So I'm trying to make a theme with some stuff about the Tennesse Volunteers and I want to include a wallpaper with it. How do you make the wallpaper select when you select the theme in Winterboard?

Sorry if this is a basic question... :)
 
Inside which one, the folder that contains the bundles? I've tried and it's not working.

Is the wallpaper called "wallpaper.png" or "Wallpaper.png"?

No, it goes in the root theme folder. And it should be Wallpaper.png (capitalized)

It can be 320x480, winterboard will scale it up.
 
I'm a bit confused, the root theme folder? This is what I'm looking at:

LMAO! Dammit! It should be but it's not. There isn't some js or html file I need to create, cuz if there is I am SOL. :D
 
Okay, respringing with Summerboard mode on.. and... and... nega-tory. That's a no-go, all lights are not green. Dammit, I don't get it! :confused::)
 
Create the Folder name it.
Inside the folder should be the bundles or icons folders. Now inside of the theme folder place the wallpaper. Summerboard mode should be on and make sure to make your files case sensitive.

Yeah, there's really no reason that this shouldn't work. Make sure your theme folder has a .theme extension. Inside make sure you have your wallpaper file named "Wallpaper.png" (I'm pretty sure it HAS to be a png by the way), and make sure Summerboard mode is ON in winterboard. Respring, possibly you may have to restart.
 
Nope, still nothing. I'll keep fiddling with it and hopefully one day after a magic rain dance pow-wow, it'll work.
