If you want some advice, use Paint.NET, which natively supports .DDS images. When you save your .DDS, chose "DXT5 (interpolated Alpha)" with "Iterative Fit (Slowest/HQ)". These settings gives you the best quality while keeping the file size exactly the same as the original DDS.
You can also make your theme use the default XMB icons. Just delete the whole "<icon>, </icons>" tags in the XML file of the base theme you're editing!

Sony does not allow you to create dynamic themes for the ps3 unless you have bought the official PS3 SDK for 3.41+.

Oh yeah, I suppose there's that isn't there, oh well good job I'm sticking on 3.55. But I still say we should get someone to test it just to make sure.
