Themes used to be easy with the MS theme generator and spb add in for extended themes.

My .tsk files which worked fine up to WM2003SE now don't work in WM5.

I can't even use the background image because for some reason the image is converted from black to grey as if its applying a 50% transparency to it

Can anyone tell me how to theme WM5??

I have just learn't that for some weird reason .tsk files work differently in my documents than they do in \windows\

I know have a partially themed WM5 (top and bottom bar unthemed again because of transparency problem)

anyone find a way to use 2003 themes in wm5 yet?

I do use the skins but with several caveats

WM5 doesn't seem to like th .tsk files anywhere other than "My documents" folder.

Sometimes I have to apply the skin and then soft reset

I use Wisbar Advance 2 to get top bar and BT/WiFi bottom bar skinned but can't skin anything other than the text on the soft button bars
