Changing springboard calender icon font size

I've recently changed a bunch of the icons on my iphone homepage. The date displayed on the calendar icon (actual number of day) is too large for the icon and overlaps the edge. Is there any way to adjust the font size of the number displayed on top of the icon?

Thanks

Greg

getting rid of calendar words

i'd love to be able to change the font size or color, but for now, i settled on just removing the characters all together.

for the frisky amongst you, if you wanna just delete the characters, go to /System/Library/CoreServices/Springboard.app/(Language you use/Springboard.strings
and using the same program you use to edit plists, make the data blank for CALENDAR_ICON_DAY_NAME_FORMAT
and
CALENDAR_ICON_DAY_NUMBER_FORMAT
settings.

its easier than that
just go to mobilecal.app and copy the plist to your computer... use this service to convert it to plaintext
[ Convert Apple Property list from binary to text XML ]
and then remove the lines
""
<key>SBIconClass</key>
<string>SBCalendarApplicationIcon</string>
""

for anyone still wondering how to do this, winterboard now supports the changhing of font as if it were on an html page using html code such as color and opacity. You can change those things in the info.plist of your theme.

if anyone still wondering on how to do this, just create a text file and name it Info.plist (case sensitive) and put in the root of your theme folder (e.g. Mytheme.theme)

<key>CalendarIconDateStyle</key>
<string>font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 30px; color: white;</string>

<key>CalendarIconDayStyle</key>
<string>font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10px; color: white;</string>

play around as you wish on those. hope this helps

Any know how to move the date text down a few pixels? Mine seems to be up too high - adjusting the font size mkes it a little better, but still isn't ideal...

Click the image to open in full size.

Changed the clock icon as it looked too plain, resized phone, and finished mail/SMS icons. Next will be the Calculator, I tried living with it but still don't like it...
