thanks for the kind words.

yes, I’m going to put up a photoshop tutorial fairly soon. I’m going to wrangle my little brother to help me with that as he is excellent with photoshop and may be able to simplify the process even more than what i can.

to all saying it’s a pirate, i never personally would have noticed that or taken offense. that’s the pic TiPb has always used when it comes to hacking/jailbreaking/unlocking etc. Doesn’t bother me a bit. I think it’s funny.

I set up an RSS for my blog through feedburner as well, so if you have an RSS client on your iPhone or through your computer, just subscribe to my RSS feed and you should get any updates I make right away

Pirates are criminals. Jailbreakers are not (except that according to Apple, Jailbreakers are potential Terrorists who can (and will) take down entire cellular networks with Jailbroken iPhones).

I think that the illustration accompanying this story betrays an attitude on the part of the BlogMeister that is insulting to many people.

while you can use DiskAid or iPhoneBrowser, they do not give you total control and manipulation power over the phone. Most of what I will be doing will require more manipulation over files than what those programs offer, so I figured it’s better to get people used to SSH’ing into the device before getting into harder tutorials.

But yes, if all you are wanting to do is swap out icons, yes you can use DiskAid or other similar programs to overwrite the current .png files. I just think SSH’ing is a more efficient way to modify and edit files.
