Something here which may cause troubles is the 'So you tar everything under the "home" subdirectory' part.  This will add a /home/ directory to the archive structure, which is unnecessary and may cause problems.
Have a look at this thread:
http://damnsmalllinux.org/cgi-bin....16;t=95

Ke4nt1 explains in detail how to properly construct an extension,  The same method is used with a style.tar.gz.

I was at the kb when they came in..

I removed all the directories, fixed the permissions,
rebuilt the .tar.gz's, and made new md5sums.

Nice backgrounds....  

Send me your .info files when you get a minute..
The repository web pages need them in a particular format..
See other .info files in the repository for examples..
