Okay so I go to var/stash/themes find the theme. Then I go to the lockbackground or whatever, deleted it, now the wallpaper is gone off the theme.
Now how do I get my wallpaper from my camera roll to be the lockscreen wallpaper for the theme? I know I have to name it wallpaper.png

I was actually wondering this same thing this morning (weird)
at least I think we have the same question. I basically just want to move pictures from my camera over to the wallpaper folder, couldn't find the normal camera roll area in Ifile however.
Exactly. For example,. I have an HTC widget theme. But it comes with this rainbow wallpaper. I want to change that to a wallpaper from my camera roll. But HOW ?? lol. I know peope on here can help.
My guess is use ifile. Copy and paste ur photo from the DCIM folder to the theme folder and rename it as such. Obviously move/rename the one u don't want so no conflicting file names.
I know to use iFile but this doesn't work either. Ive offered 10$ to devs for an answer yet no emails, no responses. Guess no one knows.
what exactly is a zip file? I can send you the wallpaper and what the theme is called if that helps
A .zip file would be the whole theme folder compressed into a single file making much easier for distributing.
If you downloaded it from the web you can post that link. If you got if from Cydia, navigate to the Themes folder through iFile hit 'Edit', select the appropriate theme, then tap the .zip icon (2nd icon from the left), tap 'Create', then post up the created .zip file.

Okay I created the zip file but where do I find it now? It said compressing and then nothing else happened.
Anyways the theme is called HTC Animated lock background

Do u have Aim or something? Okay Im in the folder. I see Private...Sources...configureme.js...lockbackground.html....lockbackground.png
edit..see it. Okay I can click unarchiver or zip viewer
Ive searched youtube, made threads in 3 different apple forums, offered 10$ to 5 different devs and no one has been able to help. Its astonishing how the devs who beg for support wouldn't take 10$ to write a simple step by step that takes less than 10 minutes.
K dude nobody would help me either lemme see if I can figure it out again and walk u through it.

First go download ifile through cydia.

Once you have ifile, you want to open it, in the top left keep hitting until you see / ...........scroll down and click on VAR......... Scroll down and click on stash.......... In my theme I then click on noki.wallpaper.theme, then click on private, then delete the wallpaper.png files. Do the same for the lockscreen. You can then change wallpaper freely. Lemme know how you make out.

Okay When i click private i see animations....digits...icon sets...sytlesheets. am.png. bg.png...forecast.png...pm.png...translation.js
Man,there's a video somewhere but I can't find the damn thing. But yes, I explained how I did mine, but it may differ by themes. Just look for wallpaper.png and lock wallpaper.png and delete them.
