the latest version has made it very easy to have black navigation bars.
When you open you will see the words "Black Navigation Bars"
1. press bar so you get a check mark
2. press 3 grey bars and drag to the top
3. exit winterboard
after restart (which is now automatic) you should have black bars.

Where can you find the background picture file of the springboard?
I've been trying to change the background picture manually instead of using winterboard for a long time. I've been pointed to the Other.artwork file, I have extracted the pictures out of it, (mind you I am on 2.0.1) and the closest thing that looks like a background picture was the others-393.png file, but oddly the picture's dimensions was a bit off, but i decided to replace it nonetheless. I repacked the Other.artwork file and replaced the one in the ipod. The effect, it didn't change the springboard's background picture and if it changed something else, i've yet to find out.
So I ask this forum, where do you find the file that you modify to change the springboard's background image. Or if there is any other way of changing it other than using winterboard or some theming application, what is it? Thanks for those who choose to answer.

the image in the other.artwork file is only for when you have your phone locked.
You can not manually change the springboard wallpaper, you have to use some sort of program.
I am using winterboard to change the wallpaper, you can either add a theme or use the "User Wallpaper" option.

) As I understand it, you can't just swap a .png file for this because it is possible within the code to set a hard coded background color and that is what the SB has. What the apps do is run interference between what the SB app displays to put a layer between it and what we eventually see on our phones. Thus, how we get the wallpaper solution.
