It's not hard to add a new theme to your iPhone quickly with a couple programs & this guide. Firstly your iPhone needs to be unlocked for 3rd party applications, you need the program called SummerBoard and OpenSSH which you can get on the Application Installer. Lastly, you need a program called Fugu installed on your Mac.

Step 1
Download Fugu here & install on your Mac.

Step 2
Launch Fugu

Step 3
Before you can continue with Fugu, you need to know what IP address that is being assigned to your iPhone by your router. Press the Home button, Settings, Wi-Fi, select the name of your network by pressing the blue arrow on the right, then look where it says "IP Address"

Enter your IP Address in the "Connect to" box, in "Username" box use root as your username (use lower case),
click connect.

SummerBoard themes are installed in the right hand side column at: /var/mobile/Library/SummerBoard/Themes/. I suggest you make a folder on your Mac to hold your themes.
