You might want to check out the wiki GUIDES at the top of the page. They will point you in the right direction.

How to SFTP Winterboard themes

1. install OpenSSH
(from list of apps available from Cydia)

2. install winterboard
(from list of apps available from Cydia)

3. Get a SFTP program to SSH to your iphone from your computer
(MAC FuGu--Wiki Guide / PC WinSCP--Wiki Guide)

4. SFTP settings: Server will be your IP address of your iphone, User = root, password = dottie or alpine.
(get your iphones IP address from Settings->Wifi->click the arrow next to the wifi network you are connected to. you'll then see your IP address)

5. Winterboard themes go in /Library/Themes/ , this is the directory you'll place your themes. each theme should have it's own folder.

There's tons of themes in Cydia, just use them. Less chance of screwing your phone up too

True, But someday everyone is going to need to learn how to ssh. Why not today

Will this work on the 3G? I've tried several times.

After several tries different ways, finally got in.

Thanks!
