“What’s the sitch?”

I’ve recently become completely infatuated with Kim Possible, a quirky and hip cartoon about an overachieving high school girl who is “cheerleader by day, crime stopper by night”. With her friends Ron Stoppable (always accompanied by his naked mole rat, Rufus) and Wade (who never appears in person, only on Ms. Possible’s “Kimmunicator”), she keeps the world safe from evil masterminds. Surprisingly enough for a Disney show, Kim Possible is masterfully written and animated, with more than enough intelligence to keep adults as glued to the screen as younger viewers. I haven’t laughed this hard at a cartoon since Samurai Jack debuted a few years ago.

As any good obsession revolving around a specific piece of intellectual property will do, Kim Possible has driven me to scour the Web for desktop wallpaper, cell phone ring tones, and whatever other digital tchotchke I can point my browser at. Inspired by the Zodiac Gamer background competition, I took Photoshop in hand and created my own Zodiac launcher skin based on my new favorite cartoon character.

Click the image above to see the skin full size.


To get Kim into your Zodiac’s launcher, follow these steps:

  1. Download the skin via this link.
  2. Copy the file to an SD card or HotSync it to your Zodiac.
  3. Press the Home button or tap the Home icon in the Zodiac status bar.
  4. Tap the Menu button in the status bar to open the launcher’s menu, then select Options -> Preferences to open the Preferences dialog box.
  5. Tap the Background selector trigger to open the Customize Background dialog box.
  6. Select “Kim-Possible-Zodiac” from the list of images, then tap OK.
  7. Tap Done.

You should now have a lovely Kim Possible background for your launcher. To match the launcher’s title bar color to the skin, do the following:

  1. Tap the Menu button in the status bar to open the launcher’s menu, then select Options -> Preferences to open the Preferences dialog box.
  2. Tap the Color Theme selector trigger.
  3. Tap the darkest green theme icon (first column, third row).
  4. Tap OK.
  5. Tap Done.

    I do have the mp3 and wav, but somehow I can’t convert them to MIDI polyphonic. You can get the files (They’re zipped) here at http://freefilehosting.net/player.cfm?id=1423A981-CF1F-D571-ADE3B1299D6FE729

    btw, I ripped the tone from KP’s mini flash game on her official site (hope Disney doesn’t have a problem with that :P).

    Hey! I’m a good Kim fan 2! I have actually played in a small local play where I had to act as Kim Possible. Ireally wanted the part of Shego but playing as Kim was good. I didn’t like it when the director had to shave his pet ra, tho. Eww. I had to use a fake “Kimunicator” with a similar “Beep Beep Beebeep!” on it. But now, I’m actually lokking for one that I can put on MY phone. I have searched far and wide and found that many have tried to obtain the Pager music-but, as they all sadly did anything but-fail.
    I haven’t a clue as to track down the file but I am certainely hoping to. If I find it, I will post it for everyone to see. But if someone else had suceeded, please, help the rest of us and notify us! Sincerely, KcKat (Kim-Kat)
