Hi,
anyone know how to make own background color (not only light, dark) or even more, to set image as a background?

As far as I know, there is no way to set any other colours for "light" or "dark". And definitely not any way to set a custom background unfortunately. The only background you can set is the lockscreen one.

Just give it a few more months..WP7 is a very new OS and we need to wait for more..Give some more time to the devs and they will surprise us with tweaks/mods/themes e.t.c! :rolleyes:

you can modify the light or dark to be with the color you like using the registry Editor

but you need an unlocked phone by ChevronWP7

and A registry editor

http://forum.touchxperience.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=593

to modify the dark theme go to those Keys and change the value to your taste of HEX color

HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\Basethemecolor
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\TextHighContrast
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\TextBackGround
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\pageBackGroundColor
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\SysTrayBackGroundColor

You might also need to change the font Color
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\TextNeutralColor
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\ListPickerBackgroundPressed
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\1\ContrastColor


to modify the light theme:


HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\Basethemecolor
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\TextHighContrast
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\TextBackGround
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\pageBackGroundColor
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\SysTrayBackGroundColor

You might also need to change the font Color
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\TextNeutralColor
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\ListPickerBackgroundPressed
HKLM\ControlPanel\themes\0\ContrastColor

to get the colors in Hex you can find some good color combination here
