Question Request: Black Swype Keyboard with Red Trace Line

dont know if this is on the right place if not mods are welcome to move it..

anyways an xda member here on the forums managed to customize the swype keyboard color and traceline.. now i tried installing it but unfortunately i got the screen size error because it was made for a g1

now my question is if anyone here can customize the swype.apk for our evos to a black keyboard with a red trace line...

i know im not the only that would like a customized black and red swype to match our evo's

it would be much appreciated

Another forum pumped out a black/red one with a red line an XDA member posted it here... I'm just saying I am beyond 3 steps away from having any credit for this. Based on the 1.56 and it is high res and works stupendously.

whats up with the warning when u enable the swype keyboard?

it can save your cc numbers and texts in their database?

that's kinda weird. i felt like i was installing a trojan.

That is a standard Android warning that you get when installing any 3rd party keyboard. It is not exclusive to Swype, it is warning you of what could potentially happen if a source is untrusted.
