How do I create a custom theme?

How to create a custom iPhone Icon overlay/mask for a theme?

• I make cydia themes for IOS4, and I want to make a theme using an icon overlay/mask, that can be seen on themes like Everlasting Darkness. i would like to know the file name, dimensions for the image, and where to place it. Im going to test it using SSH before i release it. also, what is the file name for folder icons? like the IOS4 folders. they can be changed, for example, the Everlasting Darkness theme. I would appreciate answers soon!

• Answer:

  Well first you should have iFile Cracked from the Cydia source: http://sinfuliphonerepo.com/ I prefer it to the other iFile you can get. Then, in iFile, make sure you have the thumbnails set to on in the settings. Navigate to: /var/stash/Themes.____/EverlastingDark… And you will see its folder structure. The folder structure and file names are important to making the themes work. I can't download it right now because I don't have wi-fi here so I can't tell you the exact folders and picture names which make the theme work. But I know what you're talking about from another theme I have, Elite. ... but I deleted that aspect of the theme, and other aspects, because I didn't want them, but liked most of the rest.
