1. Post a screenshot of the theme.

2. Do not host it on putfile, add it to the WPSGallery.

There is a copy on http://www.rockbox-themes.org/index.php?res=176x132x16

I think you had named Backdrops and Themes directories incorrectly, but corrected that in the above mentioned zipfile.  To make a screenshot either capture directly from the screen in the simulator or on the player select the option from the info -> debug(keep out) -> screendump menu then when you plug the USB connector in it will create a screendump each time in the root of your Nano

Urgh....  
I'm sure that is a lovely push-bike, but you can barely even read the text. Too busy. Too many conflicting colours

AND.... if you're gonna blatantly steal someone else's theme, just to change a little bit of the backdrop image... please credit them.

omg....i'm sorry man i forgot to put that but if you look in the theme file it says the guy who made it....again i'm sorry and his name is Chris Banes.  so thanks for the great theme chris and i modified it because i liked it...i just wanted a different backdrop image...but i did not mean to take credit for it by any means....again i'm new to this and i don't know where to put everything so if you will just kindly tell me what i am doing wrong that would be awsome....ok thanks and again, Chris Banes made the theme ....i just modified it....and thank you RedBreva for being helpful...i will do that next time....also when you said i named the directories incorrectly what did you mean???

This isnt' a rockbox question, just so you know

That's actually not what he asked, but you can use that screen to explore what the letters mean.

Think of them as "numbers" from 00 to FF, where 77 is in the middle.  The numbers just go 0-F instead of 0-9 like you're used to, so the first digit is the "tens place" and the second is the "ones place" just like normal.

The first two are "how much red," the second 2 are "how much green" and the third two are "how much blue" which is why they are collectively called RGB (Reg Green Blue).  So pure red would be FF0000, pure blue 0000FF, and purple is FF00FF, etc.  If you instead do 770000, you get a darker red, and FF7777 is a pinkish color.

Really, that's it.

oooo...ok thanks man....i didn't even pay attention to that..lol...ok but yeh i think i can get it now....also i was looking for a tutorial or something that will help me make a theme/wps file...can u give me somewhere to look or tell me how it's done???

[Hweb21]

Read the manual for the codes and how to use them.
http://www.rockbox.org/manual.shtml

Look at other people's codes and themes.

The answer is yes.

Now to answer the unasked question of "Should I post it here?"

No.
