Updated background

I started using the Windows Vista PE theme for WA2 (Aero Dark), so I decided to modify one of the Chameleon-240 backgounds to match the theme exactly. So here it is:



The colors match the Aero Dark theme, plus I gave the button bar more of a "glassy" look:



It replaces the gray background #12 (bk_12.png) - but you can rename it and replace any background you wish, such as pink - not that there's anything wrong with pink

Just drop the file into your Chameleon-240 theme folder on your device.

Enjoy!

i like the cham look but was wondering if anyone who already knows how to build a theme can make something more like this. i only need 3 days worth of forecast and this idea one is apx 45 vs 60 pix high (i photoshoped capture of orginal so that both would be same fonts and stuff just a tad different layout)

any help on this would be greatly appreciated since my today screen is already overcrowded - thanks alot

storyr,

I like the look of your re-designed Aero colors. I use the WB Aero theme too. However, when I use it it seems to change most of the text in the WP theme to black. The black text is virtually unreadable against the grayish background. How do I make it so the text is all white?

Thanks lg. Which background did you replace? 12 or a different one? Some of the background layouts use black fonts, others use white. The last one (13) uses the Today text color.

Thanks the only thing I can think of...

Ah that must be it.

I replaced (6) - pink per your suggestion. LOL

I guess I'll have to find another color I don't plan on using that uses white text.
