Upgrade!: First things first, you're going to want to update to the 3.70 PSP Firmware. Just go all the way to the left in that XMB menu and hit "Network Update." (Tip: Make sure your PSP is able to connect to the internet, otherwise this will go poorly.) Follow the instructions to update your firmware.
To the net!: Now, go to this site. Next, get totally scared because it's all in Japanese!
"Ahhh!"
OK, you need to chill out. This is going to be fine. Just scroll down, there's just one thing we need from here. We need to click one gray button, scroll down until you see it.
Connected!: You're going to want to browse your memory card and inside your "PSP" directory, create another directory called "THEME." Now, put the file you saved (classypink.ptf) into that directory.
Set it and forget it!: Finally, go to "Theme Setting" under the "Settings" tab of the XMB. Now, choose "Theme". You'll see "Cookies" there, that's a theme that turns everything into cookies (as you may have guessed). You should also see a picture of your memory card with a classy pink orb next to it. Select it and apply it! You can now delete classypink.ptf from your card.
All done!: Finally, you did it! Enjoy your new theme! ... Oh! We almost forgot the most important step! Don't forget to realize that "cookies" and "classypink" are both really ugly and that you should change back to your original theme.

"Eureka!"

Don't upgrade if you wants to keep your homebrewz

Wait until the hacked firmware comes out, and then you'll be able to do this, plus run homebrew.

o and don't anyone try to talk to me about homebrew either. ive walked on both sides and homebrew really didnt have anything to offer me. dont really wanna pirate games since "I get money, money I got" and all the old games i loved so much in my childhood really arent as fun as i remembered them. i found a couple useful programs (file assistant was a very good program) but nothing to warrant me keeping my custom firmware. sorry if i upset neone lol.

I update each time and buy my games. No reason not to.

Aside from voiding your warranty you mean? Yeah, no reason at all.
Hopefully someone'll figure out how to roll your own before long!

I hope more people understand this

lol ds games are just as easily downloaded as psp games and just as easy to run as running isos on psp and cfw has been around for awhile and the games on the psp just keep getting better kinda like the nds and the mod cartridge for it ;)
I like that sony is watching what the home brew scene is doing and adding the features that the homebrew devs are creating for the homebrew users. Now if they could just add a cbr reader. ( yah right)

I just need to buy a PSP Slim and upgrade it. :( I want the Daxter pack!
Sony may be slow, but they listen and eventually they'll find a way to have custom games on the PSP without any pirated ROMs or EBOOTS playable. If the hackers would just cut them some slack and stop putting sony down all the time and learn some patience. Nothing good in life is instantaneous, even childbirth takes at least 9 months.

Homebrews good and all, but I don't want to risk bricking you know?
Plus, pirated games hurt the industry.
