Re: Installation???

A today screen theme is usually formated as a .tsk file. The .tsk file is what is usually inside the zip file.
After downloading the zip file and unzipping it, connect your ppc to your pc. Then simply drag the tsk file from your pc to your ppc.
I have a folder in My Documents which I call Backgrounds. That's where I put my today screen themes. Then it's just a matter of going into your settings and selecting the theme.

Coz

I usually put them in the root of my Storage Card, it's one less thing to transfer when I need to do a hard reset

If it's the Diamond Theme for SPB Mobile Shell then you also need to buy, download, and install Mobile Shell.
