Tired of Rotating Themes? Let Pocket Theme Manager 2.0 Do It For You

OK, the Themes Are on my Pocket PC, Now What?
Two components of Pocket Theme Manager reside on your Pocket PC, a today screen plug-in and the switching application.

The first of these, the Today screen plug-in, is only required if you want to view animated themes. If you're more of a static person you don't need to activate it.
The plug-in options are pretty straightforward, you specify where the animated themes are located and how much space should they take up on the screen. I typically had the best luck sticking with the default values.

One problem that I did note with the animated themes was that they all seemed to be offset to the left about the width of a scroll bar - as if they were shifted to make room for a non-existent scroll bar. In fact if the scroll bar was present they shifted left that much farther.
