heres what it looks like now.

I'm workin on some cmaller icons, that I like better. I need a list of the weather conditions that match the number of the file. You can't tell from the bbc icons, as it has the same icon for diffrent things. Like it doesn't have a night icon that shows the moon.
I was confused by at least one of the icons before the bbc ones, not matching up with the same unmber bbc icon also. You could go back to the last default icons, that were in it before the bbc ones.
If you like these icons, when I get done you can use them.
The problems with the bigger icons is, if the temp, in the forecast, is 100, it would over run an icon. I worked at it and there doesn't seem to be a way to fit the big icons, and have it so a temp of 100 wouldn't over run an icon. I like the smaller icons myself also.

I plan to move the icons, lower and to the right.

What program, does someone recommend, to put on the ppc, for making screenshots. I have just been using the MS remote display, and taking the screen shot, on my desktop, but the quality, isn't as good the way I do it.

Also, I switched back to the version of TodayPlus, before the recent version. It made most of my skin not work and i could not get the launcher to work. But also the response time was slower to me also. In the one I'm using the repsonse time after tapping a button, in todayplus is a good bit better. I don't need any of the calendar parts of it anyway, I keep my appoinments, in my head . I just use the MS calendar, to show holidays and birthdays.

I really need a list, of how the numbers match up to the conditions, before I can finish. They are the icons, from weather today, but I have already added one, that it didn't have.

i have a question--one my screen on the page before, it assumes the day is tuesday (today), and then it starts with wednesday. but in america today it is monday! what is up with that?

Hi eugchen,
If you want, you can use my skin.
I modified kooKyGuy's old compact skin and make it work with the latest version of todayplus. I also changed it such that it supports 10 rss feed.
It supports weather, 10 rss feeds, battery/memory, worldtime, and launcher.

It doesn't support calendar though, as I still like tagenda's organization better.

Screenshot is attached.
From top to bottom:
- todayplus
- tagenda
- BatMemTime

Also, it uses wisbar advanced and LightMan's skin.

Here is the file:

edit: sorry, older version has a mistake on displaying the weather icon for the current day.

Attached is a newer version.

edit2: hmm, it doesn't seem that attachment can be reuploaded. The download's counter resets though.

So you guys have to edit the file to change "default" into "bbc" in the skin (just search for default).
However, if you want a new version, I can repost them (just let me know).

[eugchen]

thanks looks good on my unit. is there anyway to get rid of the date section on top of the weather? actually have Mycalendar above that, so looks repititive. let me know. thanks.

[br0wn]

Yes.

Attached is the version without the date.

edit: Sorry, older version has a mistake on displaying weather icon for the current day.

Attached is a newer version.

Cool, I will check it out with the latest version. I've been working on the smaller icons for the weather.

SRS,

I would like to thank you for all your hard work. This is a terrific piece of software and it is always improving. My only request is some instruction on how to make the skins file. I have figured some things out. Maybe other posters could jump in and explain some parts of the file. Thanks again.
