Some questions to Avatar AFX

Hello,

Many many thanks for your great and usefull explanation off wisbar advanced and WAD!!!!

Some questions, when loading a theme, I got big icons on the top menu.
How can I resize them?

BTW, I'm using a Mitac Mio A701.

When creating a dock, is it possible to resize these docks (manually) meaning like your main page where name is displayed, clock etc... ? So that specified text fits the dock size...

Looking forward to see your answer...

Kind Rgds

Johan

sounds like you are running a vga theme on a qvga device. download the vga skin instead.

System Tray Shortcuts

Hello AFX, Thanks for this great WAD guide and to Xcillion the original who made this skin. I'm currently working on this on my device. BTW, where can I find those system tray shortcuts you used in this tutorial, such as, "speaker", "wifi", etc... if you don't mind, could you please give me the link where I can get those stuffs? I like the way you did throughout this guide.

Many Thanks!

Great tutorial. I think alot of us n00bs couldn't have done it w/o you. Also big thanks to Xcilion for the skins and downloads. I would just like to include this URL link to another Vista tutorial, it isn't as good but has some more alternatives...maybe you could incorporate into your tutorial...

Can I change just one thing?

hey Man,

I would like to ask a question based on your post here about making your Dell PDA looking like Windows Vista. I am using an HTC Touch runnning Windows Mobile 6.0 professional. I only want to change some things, not create a whole layout. Is this possible? For example I would like to change the start button to a diffirent graphic. Mobile 6.0 already has the black glassy looking bar for the start button, but the graphic needs some help.

Please let me know if all this you are talking about can work on my phone and windows version, as well as what you would reccomend me doing to make this change. I really appreciate you time as I am really new to these phones :-)

Thank in advance.

here are your answers in the order you asked:

1) that icon you are refering to actually just opens the "Pictures & Videos" program, it doesnt start a slideshow. just for show, but it serves its purpose

2) if you are refering to the sidebar, those are just meters i grabbed from another skin, i did not make them.

3) unfortunatly, i dont think there is at this time. that is a limitation of the software, not the theme.

4) see above answer

5) those are just shortcut buttons to wifi settings and bluetooth settings. there is however, a new version of WAD (its at version 2) that comes with scripting. i am currently working on a windows classic WAD theme. it is almost done, just have to finish it up. it will support portrait and landscape modes.

6) you sure can. I think you are looking for an %unread:
