    Get your custom Bioshock 360 Dashboard Themes here

    I played with my graphic tools again and present you my first custom Dashboard Theme for Bioshock.

    After you installed it, it looks like this:

    http://mitglied.lycos.de/merdna/Dashboard.jpg

    This is version 1.0 if you want to call it like that. Future versions will include higher resolutions and tweaked bar designs. Please note that this is more a Wallpaper than a real theme. All blades have the same background.

    Download the first Bioshock Theme

    How to install:

    1. Make sure you have a USB Stick or a Digital Camera to transfer the custom Theme to your 360. (I am not sure if media streaming works)

    2. Download the Theme(s) here.

    3. Transfer the JPG to your mobile storage (stick, camera...)

    4. Plug it in your 360.

    5. Open the pictures on this storage at the Media blade of your 360.

    6. In the menu, where you see a gallery of your photos, select the theme file and press X - confirm using it as a wallpaper.

    7. You are done - enjoy

    (8. Blade design and Guide menu background can be changed. Hit the guide button and select personal settings. You can adjust everything here.)

    FINAL TIP: Your Bioshock PC wallpapers should work in the same way .

    i dont have a 360, but is it possible to change the blade-design? if you could make it rusty and alter the "24th century silver metal" design it would fit better to Bx...

    I would, if I could. Only developers can create Blade designs or Guide menu backgrounds.

    You might pick another blade design from the already installed ones. Carbon for example is darker --> http://media.teamxbox.com/wallpapers/txb_360theme_1.jpg

    This one here is custom made, since no official Bioshock theme has been released yet (with Wallpaper, Blade and Guide design).

    Yep: Custom Dashboard Design = Xbox 360 Wallpaper.

    Official Dashboard Themes feature a individual style and different wallpapers for every blade (Media, System, Xbox Live, Games).

    I suspect a new marketplace tab in the spring update... I'm not happy that you can't customize that tab.

    Rapture_Tourist,

    Thank you for that Theme ( I love it!) , and even more, for the description of how to do it (all my boys have their favorite TF2 screens as their themes now)!
