Could you add download theme as CIA? Like ones which Howlin theme tool generates

Thats rly hard to do you know..
First, for the theme cia to work you need a code for each one of the theme, if another cia have the same code then they'll counter each other and whenever you install one, the other one will got replaced
Second (im not sure about this but cmiiw) the theme isnt region free, so it need to get converted for each one of region US for US / EU for EU etc

It possible to use random code, right?

Well yeah, but think about it how many themes are there, and it cant be the same code.

Installing themes through .cia is just more work for a less reliable way of installing themes (limited in how many you can have on the device at a time, and if you ever enter the eshop and exit all the themes are gone and you have to reinstall the themes .cia). Really, there is no reason to not use CHMM2.

CHMM2 have a lot of bugs

CHMM2 have a lot of bugs

It may crash rarely, but beyond that, once you're in and installing your themes, there is nothing to it.

it would be nice but the amount of work it would require just wouldnt be worth it in the end

The main problem that you will face is that if you access the Nintendo eshop or update any game in your 3DS, the installed themes are automatically disabled. CHMM2 can present many more errors so far it is the best application to install customized themes and it has no limitation in its gallery. I have 345 themes in my CHMM2. Another problem is that the theme store only supports a maximum of 50 themes. If you make a .cia package with more than 50 themes after completing the installation process, as soon as you access the theme store, it will prompt you to delete additional themes. The big problem is that you will have to delete one theme at a time. And to finish if you want to update the list of themes, you will need to delete all the files generated by the theme store in order to install the update for the new themes to work perfectly.

Not 50, maximum is 100

If a theme takes my fancy, I'll download it from 3dsthem.es and then rejig the files so they're in official theme format ready to be packed into an installable cia with Howling Theme Tool.

For a 3DS on userland firmware without access to menuhax manager 2.2, I can see why CHMM2 might become an important homebrew program, though its definitely not for me in any case.

Like many I'm sure I'm keen to see where the 3dsthem.es app ends up going.

 

[Ryumaru]

Not 50, maximum is 100

In my old 3DS only supports 50 themes.

 

[SG6000]

I'd check again - my O3DSs and other units all have the 100 theme limit.

@erman1337 The settings panel is giving error, I can not save the updates.
I have already deleted the browsing history, but the problem continues.

@Ryumaru Looks like you have too many preferred tags listed; I've increased the limit

---

I've looked into why the website was slowing down.

First, the site has started to gain a lot of traffic; I'm guessing this is because of many more people are getting CFW thanks to safehax+fasthax and soundhax.

Second, I had a list of 800k downloads on the database that was being checked when listing the themes in popular mode; emptied the list.

Since I've emptied the download list, the website should be faster now
