Hi,
I have installed Tile Launcher on my TF300T, and i'm looking for Windows 8 Tiles in HD (500x500 would be great).
I have found some thread about windows tiles, but all tiles are too small for Tile Launcher.
Can you help me to find them ?
Thanks !

When you create a new tile, you can set an icon, but this icon is just a little square inside the tile
You can also set a brackground image, this image will completly fill the tile.
"You can also set a brackground image, this image will completly fill the tile." -> This is what i would like, to find some icons like that. It takes too many time to create them manually, one by one.
One more thing : is there any solution to remove icon in order to keep only background image ?

Yes, hold the icon, click edit tile, tap icon, tap no icon.

Hello,
1. can someone tell me how to get the taskbar as transparent as on the home tab on the other tabs? if you switch to the 2nd tab to the last one they are opaque. This looks very strange while having a transparent tasbar at the bottom.
2. how can I get rid of those dark frames around the music player slider in the music tab. They look pretty nasty while having a bright wallpaper.
both things shown in the attachment.
Thx in advance!
Here you go
you can find a lot more in the sticky's at first page

1. Install TouchX transparent music controls background"
2. I don't quite understand your question... Are you talking about the slider? or the taskbar? Have you allready installed a transparent slider .cab? (and is this not working correctly for you?)
Grtz,
Degake
Thank you guys! Music controls background is exactly what I was looking for!
The slider unfortunately not
I am looking for a slider that looks like the original one does on the home tab. It is semi-opaque there. If you switch to any other tab except the home tab it will get non-transparent as seen in my picture on the first tab. On the home tab you can still grasp the wallpaper through it.
So I don't want a fully transparent one as from TouchX.

Hmmm....so you want a semi-opaque slider fore al the tabs, as far as i know there is no semi-opaque slider only a transparent one.
I just want the same slider transparency level that it already has on the home tab. On any other tab on the slider automatically changes to non-transparant!!
push! nobody any clue?

Get the transparent CAB above, then add te semi-transparent to your wallpaper manually (via photoshop). Make sure you have "Background 4 all tabs" first.
If you don't have one, I recommend Co0kie Home Tab because it has many option (including the All Tabs Background) in just one CAB.

I remember looking into this several months ago for exactly the same reasons you give.
As there is definitely only one manila file for this slider background/curtain, I decided that there must be some additional code on the pages themselves that affect how transparent/opaque it is.
Unfortunately I have never mastered that level of code change, so I gave up and just went for the fully transparent look as that is at least consistent across all tabs (see following screenshot).

touch x has one check link.

Not so. The slider is the same semi-transparent on all tabs, it's just the background there on most tabs other than the home tabs are dark. Check the images tab with part of an image behind the slider and you will see that it is indeed the same semi-transparent slider.
Hi,
I've seen some nice toggle switch buttons but i'm wondering how to install them... Is it the same as changing an icon or?
you've probably seen cookies home tab 1.8 which comes with a whole set of toggles
Yes I have the CHT1.8.5 standard toggle switches who are preinstalled. But was wondering how to change them.
ahh right, sorry i see.
the icons are in the Windows folder called CHT_switch_xxx.png BUT each icon is made of two icons, the item, example CHT_switch_airplane.png with a frame which is either CHT_switch_on.png or CHT_switch_off.png
you could try changing the icon path in
hklm.software.htc.manila.home.(number of quicklink)
Ah yes found it, tyvm
Hey guys,
I stumbled on this Launcher and think it is clean and simple, I like it.
You can create your TILES or download custom tiles.
Also, there is a different notification bar if you want.
I have found that the notification bar does not move for landscape mode, that is a bummer, but I will ask in the developers thread if it is possible.

Any idea how to change the icons/Tiles of apps? There are some apps which don't adapt the design color for their icons, so i'm searching for a solution for this "problem".
unfortunately i dont think you can dude!!!
There is no solution to this problem. Part of it is that especially if the App has a live tile it constantly creates new Image files that are set as the foreground of the tile. Some Apps use a transparent Icon background which lets the tile color shine through but others don't. With full unlocked WP7 devices it was possible to overwrite the default icon but quite often that also broke the live functionality.
So all in all the previous answer is accurate and there are reasons why that is not going to change anytime soon.
wp7 themes
wp 7 themes is the app ur looking for. its just a beginning, however in circa 1 month will be some huge update, pro version will be released and i dont think it cost us much

As the title says, there's any app/widget that allows to display a live tile of images from gallery (or any other path) like the one found in launcher8?
Same thing
Well, I am looking for the same thing this past few weeks because Im totally craving the sliding live tile animation on a desktop. And Im glad Im not the only one
I searched for live tile widgets and the only thing I found (which was not even like a live tile) is the Animated Photo Frame Widget. This however is only a slide show widget. But because I cant find anything else, I used the free version of this.
haaay.. I hope that someone would just create a live tile app or widget that is exactly like a Windows Phone live tile
