I will collect the other themes in this thread in the first post with 
credits to the artists for an easier overview. Please give me permissions to post it here. Also mention a name and the post number *Im to busy and to lazy to list them here. If someone does the code for me and send me text, ill copy paste it in this post *

1.1 (The *Lite* version of it)
---------------------------

Changelog for 1.1:
Back to the roots, for less memory usage and a better usability.
- Like Version 1.0 but with Cover Overlay
- Set the size and the position for the Album in a new plist.
- Seperated Theme and Extension in two Downloads
---------------------------


Preview:



Credits to Thyraz, he created the "Vinyl Touch" cover-artwork 
displayed above.
Download the theme from here here 
and place it in /Library/Themes/ on your device

Installation:
Manually Installation only at the moment.
- Download the package from here
- extract the zip file
- copy the dylib to /Library/Mobile Substrate/DynamicLibraries/ 
on your device (delete the old one first if you're upgrading)
- activate a SnowCover theme in Winterboard and respring.


Modding:
Inside a theme the following files need to be placed inside /Bundles/
com.apple.springboard

- SCCoverBG.png is the Lockscreen Background used while the Extension 
is visible.
- SCCoverFrame.png is the cover itself, displayed behind the iTunes 
Album Artwork.
- SCCoverOverlay.png is a image that is displayed above the Album-
Artwork, so it matches your Cover-Style in a better way.

- com.gi-lo.SnowCover.plist controls the size and position ov the 
cover artwork.
4 keys inside are needed:    
* CoverWidth
* CoverHeight
* CoverX
* CoverY
Or simply copy the file from the sample theme and edit it to your needs.

A little suggestion:
As you can see, this fits very nicely with the Tenuitas Lockscreen 
made by iAndrew.
