I installed Tweaks2k2.NET and there was an option to skin the keyboard. I enabled it and I think it's great. A) Is there any way to do this in the registry, or by some means other than T2k2 or KeybSkin? B) Assuming the "skin" is enabled, other than using KeybSkin (which did not work on my HP iPAQ rx3115 with WM2003SE), can I change the skin color (e.g. to rgb 0,64,64 or rgb 0,128,128)?
That's not a registry trick. Basically you can create any skin in bmp format and use it in your keyboard buy placing it in a .mui file. That mui file will replace the resources of msim.96.dll or msim.192.dll. the mui files has to be named msim.96.dll.0409.mui or msim.192.dll.0409.mui where the last for digits are the laguage code. 96 means QVGA and 192 means VGA.
the rx3115 is a QVGA machine and if your ROM is in English with a language code 0409 I don't see any reason why keybskin would not work in your PPC.

BTW, if you tested KeyBSkin in your device after you installed ozVGA (I read it in your other post), of course my program is not going to work, in fact, I really think that you should do a hard reset of your machine. My friend you can't convert a QVGA machine into a VGA no matter how hard you try. ;-)

here all all the details you need, by checking the .mui file with a resource hacker you will have all the information you need.
