	'''GYTB''' (an acronym for Give You This Budge) is a homebrew app for the 3DS, developed by [https://github.com/MrCheeze/GYTB MrCheeze]. It allows you to install image files as custom badges to display on your HOME Menu. GYTB only works on system firmwares 9.3 and above.

	==~~Obtaining custom badges~~==		==Badge requirements==
	* ~~Obtain images you want to use as custom~~ badges		* Custom badges must be <code>.png</code>(s) whose dimensions are divisible by 64 pixels
	** Images must be <code>.png</code>s whose dimensions are divisible by ~~64px~~
	** Images larger than 64x64 will be split into separate badges (eg. 64x128 will be split into two badges)
	** The custom badge's name is set to whatever the filename of the badge originally was
	* [https://themeplaza.art/badges Theme Plaza] has a large collection of such badge images		* [https://themeplaza.art/badges Theme Plaza] has a large collection of such badge images
	** If you get custom badges from Theme Plaza, look for and delete <code>preview.png</code>		** If you get custom badges from Theme Plaza, look for and delete <code>preview.png</code>
			* The custom badge's name is set to whatever the filename of the badge is
			* Images larger than 64x64 will be split into separate badges (eg. 128x128 will be split into four badges)
			** Badges split in this way will share the same name or app shortcut
			* The most badges you can install at a time is 1,000. If you attempt to install more than 1,000 badges, GYTB will crash.

	==~~Installing custom~~ badges==		===Shortcuts===
			Custom badges can be made into shortcuts to launch system applications; a list of compatible titles can be found [[3dbrew:Title_list#00040010_-_System_Applications\|here]]. To create a badge shortcut, rename the badge so the TIDLow of the system app is between the first and second period of the file name, like so: <code>BadgeName.<TIDLow>.png</code>. For example, a file named <code>settings.00021000.png</code> would create a badge named settings that launches USA System Settings (mset). Badges made into shortcuts will display the banner of the application they launch, rather than being a pin; applications without a banner will display a default banner instead.
