User photos in Winterboard

silvine

I've just installed Winterboard and want to use a custom theme alongside a photo for my background. However, it won't let me use my own photo. I've tried dragging user photo to top of Winterboard but it still doesn't work.

Anyone else have this problem?

Just set the home screen after applying the theme

the photo is jpeg i presume? i think it has to be .png and it has to be sized correctly aswell.

"I think you need a 320x480 image & must be placed in /var/mobile/library/summerboard/themes"

I found that on another site, how can you access this? What I mean is do you need an app like windows explorer or something along those lines
