    Question new to roms

    hi i need some help with installing a new fresh look my droid X is getting boring to look at.
    i downloaded an app from the market called: Rom Toolbox by Jrummy
    there is a spot to download & install roms but i just get Error:404 so i gave up.
    i would like to install a nice cool rom.... any advice where to go and how to do it would be great.
    i have ROOT Access.
    apps are:
    Android Overclock
    Bloat Freezer
    Droid 2 Boot Strap
    Rom Manager
    Rom Toolbox (not working right?)

    Thank you for taking the time to read thread and help.

    give it a couple more minutes, the first boot up takes a little bit if it goes more than well...7 or 8 minutes, probably have to do a battery pull and clear cache and data

    Edit: If your not sure how to wipe data/cache, click the link in Cobra's sig, "how to ..android recovery"
