Root Swype access with custom ROMs

Hi All,

This is my first time posting on here, as I have just rooted my EVO for the first time, so first I wanted to say thank you to all the people who've spent the time writing up the how to root guides. They were super easy, and I really appreciate the assistance!

Now onto my noobish question. I've flashed a couple of custom ROMs(mikG & synergy kingdom) to my phone over the last couple days, but ultimately went back to the default ROM, because neither of the custom ROMs had Swype installed, and since in just comes in the Sprint package, I don't know where I would be able to download it otherwise(as the swype beta has long since ended).
I've looked through the forums to no avail; does anyone have any suggestions or tips for this? I've become so used to swype that not having it is a deal-breaker for me.

Thanks!

check out these themed swype apk. they are awesome. just download and transfer it to the card. use a file manager like es file manager or root explorer to install it.
