Troubleshooting
If GYTB causes an exception when you open it, it is usually one of two reasons:
There is an image whose dimensions can't be divided by 64 in the badges
folder
preview.png
is a common instance of this, especially when downloading from Theme Plaza. Check for this file and delete it.
There are more than 1000 images inside the badges
folder
The 3DS can only have 1000 badges installed. This is a hard limit that cannot be bypassed; remove images until you are under the limit again.
