Featured iPhone Theme: Team Fortress 2 by Him Himself [iPhone Themes]

by on February 9th, 2010 at 1:03 pm

I used to be ridiculously into Valve’s class-based First Person Shooter, Team Fortress 2, but the game is getting on in years and I think it’s time to move on to something a little more fresh (Bad Company 2, if you must know – but please stop prying). But just …

Featured iPhone Theme: Avatar Video Theme

by on January 6th, 2010 at 11:55 am

It ‘s been a long while since I messed around with video wallpapers on the iPhone.  They were a great novelty and were very impressive when they first came out, but for me it wore off after a relatively short while.  This video theme for the blockbuster movie Avatar caught …

Featured iPhone Theme: Tenuitas by iAndrew

by on December 8th, 2009 at 10:17 am

This isn’t an iPhone theme in the usual sense, but it does do a heck of a job of re-touching the lock screen portion of your jailbroken iPhone. All you have to do is transfer the Tenuitas theme into your themes folder (mini tutorial here), apply the theme in Winterboard, …

How to change or add icons to an iPhone Winterboard theme [iPhone Theming Tips]

by on December 4th, 2009 at 3:59 pm

[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 …

My iPhone makeover: Musicskin, Illumine and Matte UI, and a bit of Orbit-themed Overboard

by on December 2nd, 2009 at 11:14 am

I’ve spent a fair amount of my free time customizing my iPhone, and even though I’ll feature a theme every now and then, I thought it might be fun to gather and show all of my mods in one particular place. This isn’t a tutorial about how to achieve this …

Interesting iPod theme: Minimal Music

by on December 1st, 2009 at 10:25 am

One of the horrible things about skinning is that it’s really addicting, and now I’m looking for all sorts of aspects of my iPhone’s UI that I can swap out like cartridges. The iPod interface is the latest area to fall prey to my obsession, and one skin I tried …

Featured iPhone Theme: Doodles

by on October 23rd, 2009 at 4:00 am

After a long time, Russel has updated his quirky theme. Maybe one of the most original you can find on Cydia: Doodles. Patrick has reviewed it here back in January (2008!), but the author says there have been major changes and he’s right, the theme is slighty different from the …

Featured iPhone Theme: Glasklart

by on August 26th, 2009 at 11:03 am

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 …

Featured iPhone Theme: Whitoken

by on August 25th, 2009 at 4:55 pm

I ‘ve mentioned in a few recent posts about my 3GS jailbreak experience that I really wasn ‘t seeing any themes that tempted me much.  Well this one sure does.  It ‘s called Whitoken, it ‘s one of those very ‘complete ‘ and transforming sort of themes, and I think …

Featured iPhone Theme: The One Ring

by on July 11th, 2009 at 2:13 pm

It ‘s been a while since an iPhone theme caught my attention “ despite the fact that I very much miss theming my phone while running it non-jailbroken.  I spotted this one thanks to a post from Brooke over at Apple iPhone School. I ‘m not sold on the home …

Featured iPhone Theme: Glass 2

by on December 29th, 2008 at 12:18 pm

It’s been a long while since we’ve done any iPhone themes posts – partly because I wasn’t as active for a time, and partly because I haven’t been jailbreaking as much since the App Store launched. I’m not currently running a jailbroken phone, but I do miss theming, a lot! …
