Custom backgrounds on your Sidekick 3

Where there's a will, there's usually a way. Sidekick 3 owners miffed about being trapped inside Danger's walled garden of content will be happy to know that some resourceful peeps have managed to drop custom backgrounds and themes on their units -- and it appears to be a pretty simple process, to boot. Modify a text file, drop a few images via USB, and you're good to go. At least until Danger decides to patch to get you non-conformists back in line, that is.

[Thanks to everyone who sent this in]

If I read correctly, didn't some other company make the SK3 and NOT Danger?

[(Unverified) Posted Aug 15th 2006 1:14PM]

Danger is the one behind device concept, features, OS, UI, browser technology and such. They simply outsource the manufacturing to Sharp...

I was just wondering If somone would be willing to make a theme for me? My Dad's B-day is comin up and I want to get him a sk3 theme of the "Tour De France" but no one has made one yet. And I can't figure out how to make my own I've tried many times but still can't figure it out. Any help would be AWESOME!! Thanks.
