    Default How do I find the .png name for the apps? (For changing the icon)

    I navigate to private/var/mobile/Applications and I find all my installed apps from the Appstore in different folders but I can't find the name for the .png image so I can put it in the theme folder to change the icon for it.

    I am currently trying to change the Mail Notifier icon and I have tried tons of different .png names such as:

    MailNotifier.png
    Notifier.png
    mailnotifier.png

    and nothing has worked. How can I get the correct naming for it? I would greatly appreciate the help!!!!

    so you are using winterboard then and you know where to put the images right? var/stash/themes.xxxxx/theme_name/Icons/__.png alright so the names of the icons are just the name of how it apears on the iphone or ipod touch .png so winterboard is WinterBoard.png notes is Notes.png maps is Maps.png settings is Settings.png so on. i'm pretty sure you count the spaces also but maybe not it's been a while since i changed icons so i dont remember about the spaces. good luck hope this helped

    what ^^ they said.. and let it be known that the names are case sensitive.. so if an app is called 'CBS Football' the icon name is 'CBS Football.png'.. also apps with a .com in the name like 'Amazon.com' keep the .com in the icon file name, so you get 'Amazon.com.png'. hope it helps..

    Yes this works most of the times. But somehow I cant get trivial pursuit to work that way. Any idea on the png name?

Im using the stacks app, and i accidently made the entire stack blank.. opened/closed/onspringboard. and if someone could please help me, i need to know which icon it is (when you open the stack) to close the stack so i can make it visible. Thanks!
