Here is the screenshot of the theme

http://project.ppc-theme.com/the_black_and_the_light/screenshots%20(ppc-theme.com).jpg (http://project.ppc-theme.com)

Installation and Usage:

- Download the files given below.

- Extract the file which you have downloaded from project.ppc-theme.com to your PC Desktop.

- Connect your PPC with PC via ActiveSync.

- Transfer the choosen .tsk theme to your Windows folder on your PPC.

- Transfer the .cab files to your PPC.

- Install the .cab file to device memory. Remember to do it at your own risk.

- After doing the installation, soft reset your PPC for maximize use.

- Change your today theme to one of the .tsk themes you have downloaded.

- Run the Wisbar Advance Desktop application, click and hold on an open area and choose theme manager (note that "Author Mode" must be active).

- Enter Desktop Theme, at the potrait tab choose "the black and the light" and at the landscape tab choose "the black and the light landscape". After that click ok.

- Now your today screen will look similar to the pictures above and you're done.

- Remember to make it in "full screen" mode.

- Some shortcuts that exist will most likely induce a "cannot find file" error when you click them.

This is normal, just click and hold on the icon and edit them to correct path through properties.

- This theme run fast because it doesn't need Wisbar Advance in using it.

- Most words in the theme have shortcuts when click on it.

- Set your own today plugin at the standard desktop, by clicking and holding on an open area and choose "new" and then choose "Today Plugin."

- You can put your photo at the box on the standard desktop, with the size of 300x200.

Now, we have made it is easy to set your own pics.

After creating picture with 300x200 size in .png extension, name it with "my photo.png". Put it in the following directory

Main memory: \Program Files\Lakeridge\Wisbar Advance Desktop\themes\the black and the light by ppc-theme.com\photos\

Just overwrite it and you are done, for instance look at the screenshots above.

- Important note for Advance Desktop, before you change the desktop wallpaper,

you have to either exit the previous section by clicking the section button again or simply go to misc section first (the default desktop.)

- Enjoy using The Black and The Light Theme.

I dont remember it off the top of my head head but you can try typing this in the "Path to executable" line (write them exactly as below):

"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS"

or

"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service SMS



Other variables for the -service are:
MMS
ActiveSync
Gmail <---this could be the name that you gave your email mail box.

I use PockectCM for all of SMS so I have one of my links opening PocketCM.
Hope these help. You can also search the Wisbar Forums for more commands.

After I download either of the 2 zip files for QVGA i get an error saying the file is invalid or corrupted...

It seemed to have worked for everyone else but all other zips i download are fine...can someone try the zips again and see if it works for them..thanks.

[Nicole2320]

Enter Desktop Theme, at the potrait tab choose "the black and the light" and at the landscape tab choose "the black and the light landscape". After that click ok.

When I go to do this step, there is nothing listed. Just says Installed Desktop theme. I installed the cab. Did I miss a step?

EDIT:Had to update my Wisbar Advance to 3.1.0.8, now I see the files.

[ThisisRage]

hmm for some reason when i put the files in the right folder
it will not show up in the Theme Manager...
It will only show the default themes thats installed in them..

Im using a WM6 qvga htc touch
is it cause its not working for me
or I just did something wrong?
