This is why I like to incorporate most of my changes into one theme. Hank can you send me all your themes so i can look at the structure and try to combine them. I can't really visualize what you mean.
Transparent Folders(Maybe I'll see if someone wants to host it on Cydia?)
Instead of copying the info I'll link to the info about changing the folder and folder background here.
You'll need the original folder icon or you can use the one from whatever theme you have if it has one. Then open it in an image editor I use Photoshop but I've heard GIMP is a free alternative. The folder icon is called FolderIconBG~iphone.png then you can select everything within the silver ring in photoshop you can use the magic wand it's very easy. Then use the Background eraser and clear just one spot once you do that hitting delete will clear everything within the selection leaving it transparent. If you don't use the background eraser it will just erase to white leaving a white background. Once you've got it the way you want save it and apply your theme. If any of you want it since I've already altered it shoot me a PM or email.
Update to my message above.
I followed your instructions to other posters and your link to hackthatphone, and I was able to change the background to my folder icons! Thank you so much.
All I had to do was edit one of the folder-icon backgrounds that I had downloaded from Cydia but that didn't work. I found the correct files iFile and simply added ~iphone to the file string. Voile, it worked!
Thank you so much for all that you contribute to the TiPb community, it's truly appreciated.

Hank no word from you how did it go with the themes I sent you back?
New question... is there a known issue with the font sizes on the Typophone lockscreen theme/app or is it something I am doing/have done? The text runs off both the left and right edges just a tad... at first I thought it was kind of different, but it's starting to annoy... and I notice that not all of the screen shots are that way...
Any clues how to fix it?
I've been playing with this one.
