TIP: Picasa
Maybe you think this is off topic, however.... We are using
Picasa for a while now.
Although Picase is software to organize and edit photo's, it can ofcourse also
be used to view and
edit other pictures, like screenshots. Anyway we like the program much and just
wanna tell you this.
So if you want, you can try it and see it for yourself. Just click on the button
below:

WorldCup Schemes and Color Scheme Editor
2.1
Did you see the free WorldCup related schemes
on the TomTom website? Or already tried to importthem into CSE? Well when you
try to open them in CSE you get an error. This is because the layout of the clr
files is different from the normal style. Not sure if this change is permament.
Anyway, you can download a new version of CSE.Version 2.1 can handle both styles.
So please download the latest version from the download page and have fun.
Want the free TomTom WorldCup stuff: TomTom

A new forum is installed and in use now. We now use SMF by Simple
Machines. This forum has more features, but the main reason is that the email
feature works as it should. So it is possible that you are notified by mail when
a reply on a certain topic is given. Also the use of different languages is
working great.
Just set this up in your profile and you can either use Dutch or English.
We made an automatic conversion, but some members just missed that. They have
been emailed a
new password, please change it.

We got an updated version of the paulUK version made by Paul Ainsworth. Paul
already made his own
scheme and preview and now he made it even better. We like the preview so much that we will
bring it under your attention on the frontpage.
Below you see the new paulUK scheme with the new preview.
Of course you can use the preview with all other schemes.

Finaly the new received schemes are placed on the site. Citroen
C8 (day and night), Iaco (day and night), michelin and a retro scheme.
These schemes can be found under the tab schemes2. Have fun!!
What's new in
CSE 2.0?
Beside some bug fixes the following things are new:
- We made help files in Dutch and English
- Files have other extensions
- You can use your own preview now
- Help is for TT3 and TT5
- Name has changed from Color Style Editor to Color Scheme Editor
- When you double click on a .clr file in Windows Explorer, the file will be
opened in CSE
- CSE is freeware and will be free for ever!!!
As said we restyled the website and made it a little better. The clr files
have a unique filename now, because TT5 can handle this now. When used for TT3,
they have to be renamed to greys.clr for example.
We added some schemes too, so you do not have to download them after installing.
Also a default scheme is loaded when CSE is started.
We also got a lot of requests for the default schemes by TomTom (greys, antartica,
etc), so we placed them on the schemes download page too.
We hope that everyone will enjoy this new release as much as we do.

What is Color Scheme Editor?
Want to change the color of the maps of TomTom Navigator (v2, v3, v5 or Go )?
Well, now you can. It is possible to edit the .clr files, because it is just a text file with RGB codes. But that would be a hell of job. So this is why we made a tool to make it very easy to change the color you want.
It was already possible to download other color style maps, but no tool to do it yourself.
Well some maps were an improvement, but still not what I really wanted. For example, I like the road to be like TomTom does (yellow with red), but I want my route to be blue.
And... wouldn't it be nice to have a night color style that perfectly fits your car's dashboard lights?
For example like Volkswagen has in its Golf and Passat.
Color Scheme Editor is programma running on your PC, so not on your device.
The schemes can be used on any navigator device, like:
your Pocket PC (PDA), TomTom Go (all versions), Palm and also Windows Mobile
(GSM/Mobile cellphone, PDA).
Below you can see a screenshot of our program.
Color adjusting is very easy. Just open the .clr file to adjust; change the color and save it.
Assuming you know how to "download" the file from your PDA. And it would be a good idea to make a backup first. When done, upload the file back to your PDA.
For example, I changed the greys.clr. After that you place your new clr file on your
PDA, Cellphone/GSM or Palm, go to the settings in TT Navigator, and change the current color style. In my example, choose grey.
That's it, have much fun with this free tool!
