Step 6) I have only listed a few for example. For instance if it shows _vendorID="105"> and your vendor code is "100" then make it look like this _vendorID="100">
Just a friendly reminder you only need to edit the ones with your device type for example all the 8700 are for 87xx only any others will laod but not be functionable. Qwerty is for all 72xx series and Reduced is for 71xx series devices.
Step 7) After you have finished changing the Vendor Codes just save the file and run apploader.Author:

A bit different, but did exactly the same thing:
Instead of changing the original ID number I just added mine into the list, i.e.: if it had "vendorID= 100" I changed it to "vendorID= 100|102" (I have an 8700c, Cingular is 102).
Most have their logo in the header, but are nice themes none the less. I especially like Verizon's with the nested menu structure.
I guess I'll have to break down and try my hand at making some of my own soon.Author:

Playing a bit further, look for something like this (depending on your model and version of course):
