I'm curious to know what the color codes are and how they're coded for the .xml file.

I'd like to change a few of the colors for a couple of the themes i have, but i dont know how the colors are coded.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

thanks in advance

to change color of fonts use Theme Creator by sony or laysk networks lol

They use HTML Color code's (without the #) smile.gif

Color Chart.
Look at the chart, pick a color and write down the code, remove the # from the start and thats the code you type into the xml file...

Also alot of graphic programs give you the codes in the palette window, the best program I've seen for getting the codes and color you want is paint.net (which is free), you open the color window and select more, and you can mess around with the color chart and its got lots of slider's and stuff and it displays the exact color code you would need to enter into the xml. smile.gif

Basic Color Chooser
Another Color Chart
And Another
Some More Color Codes
A Few More
And More

Hope those links help, but as i say download Paint.NET as its very good for getting HTML Color Code (or to be more precise Hexdecimal Color Codes)

CODE
<Highlight_image Source="Tabs-Highlight.png"/>
  <Highlight_small_image Source="Navigation-Highlight+AF8-Small.png"/>
  <Home_screen_text Color="0xbfbfbf"/>
  <Home_screen Color="0x000000"/>
  <Home_screen_frame Color="0x3e3e3e"/>
  <Home_screen_highlight_text Color="0xff00B6"/>
  <Home_screen_highlight Color="0x000000"/>


i can change the normal hex color codes but what the heck is "3e3e3e" or "bfbfbf" ???
i tried changing those to hex codes, but then the phone says the file is corrupt and the theme cant be used.

anyone?

Those are the color code..... like FF0000 is the color code for Red, so you would use 0xff0000 in the xml smile.gif
