Get two images. One for top (top.bin) and one for bot(bot.bin). Edit the boot.cfg and replace the "yourimage.bin" to "top.bin" and "yourimage2.bin" to "bot.bin". Then paste your 2 images(they must be .bin files, not .png, .jpg etc.(I don't know how to convert them to .bin or if simply renaming them to .bin works) at the root of your SDcard and I guess, that's it?

There is no theme.bin. theme.bin=yourimage1.bin and yourimage2.bin. Just ignore the 'theme.bin" entirely...

Hello everybody,
Today I made a script to Nautilus (Linux) that converts in 3 clicks background images for CtrBootManager and as it did me bored I decided to share it with you.

Prerequisites:

The top images must be 400x240
The bottom images must be 320x240
"it must" (...not necessarily but I have not done much testing yet....) be in .png format.

For Linux Users:

Spoiler: Linux Users (Ubuntu/Debian)

imagemagick (convert)

1) Press [ALT]+[F2] for run this command

nautilus ./.local/share/nautilus/scripts

2) create a new file without extension, with the name "convert to bgr" per ex. (or "convert to 3ds, etc... as you prefer.)
3) open the file with your favorite text editor and paste this:

#!/bin/bash

while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
    picture=$1
    bgr_file=`echo "$picture" | sed 's/\.\w*$/.bin/'`
    /usr/bin/convert "$picture" -channel BGR -separate -channel RGB -combine -rotate 90 bgr:"$bgr_file"
    shift
done

close this.
4) right click > PROPERTIES > go to the 'Permissions' tab and Check the box that states to make the file executable


So now right click on your png(s) > scripts > "convert to bgr" et voila!!!





exemple here:

For Windows Users:

Spoiler: Windows Users

1) Download the script IMGtoBIN3DS and extract it, with 7zip, in subfolder
2) Prepare your images in a folder (named CTRBoot per ex) with a clean name (like this: top_theme.png; bot_theme.png or theme400.png; theme320.png)
3) Drag'n'drop (yes in 1 word!) your folder on IMGtoBIN.bat
4) Your images is ready! paste to SD

IMGtoBIN on free.fr
IMGtoBIN on multiupfile

Video soon...

PS: Please help me to correct the spelling errors.

the trouble with a lot of these apps are that they totally lack any form of documentation. So whats up devs???, have you all forgotten the software life cycle. you were taught in coillege and uni.....all about the "Software Lifecyle".....seems its the first bit to go as soon as the devs graduate,......cmon do it as you go its really easy....

Its meant to say yourimage.bin it isn't in my boot.cfg stall ?!?!

There is my theme : ) about Kingdom Hearts X chi

This tool is so great! I made mine IA theme using this picture from pixiv:http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=44854082
It's a little bit hard to decide the distance in pixel between upper and lower screens. I tried several values and decided to go with 96 but it still looks a little bit strange.
It also took me a little while to decide the proper color for those texts, since the original setup was meant to work with dark-colored themes.

highlight = "f5b3bd";
borders = "6b4423";
font1 = "6b4423";
font2 = "3c2927";

I'm using colors indicated above. Looks well with this bright colored picture.

My themes use my own directory structure so you can have them all at the same time. Should conflict with no other theme system. Themes are easy to use! Individual files at the bottom.

Theme Installation
============

• Unzip theme to SD
• Open boot.cfg and boot-theme.cfg in Notepad++
• Copy theme section from boot-theme.cfg over boot.cfg theme section (or add it)
• Save boot.cfg
• (Full Themes Only) Install corresponding CIA's

Sample boot.cfg

// Boot menu configuration
boot_config =
{
    // Default timeout in secondes
    // If timeout = -1, disable autoboot
    timeout = 3;

    // Some devices (n3ds?) seems to have
    // some timing problems when using timeout=0 (autoboot).
    // You may increase this value to improve boot success rate.
    // Default delay (8) should be good for o3ds, 2 seems good for n3ds
    autobootfix = 8;

    // if timeout = 0 (autoboot),
    // hold this key to enter the menu
    // keycode list : https://goo.gl/4XLDIL
    recovery = 2; // SELECT

    // Default boot entry
    default = 0;

    // Boot menu entries (11 max)
    entries =
    (
        {
            title  = "System (EmuNAND)";       
            path = "/rxTools/sys/code.bin";
            offset = "0x12000";
        },
        {
            title  = "Homebrew Loader";
            path = "/boothb.3dsx";
        },
        {
            title  = "NTR";       
            path = "/ntr.bin";
            offset = "0x12000";
        },
        {
            title  = "Gateway";       
            path = "/LAUNCHER.DAT";
            offset = "0x12000";
        },
        {
            title  = "Emunand9";
            path = "/EmuNAND9.3dsx";
        },
        {
           title  = "Reboot";
           path = "reboot"; // magic path for reboot, do not change
        },
        {
           title  = "Shutdown";
           path = "shutdown"; // magic path for poweroff, do not change
        }   
    );
    theme =
    {
        bgTop1 = "000000";
        bgTop2 = "000000";
        bgBottom = "000000";
        highlight = "C40000";
        borders = "FFFFFF";
        font1 = "FFFFFF";
        font2 = "FFFFFF";
        bgImgTop = "/xThemes/RosalinaAndpeach/top.bin";
        bgImgBot = "/xThemes/RosalinaAndpeach/bot.bin";
    };
};
