What will happen if I just put the background in without making any of the mods in adobe?

if you change your icons, meaning replacing the phone icon with another one. you will lose ALL of those changes if you place down a background. Currently, a background is only a LARGE icon, that we replace to create the background for the whole phone. for example, preferences icon, we will stretch that icon to fill the screen and effectively create a background. There are a few ways to do this, and if you look around there are guides everywhere.
You cannot make a background without doing something in photoshop or some image editing software. unless of course you get a kit premade like the ones in our download section.
To reorder your icons you would edit the displayorder.plist
Currently there is no one image that controls the black background behind the icons on your home screen. or one that we know of :P
