PS3 THEMES: once you’ve started, you’re addicted! (v2/rebuilt)

Theme by OPTIMUS

[This theme has been made under permission of the site owner (thanks a lot, mate! :D). All rights reserved.]

Ok, guys: time ago, RDG-CLAN-KILLER asked me to make this theme, so… here it is!
I tried to make it as similar to the original as possible, but I’ve obviously put a bit of my “personal touch”, and that’s the result: hope you’ll like it!
As for the icons, I used the ones I made for my “Bizarre Reflective Metal” theme, because I think they perfectly fit to the site’s logo style.

NOTE: I had to start all over again due to that problem with the background (I’m sorry, guys… my HDTV has gone when I moved to the new house, so I couldn’t test the theme before uploading it :(…): it happened because I created a very high quality image… but this way, the file size was too big, over 3MB (many thanks to Yogosan for having checked!)
So, I made a new background, but this time I had to eliminate some effects, and I’ve been forced to use a black fade in order to keep the file size low (damn jpeg format! :P)…
The background should be visible, now!

-1HD/SD background
-handmade icons
-no sounds

Again, to all those who will maybe decide to download this theme: be proud to have it on your PS3s and to show it to your friends, because without this site we all wouldn’t be here…

Thanks a lot, PS3 Themes! 😀

    @optimus, yeah thanks man, im not getting crusader like im just sayn, im just speakin my mind on my own personal opinion, if i pissed you of spider my bad, i just think microsoft is shady n i dont like em…

    Yep, I know what you mean.
    Well, I’ve never liked Microsoft’s consoles, too.
    Anyway, when the first XBOX was released, I bought it just to play Shenmue one more time (only because my Dreamcast was broken in that period) 😛 but then I quickly sold it back… its games always seemed to me PC stuff rather than console. Maybe the only game I really liked was Brute Force…

    @ OPTIMUSnothing man i just saw that ur really very busy &i didnt want to bother u & i already started to make my own DARK SOULS theme.hey i’ve noticed that the “sample” folder doesnt have all the icons can any1 help me & send me a link or any thing so i can have the missing icons exactlly like the once in the “sample” folder.

    Wow! I can’t wait to see it!
    Go DEAD_NG go! Go DEAD_NG go! 😀

    As for the sample folder… do you mean the one included with the old version of Theme Builder?
    If so… well, I think you’ll never find another one with the missing icons: too old, you know.
    Why you need it? Are you using Theme Builder 2.5?

  4. @optimus, yeah thanks man, im not getting crusader like im just sayn, im just speakin my mind on my own personal opinion, if i pissed you of spider my bad, i just think microsoft is shady n i dont like em…
    @yogosan, yeah sony went down because of n elite group of hackers, ya know those guys that shut down major credit card companys…. as far as your system overheating, hell ill take sonys 30% failure rate over xbox’s 70%..

  6. TO EVERYBODY: Hey, guys!
    I suggest you to play Alice Madness Returns!
    Graphically the game is not so impressive, but it has a lot of style: environments are outstanding and the game is dreamy and grotesque at the same time… toootally insane!
    Its style sometimes reminds me of an old PS1 game: Nightmare Creatures.


  7. yogosan:

    ya, the only good thing about the xbox is that xbox live didnt go down for an entire month and i didnt have to buy 5 of them because they keep breaking……unlike the ps3

    Oh man, I still cannot believe that…! O_O

    BTW, did you read what I told you about Atari systems?


  9. SpiderByte00:

    Can someone make a dynamic theme with 360 dashboard sound effects please would really appreciate it thanks!

    Ehm… sorry, mate, but… aside the fact I’m working on a lot of other themes (and I don’t make dynamic), I don’t have a 360, so… I wouldn’t know how to fulfil your request.

  10. ya, the only good thing about the xbox is that xbox live didnt go down for an entire month and i didnt have to buy 5 of them because they keep breaking……unlike the ps3

  14. THE_DEAD_NG:

    wow im sooooooooooooooooo sooorry , i really didnt notice that , im really sorry OPTIMUS & yogosan , i hope ur going to forgive me , man what kind of idiot i am , how the hell did i pressed “A” instead of “U” man im soooo stupid& before i click ‘Submit Comment’ i read what i wrote like 3 times & i didnt notice that, maaaaaaan so so so so so so stupid X(

    Lol! No problem, mate!

    Anyway, considering there’s a lot of space on the keyboard between “U” and “A” keys… are you sure you just made a mistake? 😀


  15. armin:

    Afrika theme (pkg format) can not install !
    Pkg how to install themes on the ps3?
    Pkg how to install themes on the ps3?
    please
    Pkg how to install themes on the ps3?

    pkg is a format used by Apple for the Macintosh computers and also used by Sony.
    The problem is it’s a very compressed file (some kind of “install” file for themes) but most of all… it’s encrypted!
    It means that, unless you create a Japanese account, you’d need to find a program to decrypt and extract the files: only problem is all the programs able to do that are used on hacked PS3s… so they’re ILLEGAL! And this is the wrong place to talk about that stuff.
    So… sorry, mate, but I think there’s not much to do.


  16. yogosan:

    lol, dead_ng called us gays!@optimus, i just got dead space 2, singularity, killzone 3, dirt 3 and l.a. noire. my theming schedule has gone topsy turvy!

