Guide:

1. Run Dynamic theme editor and select Prince of Persia

2. Select “open” under step 2. This will show you the folder of images that you can edit. In this guide I will edit “CircularSmoke_01.gtf_1” and “SOT_Theme_BackGround.gtf_1” and “TrilogyLogo.gtf_1”. Simple open photoshop, open each image in turn and copy and paste the provided images bellow into each dds file. You need to past it on the RGB layer and the alpha layer.

TrilogyLogo.gtf_1
SOT_Theme_BackGround.gtf_1

4. Now click the theme details button and change them as you like.

5. Click the browser button and select where you want to save your theme.

6. The Prince of Persia theme that we are editing has lots of other pictures that we have not edited, so we don’t want to show them. This is where we pick which images/effects we want to remove. Tick them as shown:
