Just go to THIS website with your PS3 browser and download the MGS4 theme (the background even changes!!! it's freaking cool). then go into System Settings or whatever and pick "themes" and then change the Theme to the MGS one. easy as pie (i don't get why people wanna go through all the "put it on a USB Flashdrive" etc.

Would anyone be so kind as to make me a Machine Head (band)theme?

I'll admit I haven't got a clue how much time and effort they take to make, so I'll understand if you don't. I'm just asking on the off-chance :)

I know right? Everybody is stressing about Flashdrive this and Flashdrive that, when downloading it directly is the easiest/best way to go.

Yes, but for theme creation, it's easier to flashdrive than to upload and copy the link and download.

Also, most of the themes posted in this thread won't be ready to DL directly.

Yeah, there are a lot of sites popping up with PS3 themes. Just know that they (well I know of a few) steal themes from each other. I know this because I've seen my theme on sites I didn't upload it to.

Not that any of that matters to y'all...

Not true, it should be "THEME" (without the quotes of course).

Are you sure you copied over the .p3t file and not the .xml file?

If so, what is the error message you get (if any)?

most of us make them ourselves. or modify the "sample" icons. or copy+paste from elsewhere such as in the vista themes.

Yeah but i SUCK AT USING PHOTOSHOP, and I see that people have made some with weird icons, like there was a x-mas one with santa icons which couldnt have been made in photoshop, so I tried looking for my own but couldnt find them. And the best I can do is change the icons color. I would appreciate if anyone culd tell me how to get the vista icons and how to better modify the icons I would greatly be thankfull.

Hey guys sorry for the twenty questions, but I was finally able to make my own icons so thanks. But ,lol, have you seen the ones that are the regular ps3 icons but in a bubble/button or somethimg and it comes in black and multi color, so does any one know how to get those?

And can the ps3 actually break because of the downloaded themes?

Of course not... I think his either broke, so this is his scapegoat, or he is trying to tell us a joke.

But, with the bubble/button icons... you just download them or create them like you would any other theme.

How to create them - create a button/bubble, then put the original icon PNG over the top of it... you probably have to use Photoshop (maybe Gimp will do this, but I honestly don't know that program).

I've been using GIMP for all of my image editing projects and it will handle the PNG files just like a layer. Finals week ends the 15th for me so I'll have some time over break to play around with a few designs.

Okay I did that, but when I put it in there and click on it it opens a pic of the sample background with evey single sample icon instead of showing the custom one I made? so how do you work it?
