How to change or add icons to an iPhone Winterboard theme [iPhone Theming Tips]
[Jailbreak only] There’s a saying that goes like this: “Those who lack Photoshop and the skill required to manipulate and create images tweak their themes instead.” You probably haven’t heard of it, since I just made it up now. If you’ve ever found a theme you loved, but just wanted …

Featured iPhone Theme: Glasklart
While, complete themes such as this one mentioned recently can offer some new functionality, I find simpler themes much more usable. There are a few simple themes that I like, but my favorite by far is called Glasklart. As you can see, Glasklart does only one thing really. It brings …
