Is it possible to save backgrounds from themes. I use Sony Ericsson Theme Creator to view the theme, but is it possible to save the diffrent pics that are in the theme....?
Or does any other program exist that can do this?
I Have many themes, but I only want to use the background i a theme, not the hole theme....IS it possible???

there is a way, but i don't know if i should reveal it to you

go on adonis, tell the people!!

i'd like to know toooo~!!!, sometimes the theme is excellent but the wallpaper isn't animated so if we can extract it then we could make it animated!!!

or the aniamted WP doesn't loop and we wanted to make it so it did

(o and dun tell me to print screen....><)

Yes!
U have to tell us!!
I agree with the previous writer...sometimes the beckgroung is great, but the them is not that nice...so how do save the pic in a theme??????

PLZ tell!

I also know how to do it, and since adonisdemon is thinking about revealing it, so am I.

But still you can download the theme tutorial that i made. The procedure on how to extract the pictures is in the tutorial.

See the last page of the tutorial (page 20) FAQ No. 2

See this thread for the tutorial: http://www.mobile9.com/invboard/index.php?showtopic=4491

Edit: adonisdemon "SPOILER"

On SE phone themes you can just change the file extention from .thm to .zip
and then you can view (with winzip) all the files in the theme and you can take out single images and change it with a new one.

Is this cool or what!!

Advise: do this on your own themes because you would not want to make unwanted changes on someone elses themes!


Retro...

retroboy - no problems

you don't even need to rename it to .zip, just right click and open with (i use winrar) and just take the desired image.

Great - now we'll have newbies stealing other people's themes and changing them.

yeah - my whole reason for stayin shoosh

it's a great start for any newbies (like me) to see how a theme is made. after that, the newbie can create his own. some of us here are just plain hobbyists and not a trained or professional graphic artist/computer user. and like with cars, we want to modify our phones' look and add our 'personal touches'.

we should give everybody the benefit of the doubt. after all, nobody can stop a 'determined ' theme-robber (can't think of a better term).

Everything on the web get's stolen in one way or another as long as they don't take credit for it and use it for personal reasons i see no harm in it though..

...or a 'theme-stealer'!
awww!!! now that's trying hard!
