  Some themes/wps need special patches to work such as themes with album art for example.  The themes usually state what patches or special builds are needed to work correctly.  If you run those themes on the regular rockbox build, you will see the default wps.

crzyboyster:
at rockbox-themes.org, it will say for the wps you want whether or not you can just use a daily build or a patched build. the themes you are trying to use are for a patched build. either get a patched build or get the non patched wps's.

But I'm afriad this topic is done.  While playing around with my new sansa w/ RockBox, I discovered that the WPS is changed by going into 'Settings -> General Settings -> Display' and then choosing 'Browse .wps files'

Then once a .wps file is chosen, that screen is changed.  I didn't realize you could have a main them as well as a seperate one just for the WPS.  Since I'm new and have only seen the two packaged together, I just figured it was a global theme, and had to remain that way.

I apologize for having this posted when I was only to discover my problem and solution.  But like I said, I am new to this and this was a noob question.  So much of one that I was able to solve it myself.

But I still have an unanswered question, which is: why do only some of the .wps files work and some don't?  When choosing a .wps file, Some will load, and then I can see the change, while some others will load, but then I only see the default WPS, instead of the new WPS i selected?  Is this still just some issue?  Or is it in the .wps coding?  Or perhaps some other issue I have no idea about.

Yeah, I don't have that option. I have a Sansa e260 running the latest build as of 06/24/08, and I have the same issue with the WPS not showing up. But I don't have a "Browse .WPS Files" in my Display Settings dialogue. My WPS just looks like plain text that takes up the top half of the screen only (with the exception of only a couple themes: iCatcher, Cabbiev2). Anyone have any ideas?

ZincAlloy:
nearly all WPSs are broken because of this monday's updates.

Hrm. I was camping until Tuesday. What did Monday's release do?
