download that storyr linked to but am at a loss after that.
Should I be using PP1, PP2 or PP3?

Someone please take pitty on me and point me in the right direction.
I feel so pathetic.
