How the HECK do I do this?

Can someone tell me how I can convert a .JPEG into a .TSK? what program do I need to use? ... thanks.

Or if you can do it for me, that would be great, I have attached it to this post.

Do you just want to apply that as your background or create an entirely new theme?

Try this. (http://www.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=1523)
If it can't support jpg (sorry, didn't use it myself yet) you can always use Paint Brush or any other program to convert it to BMP or other supported format.

Hey Madcap,

I'm actually able to apply it as a background as-is. What happens when you try?

[Madcap180]

ok, I figured it out, it let me..

BTW.. Taurus, would you happen to have the green VISTA.TSK .. ??

Sure thing. Here are the HTC and WM6 Green themes for ya.

Enjoy!

tsk are not a picture format it's a theme it include text color and buttom and top bar colours
and support 1 background picture and 1 startbar picture

there are tsk makers for wm not sure if they are anygood though or if they are free i'm sure others or google knows

when i enter my today settings i get a list of tsk files
plus if i check the checkbox called
"use this picture as the background"
the browse button stops being disabled and i can brows for just pictures as in jpg and the likes

If you got WinCE cab Manger there is Another way to make *.Tsk files.
You simply copy a existing *.Tsk file( one that you like on taskbar,start menu etc)
Open the tsk file (with the Cab Manager), the first 2 images are for the today screen.(portrait and landscape)
Replace those 2 images with images that you before adjusted according you screen format (VGA or QVGA + LAnds. & Port.) and you need rename the new image files sames as the existing one (practically you overwriting the existing images files)

Cheers
