Here is an FAQ about downloading free PSP themes.

FAQ #1: What is a PSP theme?

A: A PSP theme is the overall look and feel of the screen of your PSP unit. It mainly includes two items: wallpaper and icon styles. There are thousands of themes available for your PSP unit. With all of these choices and being that themes are so easy to get, most people do not want to settle for staying with the theme color choices that came with the PSP console when they purchased it.

FAQ #2: Why would I want one?

A: The PSP console follows in a long line of cool consumer goods over the past few decades that were designed to for hip young people (or hip anybody) to buy - and use the heck out of - including: skateboards, surfboards, Walkmans, home video game systems, pagers, mobile phones and iPods. Just like all of these other mega-popular items, PSP consoles are even more appealing when users can customize them in some way. Downloading a fresh new theme for your PSP unit is another way to show your own style and uniqueness via an item that you love to use.

FAQ #3: Do I have to pay for a new theme?

All available existing themes, as well as new ones that will be created sometime in the future, can be downloaded directly from these sites.

FAQ #4: Can I build my own theme?

A: Yes! For example, Sony has released its own PSP Theme Creation Utility software. It is free to use and it lets you customize your own themes and icons. You can find the software by searching for it on Google. Before you go this route, realize that unless you are personally a gifted designer or just want a relatively plain and simple theme for your console, it is hard to compete with some of the mind-blowing themes available from professional designers. Still, it is definitely worth checking out the free Sony software.
