You need to add some text to the post, at least 10 characters iirc. A short description with the names of any widgets, wallpapers etc used is always appreciated by others anyway.

Btw, please check imbedded image links before submitting the post - your earlier post briefly broke the thread as the URL was invalid. :)

I was able to extract the battery from WebOS. Thank you again! It was still a pain bc they were all on one big png file so I had to cut them out but it was worth it. I LOVE this battery lol. As u can see Ive been playing in my framework lately. Im in a rainbow mood lol

You are a real pro...your themes are often very well done.....Mykela, tell me how do you put the colors under status bar ?
 
I've tried to make a picture with the same resolution as my HTC Incredible S screen resolution. But everytime i want to use such a picture as my desktop-picture, i get this green square and i have to crop my picture.

Why is that, what am i doing wrong - and how to i use the entire picture for my desktop ???

Have you touched the edge of the green square and dragged it out to full size . did that make sense ? Too early in the am .

I know what you mean... i cant do that. It seems to be resized with fixed proportions

Just a guess, but you're probably making the wallpaper 480x800, the single screen dimensions of your phone. The wallpaper should be 960x800 to allow for scrolling across multiple screens. If you're already trying that size and it's not working, maybe try a wallpaper app - I've seen both "Wallpaper set and save" and "Wallpaper wizrdrii" recommended often.

Hope this helps, and good luck.

Edit - Here's a 960x800 template I made that may help. The red area is what will be visible on your center screen. If you're going to use it, make sure to save it at full size.

Great screens! They made me lol!
 
Aww thank you sweetie! I edited the image in Photoshop. (I know most use gimp but Ive never used it lol) I already had a transparent titlebar I made already so then I just made a color bar picture and sliced it and added it to the image. Took a little bit of playing around though bc at first the colorbar was too thick. So I just kept playing with it. I can give u the png for the statusbar if u want sweetie. I dont mind sharing it.

Mykela this would be greatly appreciated ...I love you :D
 
Dont know why. Keep playing with Photoshop and Widgetlocker today. Probably not gonna use either theme bc they dont match my homescreen but thought I'd show them anyway lol.

Bloody hell guys. Your setups make me feel the phone equivalent of impotent.

This one especially is gorgeous. How did you do it?

Thank you, I appreciate the compliment. First, a couple things I used from the market: SmsUnreadCount for notification bubble, CustomClockWidgetPro (there is a free version but, for the $.99 it's really a nice customizable clock and well worth it imho) for the main clock, and GlassWidgets for the calendar. Below in the .zip file I've included the original wall, my modded version of the wall (it's made for my screen size so you might have to re-size it), black shelf dock (not my work so I don't take credit for it, found on the xda forums), and finally, the custom icons I made. I also included the dock with my icons already attached with the reflection in case you want that.

@mykela25:
Do you remember by any chance what grid you were using in this screen? I can't seem to keep the weather icon small when I try to drag it onto the clock. :(


Edit:
I think I got it now :D
Did some changes to the clock, since I wasn't too happy with it.
