Changes:
- Updated the download_plugin sprx to the CEX 4.81 version (patched for XMBPD by @Bobby_Downgrades to allow unsigned pkgs to download and install)
- Updated the available prepNTFS pkg to v1.16
- Updated the available IRISMAN pkg to v4.81.00 (FULL and LITE available now)
- Updated the available SEN Enabler pkg to 6.0.3
- Updated the WebMAN MOD pkg to 1.45.02 (Latest build available as of 11/11)
- Added 40 GBA games to a new subcategory inside retro (Big thanks again @Phil, Lovin these
Thanks to @Berion for the new icons too, looking sweet)
- Have already made 3 more subcategories inside retro too, icons and titles/info is included already, they are just commented out as they are still empty for now.
- Added a new wallpaper subcategory for "Plain" wallpapers (thanks @aldostools for the idea)
- Made the wallpaper settings much more efficient, now the icon packages that need to be downloaded to change the setting are much smaller.
- Made a lot of the icons for the pkgs smaller by converting any ones that don't need transparency to jpg..Result - smaller overall package even though there are new categories and items added.
XMBPD Update v0.61.00 now available to download from the XMB if you have this installed already. To update, go to the Game category > XMBM+ > XMB Package Downloader > XMBPD Setup > Update XMBPD > Then Reboot.
Changes in v0.61.00:
- All Download Items now have individual icons.(see pics, I know they are squashed but its better than nothing right?)
- Added LOTS of new items to the Retro Section, Big thanks to @Phil for doing those and also for adding icons to them.
- Added a "Homebrew Games" category, Just one entry so far, Flappy Birds Family. I plan on adding more soon though.
- The Package Handling Settings and Style Settings no longer need to download any pkg to be changed, it is now done via local pkgs instead = much faster to change, and can be done offline.
- Added a few more packages.
- Few small cosmetic changes, to the note item, credits, category order etc.
- Fixed bug where the wallpaper settings would revert to default when updating or changing package settings.
- Updated the wMM and prepNTFS pkgs to the latest versions available right now.

XMBPD v0.60.000 Rebug 4.80.1 Only
If this is your first time trying this then you can install this package (For Rebug 4.80.1) = Download
- Added a new category for wallpapers, with 9 sub categories.
- All wallpapers with local preview icons.
- The wallpaper/background will open in the webbrowser and then you can press triangle and go to "File>Save Image". Then you can exit the browser and go to the Photo category to set it as a wallpaper.
- There are 2 hidden wallpaper categories commented out, I have commented them out as a form of parental control, if you can FTP and edit the main xml to uncomment them then you are probably to old enough to view them.
- Added a new settings category for wallpapers.
- Added Webman 1.45.00 pkg and changed the title to 1.45.XX (as it is regularly updated I have it named like this now).
- Also added WebMAN Mod to the Tools section as it has so many uses.
(This package includes the latest XMBM+ from aldostools, Once installed you will find XMBM+ on the game category with XMBPD inside)
Or..If you already have XMBPD installed you can simply update to v0.60.000 via the built in update icon inside XMBPD setup.
NOTE: The FULL version of the latest WebMAN MOD is required to use most of the features.
Screenshots:
Note the wallpapers category will show 100 items per sub category by default, you can increase this, once you go over 200 though you might notice missing icons as you move around through the categories more, that's why I have labelled settings above 200 as "experimental" for now, Just so you know, If icons start to go missing inside XMBPD you will need a reboot. Its probably RAM issues due to so many items. (over 7000 when set to max)

Biggest thanks goes out to Aldostools for all the neat features he has been incorporating into WebMAN MOD.
Here is where Im at now, This is Aldostools latest XMBM+ package with the latest XMBPD files added inc Berions icons. Note Ive moved XMBPD up one layer in this version, so its now shown at the bottom of XMBM+'s first level instead of inside Package Manager Plus, I feel it was too hidden away where it was as a subcategory of a subcategory, it made the lowest layer 5/6 deep from the top so its nice to take a layer off IMO.
Changes:
- Moved XMBPD up one layer on XMB (still inside XMBM+)
- Added all of Berions icons, Looking real good. (massive THANKS! for doing those, really brought XMBPD up a notch)
- 3 icon styles to choose from now, Mixed, Bubbled and Unbubbled.
- Changed the update system so it now works via auto installing pkg instead of by downloading an xml.
- Added a few more packages to the PSN section, Spotify, Singstar.
- Added checkbox icons to show which package setting is enabled and which Style setting is enabled.
- Few other small cosmetic changes.
Download XMBM+v0.24.003 MOD-MOD inc XMBPD v0.50.006
(Note: For a 100% clean install I suggest deleting the XMBM+ Game Data via the game data utility and then rebooting before installing this pkg, This will clean up some icons that are no longer required)
For people who would prefer to keep XMBPD where it was inside XMBM+'s Package Manager Plus, use THIS pkg instead (Requires aldostools xmbextras pkg be installed first).

Im working on expanding the new XMBPD Setup section and changing the layout a little in update 0.50.005. And Ive been coming up with a better default icon set from the system icons as the bubbles are starting to annoy me too, just too many of them. The bubbles will be available aswell for those that want them. I will be keeping the main bubble icon even in the plain default set for now.
So far its got:
- Package Handling Settings > Install, Keep, Download.
- Style / Theme Settings > Default and Bubble options so far fully functional, plus 2 spare slots.
- Reboot Option
- Update XMBPD
- About XMBPD > Notes, Support Link, Credits, Current Version (with update status icon)
So its changed a good bit, Mostly the icons, the about section and the new proof of concept "Style / Themes Settings" section for changing the style.
Few pics.
Top Level:
Backup Manager Category:
XMBPD Setup:
Package Settings:
Style Settings:
New About section:
I know the reboot icon and important note icon could be better but it will do for now maybe.

XMBPD Update 0.50.004 is available:
This adds a new category for 4 (so far) of @0_obeWAN's (thanks) PS3_EXTRA disks (These download straight to your dev_hdd0/PS3ISO folder).
Plus a few other small cosmetic changes:
Note / Reminder : XMBPD's (webMAN MOD's really) Background Download function should NOT be used for updating XMBPD or for downloading any file types other than pkgs at this time, it is safe to do so but it will put the file into a unusable bubble inside "Downloaded Content". It can be deleted from there.
The actual file does still get downloaded to your HDD perfectly even if Background Download is selected and can be recovered/Moved to the correct location manually if required, its just not a great solution for now for bigger files.

Just put up update 0.50.003. This adds an experimental "Package Settings" section, it is fully working as far as I can tell. Let me know what you guys think.
It gives the option for keeping the packages after install, or not installing at all.
The new settings section has 4 items:
