2. Select "open" under step 2. This will show you the folder of images that you can edit. In this guide I will edit “CircularSmoke_01.gtf_1” and “SOT_Theme_BackGround.gtf_1” and “TrilogyLogo.gtf_1”. Simple open photoshop, open each image in turn and copy and paste the provided images bellow into each dds file. You need to past it on the RGB layer and the alpha layer.
   
   TrilogyLogo.gtf_1
   SOT_Theme_BackGround.gtf_1
   CircularSmoke_01.gtf_1
   
   When you save the dds files, for prince of persia, use these settings: (If you get an invalid file size error make sure you have not changed the resolution of the picture and make sure the setting are correct for the picture you are saving. Setting are at the bottom of this post)

Thank you.

I followed all that but instead used 3 of my own images to replace those files you mentioned, but I keep getting 'Error: Invalid File Size' when I try to create the theme :(
also can you mention what type of DDS to save the files as, as theres different types

good point, i will do that now.

The reason you get invalid file size is most likely because you used the wrong settings

I think you have the wrong version, the error is referring to the compression process and you have the wrong dll file. If you have a 32bit computer make sure you downloaded the 32 version.
