Hey Cmonex,

you mean wisbar makes for a buggy login?

Advice, can I use it with V1 ROM? I'll have a go at hacking a desktop theme up today

aaahhh..... pocketblinds=wisbar

That's pretty much locked up my 620LX. Since installing (from extracted CABs, since the serial cable is still in the mail), Windows Explorer pretty much just doesn't work - it opens, but takes forever to display anything, and doesn't seem to be able to bring up the contents of the control panel or Windows folder. I'm trying to bring up the Windows folder one last time, but figure I'll have to hard reset to fix this.

encore: of course you can use it on rom v1.0. requires coredl2 and mfcce301. in rom v1.5 only mfcce301, probably.

i meant it was hard to log in (i got logged off somehow).

ah, logging on to the forums ? sry slow on the uptake this week

That is the sweetest thing I have heard in a while. She is a lucky girl to have such a sweet guy!

awh thx, gettin a bit off topic but they say it take half the time you were seeing someone to get over them

Cmonex, I think I've given up already on the skinning thing, Wisbar doesn't skin the scrollbars and menus and I can't get the original pocketblinds to run on my 900c as it just crashes

There's a new version of PocketBlinds in the making. It won't be compatible with PPC2000/2002 however, just WM2003 and higher (which shouldn't be too much of a problem for ce 4.2 devices).

mscdex, cool yeah I'd had a look around and saw that Lakeridge had taken over the development of pocketblinds

I'd assumed that it wasn't going very far as Stardock seemed to have passed the license over some time ago but obviously I was wrong

My thinking is that skinning can look very cool and the desktop windowsblinds is suprising in its abilities to change dialogues etc. but sadly the 900c doesn't have 2gb of RAM to throw about on an additional layer of visuals And I'm clueless as to how to alter the shell like the clever folok around these parts can...

My desktop:


Cmonex: don't tell what's the device I'm running it

kitor: OK

Though at least a few of us know already.

CE Geek: i doubt you know what he meant

I assume he was referring to what device the screenshot is from, no?

I only must change "PocketPC" to "HandheldPC" text on my pda case But it's quite unusable, we (I and Cmonex) are working on it