  17. doom:

    @OPTIMUS, whats the best atari ststem? im gonna buy one for a christmas gift.. i dont care what the price is,,

    Well… all the Atari systems were good, but for me, the best system (which I still own of course…) is the ATARI-ST 520 or 1040: lots of programs, lots of games (directly converted from arcade versions), lots of applications… lots of everything! 😀


  18. THE_DEAD_NG:

  26. Penningstoned420:

    OPT, It’s probably the 2nd & my awesome tv. Sober now & it’s still fucking with me. You’re crazy man. The time that must have took is just…crazy! Must respect bro, thumbs up!!
    Once I finally finish my latest theme I actually upload here for the world to see. Then I can find out what the people think- give others a chance to tell me how much it sucks, what I should do different or how awesome it is. I hope all you guys check it out & be as honest as I am.

    Yeah, I’m tooootally crazy! I escaped from the asylum just before joining this site…
    I like dots! I eat dots! I see dots everywhere!
    dots… dots… DOTS! BWAAAAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! 😛
    (Anyway, thanks a lot, my friend! :D)

    Hey, mate! Can’t wait to see your theme! You told me about it several times, but I’m still waiting…


  27. sundance418:

    @OPTIMUSI’ll be waiting for a winning lotto ticket 2, maybe we’ll get ours at the same time.

    Lol! I think in that case we’ll have to share the prize… 😀


  28. THE_DEAD_NG:

    aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh, hey theme makers how do u do it,im trying to make themes but they always end upbad very very bad i mean they look aweful i guess i dont have the Talentooo well there so many people doing a great job of making themes,

    Well, the beginning’s always hard…
    But don’t give up, mate, make your themes, no matter how they look!
    You know, it’s not just a matter of talent, but also of perseverance: if you really want to make themes, the only way to improve is to keep making them.
    And Penning’s right: upload your themes and let people tell you what’s ok and what’s wrong (just like happened to me…) 😀


  29. BigRed0505:

    hey is there n e way u could make a theme 4 me? my psn is bigred0505 let me kno

    Well, I’m working on lots of other themes at the moment, and… sorry, mate, but I’m not on PSN
    Anyway, ask me what you need, and I’ll see what I can do! 😉

    @OPTIMUS
    Yea I`ve been away for a while. I had alot of tests at school for my final exams next year. Im going to 5th grade (holland school system, 5th grade is my final year before going to university) :p. 60 % of everyone in 4th grade has 2 do the year again because they didnt score high enough for like math and english. So youll understand why I wasnt here much : studying lolz…
    Ah well, I like the theme without the BG also. Silver xmb color with your icons makes a really nice, clean looking look haha
    Goodluck with the darksiders theme. I wont doubt about it that itll be as good as your other themes m8. BTW sorry for my english -> sometimes I dont know how to give a meaning to a word you know xD

    Yep, here in Italy is the same: 5 years of high school, then university (well, at least for who wants to keep studying…)
    Ok, mate, good luck for your tests/exams and… don’t worry for your English: I know what you mean, but it’s good 😉

  31. OPT, It’s probably the 2nd & my awesome tv. Sober now & it’s still fucking with me. You’re crazy man. The time that must have took is just…crazy! Must respect bro, thumbs up!!

    Daed NG- Don’t be so hard on yourself. We’re all our own worst critics. Upload one here, see what the people think. Don’t take anything said bad as an insult. Listen & learn from you’re mistakes. Sometimes we need to hear it (the good or the bad) from others in order to make us better!?

    Once I finally finish my latest theme I actually upload here for the world to see. Then I can find out what the people think- give others a chance to tell me how much it sucks, what I should do different or how awesome it is. I hope all you guys check it out & be as honest as I am.

    I’ll be waiting for a winning lotto ticket 2, maybe we’ll get ours at the same time.

  33. aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh, hey theme makers how do u do it,

  36. Duco:

    @OPTIMUS
    Heey m8, nice theme. The BG looks really weird on my tv though but I guess that isn`t your fault.
    Do you have a upcoming project or…?

    Hey, mate! Where have you been?

    Thanks, bro, but… I don’t really know, this theme seems to be born wrong from the beginning…
    The first time I made it, I created a very high quality image, but the file size was too big and the background wasn’t displayed. Now, I had to eliminate some effects and to use a black fade to keep the file size low, but the background looks weird… 🙁
    At this point, I think it all depends on the tiny dots, and maybe even a HDTV is not able to display them properly…

    Well, I’m working on a Darksiders theme, at the moment.


  37. jamesr631:

    it works perfectly for me but the “P” in PS3THEMES is cut off on my tv

    Well… when I put logos in my themes, I always place them pretty distant from the background’s borders, precisely to avoid such problems.
    In this case, the distance is about 30 pixels from the left side and 30 pixels from the upper side.
    Maybe it depends on your TV’s settings…

    (Hey, mate! The MGS Rising theme you asked for is still on my list: I didn’t forget it, I’m just waiting for some good images…)


  38. Penningstoned420:

    Yeah OPT you got crazy with the background man!!! Way to go!!! Makes my eyes hurt, LOL. Or maybe it’s because I’m drunk?

    Uhm… maybe the second? 😀
    (Oh well, ok: no more tiny dots, next time… :P)


  39. yogosan:

    i finally got dead space 2, killzone 3, (and singularity free). themes are hard to finish these days with so many great games to play

    Yep, you’re right! But try to do your best, my friend: I’d like to see at least one, before I die… 😀


  40. doom:

    ultra whoop ass theme… as usual, you are the man,, i dont think the site can handle you anymore… lol.

    Loool! Thanks a lot, mate!
    (but I’m scared: I think they’ll send me directly to the Arkham Asylum… O_o) 😛


  41. sundance418:

    Batman AA. What’s really cool for me is that it releases on my birthday in NA. I thinking about making it my last hoorah since i’ll be 45. Ha! it’ll never happen, i’m playing until i’m 100.

    I always thought to be the oldest, here… glad to hear I’m not! 😀
    (holy words, bro: I’ll play until the end too!)
