 WinterBoard has certainly opened up a lot of new avenues for customization on the Apple iPhone, but it’s a bit of a hassle when you can’t even see your cool new wallpaper since it’s been covered by all your app icons.
That’s where clear icon themes come in. They use clear icons so you can still see your iPhone’s wallpaper even when your phone is packed with apps. One of these is Let’s See, a free new WinterBoard theme that you can get on Cydia.
Let’s See works like a charm, but since it uses a full icon cache, there’s always the chance that one of your app icons doesn’t have a corresponding clear icon included in the theme pack. If that happens, you’ll see the default icon for the app.
Don’t worry, though. Let’s See’s developer Tizocman has been kind enough to accept icon requests from users. You can drop him a line at the Via link below.

There’s a new version of dTunes out, bringing the homebrew iTunes replacement up to version 2.5. The massive news about this release is the introduction of Torrent support.
The app’s Torrent support feature comes via iTorrentRelay, the only Torrent client for firmware 2.0 and higher iPhones so far. What’s even cooler is that it also converts any media file to a format suitable for the iPhone and iPod Touch upon downloading.
The catch here is that even though dTunes is free, iTorrentRelay isn’t. It’s a subscription service that costs US 9.99 a month. Of course, if you can’t spare the cash, you can still use this version of dTunes without using the Torrent support feature.
As usual, you can download dTunes on Cydia.
