Introduction
iMatte v5 HD will certainly be a theme remembered for a long time. There is 5 months in the making (full-time work, I’m dedicated 100% to this, that is making the theme and supporting it).
I first made a complete version, with ColorKeyboard, SBSettings, etc, was going to do all the extensions I support, then I realized it wasn’t up to my expectations.
I threw everything I had to the garbage bin, and restarted from scratch, and here is the result.
How can I describe iMatte without having you read this for half an hour? Impossible, so I’ll do my best!
If you enjoy and use iMatte, you can offer me a little coffee in order to keep me motivated to pursue my work! (If you don’t live in Sherbrooke, QC area, a little donation will do the same ;))

Nominate iMatte for Cydia featured themes
Requirements
Technically, you can run iMatte v5 HD without any extra extension, that is beside Winterboard and it’s dependencies.
For optimal use, I highly suggest you install the following extensions:
- (free) Wallpaper JPEGifier, this one is actually a necessity if you want to be able to easily change the wallpaper used for the springboard html layouts
- (free) WeatherIcon, this one is only needed if you want to use the Native Weather Springboard or Lockscreen theme
- (free) Bytafont, if you want to use the default font bundled with iMatte, or any other fonts
- (free) Zeppelin, if you want to change the Carrier Icon/Name to the custom iMatte logo or something else
- (free) SliderWidth, if you want a slim slider for the lockscreen (you can adjust to any size you want)
- (paid) Gridlock, if you don’t want to deal with iBlanks and make nice layouts with the PerpageHTML+ widgets, this is highly recommended
- (paid) PerpageHTML+, again, this is only if you want to use the many widgets that are made to customize your springboard beyond what Winterboard can do
- (paid) ColorKeyboard, if you want to have the iOS keyboard themed, this is needed

Happy that you asked! Sure there is!
By now, you should already be downloading and installing iMatte!
And there is so much more to it…
*** TO ALL MODDERS, if you need anything that I didn’t included in the package to create a mod for iMatte, let me know. I will provide you with whatever you need to do your thing. Thank you much!
I’d like to thank @Zooropalg, this guy may have never released a theme of his own, but he certainly contributed to the success of many themes, iMatte included. If you would ever leave buddy, you would be dearly missed by many. I’m sure if you ever release a theme, it will be a monster success!
Hope you all enjoy iMatte as much as I enjoyed making it!
