Wallpapers and Themes


Ah, the PS3; The gorgeous gaming wonder. The PS3 has a gorgeous interface with the XMB (Cross Media Bar) and it's intuitive design. The only problem is that it can get a little old after all of that use. If only there was a way to change the look of the icons and backgrounds easily without having to hack it and risk data loss. Well if this is how you feel then today is your lucky day! There are a number of websites that offer hundreds of free themes to download in one easy click. The best way to download these themes is to go to the website on the PS3's internet browser but if you can't or you don't want to then they can be downloaded on your computer and then transfer them over to the PS3 via USB stick. To install the themes from the USB go to Settings/Theme Settings/Install. WARNING: some of these listed websites contain content inappropriate for anyone under 18 years of age (21 in some states). The adult content is not directly on the link; you need to find it on the site to display it. The sites are not pornographic but some do contain some inappropriate content - just so you know. You can also download a PS3 theme creator/editor (Link below) if you are using a Windows OS it's not that easy but if you are up to the challenge good luck! Here are my favorites:

I have not created any themes but I have created some PS3-formatted wallpapers (ONLY ON HDTV). Please feel free to download them but they may not be used for any promotional or professional or any business use. Please contact me at cstreitercow@gmail.com if you are interested on using any of my creations for public use or any other use than personal enjoyment. Here are some of my personal creations:
