Ipod skin help

I just bought this nano look alike a while ago, and I wanted to change the theme into a ipod look alike theme. I went through the faqs and stuff, extracted my firmware etc etc. I know how to change each pic, but how do u change the whole theme (interface) into an ipod theme. I'm guessing u dont have to replace every single file. Thanks in advance!

daryoush111 , well the bad news is you'll to replace each individual image file by itself. There is no shortcut way, and even the shortcut way i can think of is not guaranteed.

What are the chances of the images (The new theme images and the old theme images) not matching? (i.e Them being completely different sizes...)

To me, It appears the chance of a given theme actually working with a specific player is slim - As that player will probably have a completely different image layout.

Moddy, You are right the chances of a theme matching your firmware completely if at all are slim.
Some themers do include the original pdf files etc so that you can edit the images to suit your players layout, or you need to create new images yourself.
There are also some aspects that can not be changed like text colors and text background colors.
