Luna Theme
This is something I've been working on for a little bit now. As soon as I have everything finished, I will post the complete theme. For now, it's just screenshots. So if you have suggestions, please let me know.
Instructions: Place the files and images in the proper directories. This was compressed with the proper file structure. Of course, since the Pre is highly customizable you do not need to use the pictures I have included, but can still use the files to change the dashboard and borders white.

How to theme your Palm Pre
Upload your themed icons to your favorite storage or photo site.
In terminal navigate to the first application that is on your bar. Mine is the browser so we'll start off with that.
[CODE] cd /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.browser/[/CODE]
Then type:
[CODE]sudo mv icon.png icon.png.backup[/CODE] <--if you plan on theming your Pre a lot I would recommend that after the first backup you ignore this step and from then on use this command--> [CODE]sudo rm icon.png[/CODE] This way, your original Palm Pre icons will remain as backup and each time you theme you aren't wasting space by keeping old themed icons.
Next:
[CODE]sudo wget (url of where your browser icon is located)[/CODE]
[CODE]sudo mv url.png icon.png[/CODE]
Now let's say your next icon on your quick launch bar is the camera.
Type:
[CODE]sudo cd /usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.camera/[/CODE]
[CODE]sudo mv icon.png icon.png.backup[/CODE]
[CODE]sudo wget (url of where your browser icon is located)[/CODE]
[CODE]sudo mv url.png icon.png[/CODE]
Continue on with the next app by changing directory (cd), making backups (mv), and downloading your icon (wget). The only deviation from the above would be with the calendar. The icons (all 31 of them) can be found here: "/usr/palm/applications/com.palm.app.calendar/images/launcher".
When it is time to move the files, follow the above steps only with name of the file instead of the icons.
Launcher icons can be found here: "/usr/lib/luna/system/luna-applauncher".
All icons have to be named icon.png, unless you are changing the calendar icons. They have to be in named as such icon-1.png, icon-2.png.
If you've downloaded an icon that has a different filename type this:
[CODE]sudo mv faultyfilenamehere.png icon.png[/CODE]
Also, just a quick rundown on what some of these commands mean.
cd =change directory
mv = rename
rm = remove
wget = download
Also wanted to add that if you come back with this error "Read-only file system" type this
[CODE]sudo mount -o remount,rw /[/CODE]

In the same boat, but this theme is still gorgeous, nice job.
Great theme. Don't forget about the image behind the Web Bookmarks! ;-)
Thank you guys.

Wow, very impressive. Now all we need is an app than "installs" all the files where they belong "automagically".

Themecoaster anyone?

how do you install this theme? how do you acess the fiels to overwrite?
A tutorial has been added.
You need to download the .zip. To follow this tutorial you'll have to upload the files somewhere. I would highly suggest
Dropbox.
Sarah, I am trying to do this on my
Prē but run into the "Read-only file system" problem. when I run the command you mentioned (and I've seen mentioned elsewhere), [CODE]sudo mount -o remount,rw /[/CODE] I wind up with the following message returned, "
/bin/sh: sudo: not found" Hmmm...
I am connecting to my
Prē using the Terminal app on my Mac desktop machine. I seem to be able to do other things just fine, but this is stumping me. I am just trying to change the graphic that shows up as a background when the launcher is initiated,
/usr/lib/luna/system/luna-applauncher/images/scrim.png
Any ideas?
Purty theme ya got here.
