Winterboard is really cool.

The latest version of Winterboard comes with Saurik's theme. This theme has 2 pictures fading in and out.

If you wanna have your own pictures. Try this.

1. go to /Library/Themes/Saurik
2. make a backup of it to your HD. Make another copy and rename the folder to your liking.
3. Click on the folder. In the folder, there's 2 folders.
a) Bundles
b) Private
Private is where the pictures are stored.
4. Open the wallpaper.html with safari, firefox etc and view the source code.
5. Copy the source code to a txt editor.
6. Look for this code.

</head><body style="color: black">
<img src="Rock.png" id="rock"/>
<img src="Plant.png" id="plant"/>

<script>
var fade_in = rock;
var fade_out = plant;

Do take note on the big and small letters used. Rename them according to your picture names. (your pictures has to been in 320X480 png format)

Example:

</head><body style="color: black">
<img src="Picturea.png" id="picturea"/>
<img src="Pictureb.png" id="pictureb"/>

<script>
var fade_in = picturea;
var fade_out = pictureb;

7. Put your png pictures to the Private folder.
8. Save the txt file as Wallpaper.html and place it to your folder. Preview it on your browser before uploading it to your phone and see the fades.
9. upload and place it in /Library/Themes/
10. Select your theme and respring.

Hey JasLyn, try downloading a theme. For example, in cydia, look for Time of Day theme (automatically switches between five wallpapers based on the time of day! It determines the time of day based on the time set on your iPhone). Install and see if it appears in winterboard.

Cuba try test the theme and see if it works.

Hmmm..let try this. If you have any themes in your Pc HD, SSH into /Library/Themes/

Launch Winterboard and see if the theme you uploaded is there.

Here's the saurik's theme.

The main themes actually should reside in

root/Library/Themes/

For this : /private/var/stash/Themes/

i think is a copy of the themes.. btw, i have attached the themes and do SSH them to the

root/Library/Themes/

Was experimenting with Winterbaord too. Totally amazing app. Only thing is, i'm trying to change the system font on the springboard and still finding the way around it.

Theming battery, dock, status bar, wallpaper is so much more easier..Saurik is briliant.

I did checked the Saurik .plist but failed to change the fonts as i am trying to use the MarkerFelt font but to no avail.

Colors and size is pretty simple..

Ya..u can get it via Cydia called No Page Dots and i did replace the spinning loader with fading apple loaders.

The only lack now is font changing as the iphone fonts are pretty limited.

Just revamp the theme with semi transparent icons.

Is called the "Glow Text". Here's how you can do this by add the string to the .plist

After the color:<space><space>white; text-shadow: Navy 2px 2px 3px</string>

You can use any color you like.

Example:

<string>/*font-family: monospace; */ font-size: 12px; color: white; text-shadow: Navy 2px 2px 3px</string>

<string>/*font-family: monospace; */ font-size: 12px; color: white; text-shadow: Red 2px 2px 3px</string>

<string>/*font-family: monospace; */ font-size: 12px; color: white; text-shadow: Orange 2px 2px 3px</string>

Have fun..

Cheers

Which .plist would that be and where? or i need to create one n dump inside particular theme folder so font glow will change everytime i change themes....? TQ
The .plist is in the theme.

1) Copy Saurik's theme to your HD.
2) Rename the .theme to .zip
3) Unzip and a folder will be created.
4) Click on the folder and look for Info.plist.
5) Use a txt editor to view the Info.plist.
6) Copy the string code white; text-shadow: Navy 2px 2px 3px</string> after color: and paste.

<string>/*font-family: monospace; */ font-size: 12px; color: white; text-shadow: Navy 2px 2px 3px</string>

7) Save the Info.plist.
8) Rename the folder (Any name you like) and set it back to .theme. You can however remain it as a folder if you don't wanna the .theme. Works both ways.
9) Upload to your phone.

I have uploaded a Star Wars theme for you as a reference.
*You can replace the wallpaper with your own picture as long is 320x480 and rename as Wallpaper.png.
