How to customize the lockscreen on a Kindle Fire

~VIDEO~ Click here to go to video

not sure if there is another one that has this same method but this is what worked for me.
YOU MUST BE ROOTED TO DO THIS WITH MARKET ACCESS
step 1. Download No lock for the android market.
step 2. Using root explorer go to data/app and find no lock
step 3. long press it and move to system/app and paste it there.
step 4. reboot your kindle
step 5. Google magiclocker main and select the market link
step 6. it will ask you to sign in, do this, now it will say what program do you want to complete this action with and select android market.
step 7. it will say not compatable with this device, download it anyway.
step 8. go back to No lock and turn off the lock (you can test it out by putting your kindle to sleep).
step 9. In the android market search Magiclocker and download any theme you want.
step 10. once it is finished downloading tap on it in your notification bar.
step 11. it will ask if you want to install the theme tap yes.
step 12. Go to Magiclocker Main and apply the theme
step 13. Customize the theme however you want.
step 14. presto you got a custom lockscreen

This also works with Golocker, however i found Golocker to be a little laggy.
