There is a new mod in town. Its name is vWallpaper and it's an awesome jailbreak app that will bring video wallpaper to your iPhone homescreen. Redmond Pie has a video of it in action and I have to admit it's pretty impressive.
vWallpaper comes pre-loaded with a few video wallpapers but you can also download some new ones from within the application. Really neat!
A few of you have asked me what wallpaper I use on my iPhone so I figured I'd post it here for you to download. I found it online a few weeks ago but I can't remember exactly where. If you know where it's from, please post the link so I can credit the designer of this wallpaper.
Update: Thanks Stan for the update. This wallpaper is from Effektive Design. They have more colors there.

Seriously, isn't this the most awesome wallpaper for iPhone you've seen so far? It lines up perfectly with your icons to give you a glimpse of retro on every page. The downside? It's been designed for 4 rows of apps. If like me you prefer having only 3 rows of apps per page, then you may want to use my tweaked version instead:

Is your girlfriend's iPhone a little boring? Then spice it up with this selection of 17 pink iPhone themes for women, or for men with very girlie tastes...
All these pink iPhone themes are available from Cydia and are for use with WinterBoard. Needless to say that you have to jailbreak your iPhone before being able to install any of these themes.
I found this really funny theme on Cydia called Amphibious so I thought I would feature it on the blog. I personally don't see myself with such a theme but it is pretty original...
Every once in a while I find a great theme on Cydia and I have to say that Ellseedee (as in LCD) is one of the most beautiful simple themes I have seen.
The problem with that type of theme is that if you don't have an icon for a particular application, then your theme looks all funky. This theme for example doesn't come with many icons and it doesn't have an icon for Tweetie. If I was to put the Tweetie icon on the springboard, it would look out of place.
Oh well, it's still a great theme that deserves a little attention.

This is my new iPhone theme. I find it absolutely gorgeous! It's called Aladar and it's available through the MacCiti repo on Cydia. I tweaked it a little bit so it doesn't look exactly like the original, but it's still very close. You will need WinterBoard to activate this theme.

I am not a big "theme guy" but from time to time, I find some very cool themes and I like to feature them on the blog. That is the case of a new theme that is available since this morning in Cydia called Elegance.
I had to manually customize this theme a little bit as it was created by an Italian designer and most of the icons were in Italian, which prevented my iPhone to recognize most of them and display them correctly. For example, the "Maps" icon is named Maps.png but it is named Mappe.png in Italian, and my iPhone didn't show it as it was looking for the English version.
To edit some of the icon names, I plugged my iPhone to my computer and launched iPhoneBrowser. In a couple minutes, I renamed the 5-6 icons that I needed... and voila!
Elegance includes a lock screen, custom slider, wallpaper, tons of icons, SMS background and more. As you can see from the image above, Elegance really deserves that name. I think it is a beautiful theme that might get to stay on my iPhone for a while...
New website iPhone Theme Generator does exactly what its name tells you: it allows you to create your own iPhone theme, in just a few clicks. Simply choose your wallpaper, dock and status bar from a library or upload your own. You also have the ability to choose your own icons.
Once you're done, click "Compile Theme" and it will generate a download link. Download the zip file, unzip it and install the theme through SSH or using iPhoneBrowser.
I think this website has great potential, expecially for theme freaks like me that love to create their own.
If like me you're a kid of the 80's, you probably had a Nintendo GameBoy at some point. I remember begging my Mom to get what at the time was the best portable gaming device. That was before Sega showed up with its Game Gear. Anyways.
There is a theme available in Cydia that replicates the look of the GameBoy screen; you know this greenish and pixelized screen. I couldn't resist so I downloaded this theme and activated it with WinterBoard.
This theme you see below is called iGameBoy Buttons. There is another version called iGameBoy Fullscreen, which is the same except it doens't show the control pad.
