For example: ### Examples:
- Install Tela theme on 2k display device:
- `sudo ./install.sh --tela --2k`
1. Install Tela theme on 2k display device - Install Tela theme into /boot/grub/themes:
- `sudo ./install.sh -b -t`
`sudo ./install.sh -t -2` - Uninstall Tela theme:
or - `sudo ./install.sh -r -t`
`sudo ./install.sh --tela --2k`
2. Install Tela theme into /boot/grub/themes ## Issues / tweaks:
`sudo ./install.sh -b -t` ### Correcting display resolution:
3. Remove Tela theme - On the grub screen, precc `c` to enter the command line
- Enter `vbeinfo` or `videoinfo` to check available resolutions
- Open `/etc/default/grub`, and edit `GRUB_GFXMODE=[height]x[width]x32` to match your resolution
- Finally, run `grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg` to update your grub config
`sudo ./install.sh -r -t` ### Setting a custom background:
## Display resolution issues - Find the resolution of your display (1920x1080 -> 1080p, 2560x1080 -> 1080p_21:9, 2560x1440 -> 2k, 3840x2160 -> 4k)
- Place your custom background inside the correct folder matching your resolution, and make sure it's a .jpg
- Rename the default wallpaper for your chosen theme to something else
- Rename the custom wallpaper to the name of the default wallpaper for your chosen theme
- Run the installer like normal, making sure to select your chosen theme
#### Set the right resolution of your display ## Screenshots:
On the grub screen, `press c` to get the commandline, and enter `vbeinfo` or `videoinfo` on EFI boot to check what resolutions you can use, then edit `/etc/default/grub` , add your resolution `GRUB_GFXMODE=****x****x32` into it, last you can run `grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg` to update your grub.cfg. ### Vimix grub theme:

## To Add Custom Wallpapers in Grub themes present ##
Easiest Method (Other Method is to change the install script but that will waste your time)
1. First thing is knowing your screen resolution if it is 1920x1080 then go into the folder 1080p.
2. Paste your desired photo inside the folder (in the above example inside 1080p) and make sure it is a jpg file.
3. Let's say now if you want to use Vimix theme, then rename the default wallpaper for that theme to something else (in this case for eg. 1.jpg).
4. Now rename your desired image to the same name as the default wallpaper for that theme was (in our case "background-vimix").
