I just have my system folder



I think from firmware 1.12 onwards the _system_ folder do not contains the themes folder anymore. Download the v1.11 firmware (or earlier) from here gbatemp.net/ and you will see the themes folder under the _system_ folder.

Just copy that themes folder from v1.11 to the _system_ folder of your card and you should get the default skin by R4, which in my opinion is too traditional (in other words uncool). If you want your custom skin just overwrite whatever skin you downloaded into one of the 12 themexx folder.

To change the theme in your R4 just press select at the top menu screen to cycle through one of the 12 themes.

So you can only have 12 themes in the themes folder? When i was cycling through the themes (as i have added more folders for each themes i downloaded) and it only cycled through the first 12

Surely there must be a way to change the setting to make it more than 12 =D, if at least modifying one of the files on the computer to make it work with more themes

at anyrate i have original themes plus whatever else i have in a folder on the card and just have the 12 i want in named folders, though i realised it only works when the folders are named theme01, theme 02 and so forth up to theme12 =/
