Ok, first...you need to extract all the files on
"PS3_Custom_Theme_v101-E-1"(one you downloaded)
to a folder
(Q. How do I do that?
A. Select the file you want["PS3_Custom_Theme_v101-E-1"]
and at the top of the window should be an option marked "extract all files"
select a destination...)
Ok, what you need to do, is open "PS3_Custom_Theme_v101-E-1"
or whatever you renamed it to
now open "sample"
"01"
you should find a bunch a pictures...
these are the ones you are going to edit with photoshop or paint.NET(right-click>open with...>paint.NET)
remember to save them BEFORE you exit AFTER you edit them
when you are done editing...
in the folder "01" with all the files...you should find a file named "sample" it is an XML file...
open PS3_Custom_Theme_v101-E-1 again(extracted one)
there are 6 files/folders:
GimConv
sample
MSVCR71.dll
p3tcompiler
PS3_Custom_Theme_e
and
readme_e
drag the XML file(sample) to the "p3tcompiler" file
allow the program to run...
you should see a sort of command prompt thing going going on...
it does everything automatically, just press <enter> key when it says "done press <enter> key"
now in the "01" folder, there will be new files...
ignore them
there will be a new "sample" file, a p3t one
THIS is your theme...
On a memory device:
you need to create a folder named "PS3"
in that folder, create another folder, named "THEME"
save your theme to this one("THEME")
safely remove your device and disconnect it
now plug it into your PS3, go to "theme settings" under the "settings" category on your XMB screen
select "theme"
"install"(at the top)
select your device
choose your theme
hit ok
THERE YOU GO!!!ENJOY!
now all you need to do, is hit "apply" on your theme
