mountainbikermark - give this a go, same install procedure as the GB themed keyboard you installed earlier.

Oh my, as much as I love the green my eyesight loves this blue and now I've got 3 to choose from on Gingerbread? Ohhh my and THANK YOU. I might just have to start typing more often instead of sliding all the time.

I don't think i could ever stop using swype, but i do like making these :D

btw, former active duty Marine here! rock on man!

I need some guidance on this. I have the blacked out GB keyboard, and I saw the LatinIME.apk file in system/app/ directory. Do I copy the downloaded LatinIME.apk into the directory and overwrite? I tried this, rebooted, and the keyboard disappeared. The android keyboard doesn't show up in settings.

Make sure you have "Unknown Sources" turned on under applications, then after downloading, just click on it, then install.

I am such a tool. Thanks!

I can only rock on because you are a Marine, there is no such thing as a former Marine :D
Thank you again for the keyboard and especially for protecting my and my childrens freedoms

Swype is my least favorite slider. I've got SlideIt,ShapeWriter,8pen, Swype and Ultra for sliding , as well as stock,Gingerbread and Ultra in qwerty mode for typing

I made one for my Ultra Keyboard. I'm not rooted so I can't do a screen shot. It's got the no border, fluorescent gray (set by me) short trace line, keys and modifier pressed foreground is Android green on the characters with a blood red border while pressed, I've set the keyboard size to larger than stock and have it set for trace in portrait and tap in qwerty.
Ultra Keyboard is limitless in it's ability to customize.

Ultra Keyboard is available on the market and comes with a 24 hour full trial before deciding to purchase or not.
I just finished making a green one to match the .apk shown earlier in the thread with the red key press border in bright red, neon blue trace line and Android green arrow keys on the bottom.
I've got over 20 themes I've made for Ultra

Will this work on the D2G? I know I could wipe if it doesnt work but cant be asked, had to do to many wipes lately, otherwise I would try it with out asking.

EDIT: Meh had to end up doing an SBF anyways so I figured wth..so I put this on the ol SD Card and gave it a flash. The gb keyboard worked fine. Sadly the black/blue gb keyboard failed. :(
