How to Darken the Background Picture Color on Windows Mobile
When you change the background picture on your Windows Mobile device using the "Today" theme menu, you may notice that the picture appears washed out. This is because of the transparency settings Windows Mobile uses by default, which are intended to make onscreen text easier to read. However, you may wish to remove this transparency to darken the image and make it easier to see. Darken your Today screen background using the Pictures & Videos application on your Windows Mobile device.
