Create your own Icon Dock TUT (just the dock)

This is a TUT on how to make your own Icon Dock. Warning: I used Windows so I do not know if it is the same for Mac users

Things you will need:

Iphone or iPod Touch
WinterBoard
To know how to use and have access to SSH
A picture editing program (I prefer Paint.NET)
The transparent dock theme that I think comes with WinterBoard
A picture or design you want your dock to be

Here we go!

Set up your ipod with SSH and go to /Private/var/stash/Themes

Click on Transparent Dock and minimize it for now.

Open Paint.NET (or whatever you use) and click File/New. Set it as 320X91.

Get the picture or design you want and copy and past or drag it onto the rectangle.

It should now ask if you want to expand canvas or keep it the same. You should keep it the same.

Resize your image to fit in the rectangle and make it how you want.

Once you are done making it fancy, click File/Save As. Save it to your desktop and name it Dock (Make sure that you save it as .PNG or else this wont work)

Drag the Dock.PNG to the WinSCP window and drop it down there. Click Copy and then Yes when it asks.

Now go back one to /Private/var/stash/Themes and rename the transparent dock to (insert dock name here).theme

Now exit WinSCP, go to your ipod, go to WinterBoard and pick your new dock

I dont think it will work if you have a complete theme on it already so dont freak if it doesnt work

CONGRATS!! You are now done.
