Sista – iPhone and iPod touch Theme

Normally I stick to writing about themes that can be installed via Cydia however, there are so many AWESOME themes that can only be installed via SSH… and Sista is one of them.

I found Sista, by SoundForge, on MacThemes and instantly loved it! It is a nicely designed, clean theme. The theme’s package contains a decent amount of icons and a .PDS file so that you can create your own. I will be honest, I’m partial to the Smoog theme via the BigBoss source but, it’s nice to change it up every once and a while! Below is info about the theme and a link to the download.

Package includes:
– All default iPhone/iTouch icons.
– Some 3rd party app icons.
– Total of 67 icons (32 alts included)
– A template, PSD.
– Wallpaper(s), Dock(s), PageIndicators, Badge and closebox.
– LiveClock (liveclock.plist included)
– SBBadgeBG (new info.plist included)

Feel free to make more icons (but please keep copy/paste icons to a minimum).

You can download the theme HERE and you can view the theme’s original forum post HERE.

If you would like more icons for Sista, and are not interested in making them yourself, you can find additional icons HERE.

Remember, if you would like to be able to activate/deactivate the theme via WinterBoard, you will want to SSH the theme into the Library/Themes folder on your iPhone or iPod touch.

ScreenShots:

Note: In the theme’s original package the icon labels are transparent. If you would prefer to have icon labels… follow the instructions below.

1. Open the Info.plist (in the theme’s folder on your device).

2. Change the color of the “UndockedIconLabelStyle” from transparent to #000000

UndockedIconLabelStyle
color: transparent; text-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.9) 0px 1px 0px;

UndockedIconLabelStyle
color: #000000; text-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.9) 0px 1px 0px;

3. Change the “text-shadow” from (0,0,0,0.9) to (0,0,0,0)

UndockedIconLabelStyle
color: transparent; text-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0.9) 0px 1px 0px;

UndockedIconLabelStyle
color: #000000; text-shadow: rgba(0,0,0,0) 0px 1px 0px;

4. If you would also like icon labels for the docked icons, just repeat steps 2 & 3 for the “DockedIconLabelStyle”
