    Default Is there a way to make individual big icons?

    I would like to have 2 icons at the top on my home screen that would be the size of 4 together. So I can have just 2 big icons side by side at the top of the screen with all the rest of the normal size icons below it. Can this be done some way?

    Yes

    Just make the new icons 120 by 120
    Normal(3G,3GS) icons are 60 by 60
    The icons will work if you go larger then 120 by 120

    if its an iPhone 4 make the icons 240 by 240
    Normal i4 icons are 120 by 120

    Names the files the name of the app

    Ex.
    App Store.png or Settings.png

    Place them in a folder called "icons"
    Place that folder inside another folder with the name of your theme

    SSH Path
    Var/stash/themes.xxx/

    Theme Path
    THEME/icons/Settings.png

    Realize the icons will now over lap so either use Gridlock or blank icons to fix the spacing

    Please thank me on site or ask away I'm a huge themer

    There is but it won't let you go above 100% which they are currently at

    I think it's called shrink

    Well I looked at that and it will let you go over 100% but it is for all icons and not just individual ones. I just want to have 2 big icons on my home screen. I can't believe with all this JB customization stuff out there that there is nothing like this.

    Well there is you just have to create the image then place it into a theme on the iPhone

    It shouldn't take longer then 5 min not including the design of the icons

    It may look complicated all your doing is creating 2 folders and 2 icons and placing it on to the iPhone
