I flipped it, and made AND installed the cia, but the icon was still upside-down on my 3ds...
And I also tried NOT flipping it, and it STILL came out upside down!

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

That's it, I give up. Unless the upside-down icon is because of the ticket for the theme on my 3DS, I fucking give up.

Hi, I'm having troubling installing my themes. I'm using Howling Theme Tools 1.70 and have never had any problems in the past. But today when i went to install some new themes none of the icons pics show up they are only black and i don't know why. Any help would be appreciated.

Huh, I didn't know the icons actually worked at all. The theme icons always show up black on my 3DS, but the themes themselves work just fine so I never thought anything of it. It might have something to do with me running HTT under WINE.

Seems this user had the same problem except his was an emulator and mine was a physical? I checked the rest of this thread and didn't see an answer for this.

I don't think its a problem with blue menu because I tried using blue menu and still got black icons. I used to install themes with FBI and it worked fine. Icons showed up and themes worked. Just last week I tried installing new themes and i started getting black icons. I read the entire thread and tried many things and had no luck. I want to contact Chealsea_Fantasy since she knows how to install the themes correctly but you need to post 10 times before messaging is enabled.

    I've put down the money on the Odin 2 Mini since I just love that Vita form factor. Loved the power of the Odin 2 but the size always put me off, this one seems exactly what I've been wanting.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I don't care about the square screen it's just nice to hold something you don't have to stretch your arms a foots length
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    All these things expecting to be super huge is overrated just run a type c cable to your TV if you want a big display or in my case screen mirror it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    On the go tho I meant, I use my 10" tablet and a Bluetooth controller for retro gaming while sitting on my porch or on long car rides sometimes. Easier on my eyes than the Switch screen.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    My point is we already have enough shit with big displays having something pocketable with up to ps2 would be fine on the go
