I used to have that same exact Cap picture on my cell phone background.


My dashboard theme is the Gears 2 one right now, I was using the GTA IV one before that, and then before that it was Halo 3, which I had pretty much ever since the Halo 3 came out for dl.

I think I still have the Halo 3 theme (the one without all the advertisement all over it). Don't really change it around too often, if ever.

I've only bought a few, when I had some spare points leftover after buying an XBLA game. Plus I bought my system used and the original owner had some themes already downloaded.
I bought a theme with lots of cat pictures...^_^

I don't know about the media center thing since I've never done that, but I believe you can hook up your PSP and use the pictures saved on your memory stick for themes. Should also work with a digital camera too.

I just switched to the new Gears one. I like it a lot. Like Jin, I hated the guide color, so I switched it to the one that the first Gears theme came with.

I have the TMNT one. I purchased points to get the arcade game, then used what I had left over for the theme. I'm thinking about downloading a few more games, so I'll probably end up using left over points to buy one or two more themes.

You have to have the 360 connected to your router that your PC is connected to. I'm not sure what to do after that. It's easy though.

Normally, my VF5 Akira theme, unless a cool new free one rolls out (for instance, Gears of War 2). But I'll be back to VF5 in a week or two.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein (plus it was free!). Although I'm lucky I don't have any Jewish friends, they'd probably get pissed at me if they saw it, with ya know, all the swastikas and all. (and no, I'm not a Nazi.)

When you go to the place on your guide menu where you change the themes, the very first thing you can select is "Customize your background" or something along those lines, and it lets you specifically just change either the color of the guide background or the color of the blades.
