I finally got up the nerve to change some of the default iPhone and installed app icons that I didn’t like. I’d seen themes and knew I could change those, but there was always something about a theme that I didn’t like, and since it was usually some of the icons, it made just as much sense to change the defaults (and get to use my own wallpaper, regardless of whether a theme had included wallpaper or not), so that’s what I did. I was reluctant at first because when I ssh’ed into the phone and copied the default icons, they were PNG by file extension, but not “ordinary” PNG because I couldn’t open them, so it was obvious that Apple had added a little extra “love” to them, and I wasn’t sure whether the app might complain if the fie size was wrong, or the “Apple love” was missing. I tested the YouTube icon first (don’t care much about that) and it was fine, so I did the rest. For now, I decided to leave the iPod icon alone (it wouldn’t change, presumably because it lives on the dock), but if it bothers me, I’ll change it, too. This is only my first page, but I replaced the ones I didn’t like on all pages. Yay for a non-ugly Contacts icon, a non-boring Phone icon, and a non-lame Darkroom icon! I love messing with stuff like this! 🙂
