Navigator skin suite nonVGA version for Wisbar Advance 2,
PocketBreeze, ContactBreeze, iLauncher, Spb Pocket Plus, Windows Mobile Today,
WeatherPanel and PocketWeather.


Thank you for buying the skin suite :).

Make sure you have the latest versions of all programs (see the links at the end of
the instructions).

The tricky part in installing skins is that they don't provide an easy "setup.exe", we have
to manually copy all the parts over to the device. If you aren't familiar with copying files over
to your device read the help in Microsoft Activesync (under "Copying and Moving Files").

It also helps if you are familiar with the programs you are using and already know how to change
the skins and how to change the settings of your programs. Many of them come with documentation.


Follow these instructions to install the suite (you should only install skins for programs you use):


First extract the zip file with the directory structure intact (if you use winzip you can
right-click on the file and choose "Winzip -> extract to folder ...navigator.."). XP has built-in
support for zip files.

Dock your device and use the "Explore" button in Microsoft Activesync.


 
Installing the today themes (with the Spb Pocket Plus icons)


(1) Copy Navigator.tsk or NavigatorBattle (or both) to the \my documents folder on your device
    
     

(2) Select "Navigator" or "NavigatorBattle" in the "today settings" on your device. (start menu -> settings
    and "today")


Note: The todaythemes are extended for Spb Pocket Plus (the PocketPlus icons are built into the
      theme). The theme also support landscape mode.



Installing the today themes if you aren't using Spb Pocket Plus (IMPORTANT!)



If you don't use Spb Pocket Plus and you have a WM5 device your device will not display 
extended themes. You'll find the non-extended themes in the "NonExtendedThemes" folder.


(1) Copy Navigator.tsk or NavigatorBattle (or both) to the \my documents folder on your device
    
     

(2) Select "Navigator" or "NavigatorBattle" in the "today settings" on your device. (start menu -> settings
    and "today")




Installing the PocketBreeze and ContactBreeze theme


(1) Copy the whole "Navigator_pb" directory to ...\SBSH\PocketBreeze\skins\ on your device
    This "SBSH" folder is usually under the "Program Files" folder, depending on where you installed
    PocketBreeze,

(2) Select the "Navigator_pb" skin in the PocketBreeze settings


    The folder structure on your device should be:

	...\SBSH\PocketBreeze\skins\Navigator_pb

    with all the skin images inside the "Navigator_pb" folder



Installing the iLauncher meters, icons and topbar indicator and tab-image



(1) Open up the "ilauncher" folder on your PC


(2) Open up the "meters" folder on your PC


(3) Copy all the folders to the


    \program Files\SBSH\iLauncher\meters


on your pocket pc. (NavigatorBackupBattery, NavigatorBattery, NavigatorCFCard, NavigatorFilestore,
NavigatorMemory, NavigatorSDCard and NavigatorStorageMain)


(4) Open up the "ilauncher" folder on your PC


(5) Copy the "Navigatoricons32" folders to


   \program Files\SBSH\iLauncher\images

folder on your pocketpc.


(6)  Open up the "ilauncher" folder on your PC


(7) If you plan on using the "Long Menubar" WisbarAdvance2 skin or don't use WisbarAdvance2 then

    open up the "TopIndicatorLM" folder on your PC. Go to step (9).


(8) If you want to use any of the other WisbarAdvance2 skins open up the "TopIndicator" folder on
    
    your PC.


(9) Copy all the files from the folder you just opened on your PC to 


    \Program Files\SBSH\iLauncher\images

    on your pocket pc. Answer yes to the "owerwrite files" prompt.

Note: this owerwrites the default taskbar meter indicator, but I included a backup of the original
      ones in case you want to revert back to them. The backup is in the folder named "TopIndicatorOriginal"


(10) Open up the "ilauncher" folder on your PC


(11) Copy the "NavigatorTab" folder from your pc to
     

     \program Files\iLauncher\images


(12) To use all these ilauncher features you have to go into the iLauncher settings and specifically

     select the meters and icons you want to use (they won't change automatically). If you are already

     using the topbar indicator you may have to soft-reset your device before the Navigator one shows up.




Installing the Wisbar Advance 2 theme


(1) Copy the folder named Navigator_WA to

    ...\...Wisbar Advance\Themes
	
    on your device. (this might be a different folder depending on where you installed
    WisbarAdvance2, but it is usually found under the "Program Files" folder)


(2) Select "Navigator" or "NavigatorBattle" or "Navigator Long Menu" inside the WisBarAdvance 2 "My Theme"
    settings. You should use "NavigatorBattle" if you use the NavigatorBattle today theme.


    Note: The "Navigator Long Menu" skin has a full taskbar and bottombar. If you want to use your own
          today themes then select this one (or if you have a lot of icons in the menubar)


    Hint: There are two custom buttons: Navigator_rotate.png and Navigator_shutdown.png. To use
    them you have to import the theme into "custom theme" and then modify the custom buttons.
    Useful and helpful information on Wisbar Advance2 can be browsed at the WA2 forums:

	http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/index.php


   The folder structure on your device should be:

	...\Wisbar Advance\Themes\Navigator_WA

    with all the skin images inside the "Navigator_WA" folder



Note: If you have a Phone Edition device then use the phone edition versions of the skins.
