I have Go Launcher and it seems to be the best in my opinion of the few I've tried. My only complaint is that it can be difficult to find Go Widget themes that match the Go Launcher themes and I'm not skilled enough to bother trying the theme makers they offer for download on their website.

I used go for the longest time I like the total customization of it but IMO kinda heavy on the ram. Now that I'm running cm 7 I'm using adw. It's smooth and light, and if you buy adw-ex (again imo) it's just as customizable as go. And there are many themes and icon packs for it as well
I completely agree with you man. I have tested out all the different launchers and ADW is definitely the choice for me. I was luckily able to purchase it recently when they did the 10 cent apps and I noticed it was available there.

The 10 cent apps was dope! I bought a few. My only complaint is that I got on the bandwagon too late and missed most of the good stuff that I wanted! They need to do it again! Soon!

I would also like to add that instead of just posting your screens you should tell us what launcher, icon set etc you're using. I'd like to ask everyone in this thread that question and I'm sure others would too... this way it'll save us time! :D

I used to like Go Launcher, but as soon as I switched to Cyanogenmod back in October, I fell in love with the "changebility" of ADW. My new home screen consists of the Sense HD icons for ADW from the market, and the clock is "Brushed Steel" from Beautiful Widgets, and the theme is Crystal for the theme changer. The lock screen is a work in progress.... I change mine up a bunch, but I might leave this one for a bit.

trenchkato I love that font you got on the lock screen. What is that? Plus you got the Boost Mobile at the top... How did you get that? Different rom? I'm using CT2.4 and the Boost Mobile writing is removed on that? Did you re-insert it somehow?

It is a font called Caviar Dreams... I got it out of Rom Toolbox Pro... as for the layout of the lockscreen it is a tweak found in the cm7 settings...

I'm just learning html so bare with me...the reason being I can't use upload paperclip because screenshot is too big I guess.

If you are running Windows 7 .
An easy way to post a smaller shot is to right click on the image you want to post . Select EDIT . Right above where it says CLIPBOARD , you will see a drop down tab , select it and bring your pointer down to the SAVE AS option . A menu to the right will pop up . Select the JPEG option and follow the prompts . This will re-size the images for you and allow you to post the smaller shots . Just upload the modified image and you're done .Simple and easy ! I hope this was what you were referring to when you said that you can't use the paperclip option . :D
