Obtaining custom badges
- Obtain images you want to use as custom badges

.png
files to thebadges
folder - Reinsert your SD card into your console
- Power on your console and open the Homebrew Launcher
- If you already have a Homebrew Launcher icon on the HOME Menu, use that

- To attach badges to folders, tap on the top right wrench icon and select "Attach Badge to Folder"
- Tap on the

or press the HOME,B, or X buttons to exit the badge menu
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
folderpreview.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.
If GYTB gives the error "WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE ELF.", it is for one of two reasons:
- If the error appears after saying "Writing to extdata...", your badges folder is either not present, misplaced, or misnamed.
- If the error appears after saying "Checking for preexisting Badge Arcade badges to dump...", then your pre-existing badges were unable to be dumped. Clear your badges in Badge Arcade's help desk and then try again.
