You cannot get the "Glow" in the .artwork files. I have made maddifications to the stock pop ups o my latest modification in the Perfect storm thread. The problem is that any transparency is distorted when packed into the .artwork files. That is why the pops are stock on my green release. Like I said i did make a modified on in the PS thread that is a beautiful blue with modified black and blue pops in the artwork.

Love the looks of this keyboard, and really want to try it out.

Unfortunately, I am having a small problem getting it on my iPhone.

JB 2.2.1 (5H11)

When I try to move the theme over to the them dir, it gripes about file name too long, or illegal characters.

I encountered this error once before, but it was just a long folder name, and a rename took care of it.

There are several files that seem to be too long here, and dont know if renaming is an option(or the only option).

Just curious if anyone else encountered this, and if so how they fixed. Or, if there is a way to fix it.

TIA

I would rename the theme folder to just StormKb.theme it may be the decimal in the 7.5 that is messing it up. Try that and let us know..You cannot rename the internal theme folders as they MAP to a specific graphic determined by name.

**renegad3** · 02-16-2009, 04:57 PM

Yes, that was actually the first thing I tried. Its definitely the file name lengths inside the folder that are causing the issue.

Just curious as to why I cant do it, but apparently others have no problem.

EDIT: well on a whim, I tried a different method of sending it to the iPhone, and it worked!

Apparently there is a limitation of some sort when using Finder/Netatalk combination. I used Transmit to log in and it transfered just fine and am now using this wonderful keyboard!

**barsoverbeats** · 02-16-2009, 05:13 PM

Maybe the program that you are using to move the files to the phone?

I've been using mrpunk's storm keyboard since it was first posted. While it is incomplete its nothing I can't live with (such as the space bar not being blue/glow like the other keys, etc), and I especially love that when you press a key it does NOT pop-up. I can't stand that about the stock keyboard! I mess up big-time with the keys popping up as I type. Its really irritating and one of the reasons I almost didn't get an iPhone so THANK YOU mrpunk for not having the keyboard pop-ups. I actually got my iPhone in January, three days after I got it I found this storm keyboard theme here and have been using it ever since... I did try a few others for maybe 5 minutes each and no one else makes a keyboard where the keys do not pop up at me, so it was adios to those. Well done and thanks for your hard work on this one.

^^^^why not just use ebl's keyboard from the PerfectStorm theme.

**SoundForge** · 03-15-2009, 02:49 PM

I finally got permission from mrpunk2u to add the Storm Keyboard to my Stormy Black theme. Thanks mrpunk2u!

I've found a/the solution to make the Storm Keyboard compatible with iRealSMS (by making some extra UIImages)

........and iPhoneAddict (thanks mate!!) made some UIImages so the Storm Keyboard supports AZERTY, QWERTZ and QZERTY formats.

You can download the fixed Storm(y) (Black) Keyboard over here at #174.

Have fun!

i seem to be having a problem getting this keyboard to work. I have read every post in this thread but cant seem to get it to work.
I've ssh'd it into my iphone (themes) even dissabled all other WB themes and mods but i am still unable to get it to work. I dont have any custon sms 3p apps or safari.
Tried renaming the folder to Storm Keyboard.theme but still no luck.

any tips on how to reslove this or point me out what im doing wrong.
Phone is 3g JB on 3.0
many thanks

**eatjello** · 07-26-2009, 12:46 PM

keyboard themes do not work in winterboard on 3.0 as of right now, we have to wait for a update

**Sn1p3s** · 07-26-2009, 12:53 PM

That would explain me being confuddled for the last 2 hours then >.<

thanks for the quick reply, u saved me being more frustrated.
