by text overlays, do you mean the extra picture (unknown.png) that you find in some eboots (psp revolution, for example)?

It's the words describing what each homebrew is. I can't remeber off hand what the name of the file would be.

lol, just make an extra picture with the text that you want and make the rest of the pic transparant, then add to eboot with psp brew as unknown.png
