I will try to explain how we can make backgrounds for all tabs for the new manila V3.
First from all we choice a wallpaper which can give good looking at portrait and landscape mode.
Wallpaper must be dark color (Black, dark Grey, Blue dark e.t.c) because the light fonts let a line to look at the background.
We edit the wallpaper with photoshop.
PORTRAIT MODE
Our wallpaper for Portrait must be in PNG and to have dimensions:
480 width X 768 length
We cut the wallpaper in two pieces because at this manila we have 2 files for it.
The upper part must be 480X512
and the down part 480X256
so as 512+256=768 which is the length of our wallpaper.
The next step is to put them pictures in new transparent PNG files.
The Upper part we put in a transparent 512X512 png file, like at the pic follow, and we give file name, the name of the manila file: 70083a29_manila.png
Yellow line is to look how you placement the picture in the new transparent file.
The down part picture we put in a new png file 512X256 like at the follow picture, and we give name 77feee1d_manila.png
LANDSCAPE MODE
Wallpaper for landscape must have dimensions 800 width X403 length
We cut it also in two pieces.
Left part must be 512X403 and right part 288X403
so as 512+288=800
We put the left part in a new transparent png file with name 29cff4fe_manila.png 512X512 with name like at the follow picture:
The right part we put also in a transparent png file 512x512 with name
058acf31_manila.png like at the follow picture
We put the 4 pictures in a folder and we import this folder at the M9Editor
You can find M9editor Here:

We convert the 4 picture files from png to qtc with editor. Press the button P>Q
Automatically, editor will make 4 manila files.
After that if you know make those files a CAB or copy paste at the windows folder with overwrite and soft reset.
Before you paste the new files at the windows, keep a copy from the original files so as to come back if you want.
AND DON'T FORGET: TAKE A BACKUP FROM YOUR DEVICE BEFORE.
I hope my post will help you to manage your wallpapers
