Hey guys ive done some mods to my system and was wondering how do i make my own theme. Ive seen threads but have not come across any that gives you step by step.

Ive found the res folder. what are the size of the main icons and then the menu icons.

Swan,

 

It's not really that easy to do it..You'll need to extract the contents of the image.res and edit all the icons you want.

 

Make sure they are in BMP windows format otherwise the unit won't read them.

 

After changing everything you want just zip it bakt using a software called 7zp (google for it) and compress it as a .7zp file, change the extensio to .res and copy it back to the unit...

 

Here's a them that I did....

Maybe it's a good start.
