Sony PlayStation Portable - Image 1My god, that's a humongous...list. QJ.Net Forum resident owfx dropped by earlier to announce the release of the 3.30oe/3.40oe theme pack (final), a compendium of some of the PSP's more well-known XMB themes for custom firmwares 3.30 and 3.40 OE.

Aside from carrying 32 full-blown themes, this pack also carries custom icons, volume bars, font sets, XMBWaves, and a theme flasher in case the users wish to mix-and-match their own sets. We'll provide for a list of the files below in case you guys want to scan what's in the pack.

Just make sure to have a bit of space handy when you begin your download - the bundle will go for about 34MB. Enjoy, and make sure to thank owfx via the QJ.Net Forums for making this bundle! And of course, kudos to all the developers who went through the pains of creating all these themes - our hats off to you!

Original XMB+, by innercy - Image 1Bogus Firmware, by undertaxxx - Image 1Pirate Style, by desi_soulja8 - Image 1


The PSP's XMB aesthetics is the topic of this article, as we serve up another trio of custom themes just waiting to be loaded into your PSP. Today's themes are from homebrew coders innercy, undertaxxx, and desi_soulja8, and are titled Original XMB+, Bogus Firmware Theme, and Pirate Style XMB.

Original XMB+
First up is innercy's Original XMB+ icon theme. PSP owners may feel a tinge of nostalgia after seeing the sample shot above - innercy states that these are the same icons you see when you turn on your PSP for the very first time. The Original XMB+ theme comes in either a white or black set.

Bogus Firmware Theme
This XMB theme, as undertaxxx explains, is themed after a bogus firmware that Sony launched back on November 25, 2005 in Japan. The author further commented that this pack is the completed version of a similar "Bogus fw" that had reached 90% completion before he decided to cancel it.

Pirate Style XMB
Given that Pirates of the Carribbean: At Worlds End movie is coming up soon, desi_soulja8 over at the QJ.Net Forums decided it was high time to release this theme. As its name says, it's a Pirates XMB theme which uses 32-bit icons.

Downloads for each theme are available below - just be sure to back up your files in case anything happens. Also make sure to visit each of these author's threads over at the QJ.Net Forums, as they're looking for suggestions on how to make these themes better. That, and they should provide for pointers on how to install these themes to your PSP. Enjoy your download.

Remember undertaxxx? Well, if you you could recall those XMB battery edits that you've grown so fond of, then you probably have heard of this guy because he is the creator of those mods. Anyhow, going through our forums, we were informed that he has concocted another way to pimp your PSP's XMB - the "ultimate" black PSP XMB. Check out the screens we got here:

Black XMB - Image 1 Black XMB - Image 2

Anyhow, undertaxxx mentioned that this was originally made by Sérgio Catumba and Innercy, but he decided to re-style everything on the XMB so that it would look perfect with the high-res icons. The package includes the following:

  • 32 bits High-Res Black Icons
  • 32 bits High-Res Battery Icon
  • 32 bits High-Res Volume bar
  • 32 Bits month background + Bogus Waves
  • 32 Bits High Res Load Icon (game, savedata, photo & corrupt)
  • 32 bits High Res Load Circle (Right Corner thing)
  • Xmb line, Shadow, Selectbar  customized to Black/Cromé
  • All other thats included and i forgot
He also mentions that this slick-looking XMB isn't gonna work on Dark_AleX's 3.10 OE. With all that said, the download link below contains the zip files for the Devianart icons noir black styled and the black glass photo load icon.
