Thanks for this thread. I've had a good time learning how to capture screenies of my phone almost as much as I like messing with it. Had to tweak a batch file to help it find my Java stuff on Windows 7, but I got it done. Like everyone else, these screens will always be changing. Here's my baby as of today.
#1: HTC Camera, HTC Calendar, Dolphin Browser HD, Handcent
#2: HTC Camera, HTC Camcorder, HTC Photo Gallery, Camera Illusions,
Funny Cams, FxCamera, PhotoFunia, Camera 360,
PicSay, PRO Paint, Retro Camera, Vignette Demo
#4: Mabilo Ringtones, Tone Picker, Facebook (for HTC Sense?), AppBrain,
Mobisle Notes, HTC/Google Navigation, Better Alarm Clock, Android Market
Laputa Book Reader, LockMe Widget, HTC Search People, Voice Recorder (Tokashiki)
#5: Gauge Battery Widget, DroidStats Widget, TaskPanel X Widget, Android Power Control Widget
Smart Volume Free runs up top. It locks all volume controls!
All apps and widgets on my phone are free and were downloaded from the Market (except Mabilo Ringtones) or came with the device.
Lots more stuff on my Appbrain List: ohmyhead's Apps on the phone
All shown apps and widgets are listed there. To get Mabilo Ringtones, you must get Mabilo Sounds from the Market, then follow instructions in that app to get the MUCH better Mabilo Ringtones app.
The two screens not shown large are the HTC Favorites widget (People) and the HTC Mail client pulling GMail.
Executive_method, what did you customize your phone with? And nice family. Most folks who covet Jager like that aren't able to keep families.

Where did you get that clock? I absoluetly love the glass look.
I got it from an individual the created the skin for beautiful widgets. He hasn't finished it yet (doesn't work well in landscape mode) but was generous enough to send me the file anyways. Not available anywhere else, sorry.

Sorry if this was answered - I must of overlooked it.
Here ya go, I just copied and pasted from where I posted it on the last page. Let me know if you need any help.
Just an update on the custom icons in the LauncherPro dock on a phone that is not rooted. You do not need Better Cut at all, if you just use the 2.1 Gallery apk Incredible to select the icon it will show up and work on the dock. Just long press on the dock; select "applications"; then select the app you want on the dock; press "custom icon" then "Gallery" (the 2.1 Gallery you just installed); then select your icon.
If your icons do not show up in the gallery you need to find them (I used Astro File Manager) and copy them to a spot where the Gallery will find them (a photo folder). Some icon packs are easier to find than others. I could not find one pack and had to do a backup (as suggested by Waynester) and then I was able to find the icons in the backup folder and then copied them to a photo folder, using Astro.

Is there a way to make the icons in the dock bigger in launcher pro? The pictures make it looks like everyones icons are way bigger then mine... Maybe its just an illusion..
Alright blue rocket's post inspired me! I took the iphone theme to the next level lol. I used folder organizer to change the icons. The launcher is launcher pro. I photoshopped the dock onto the official iOS4 wallpaper and added the reflections to make the glass look more glass-like. The keyboard is Smart Keyboard Pro and the lock screen is lock bot free.

This stuff is cool. I have no idea how to root phones and all of this extra stuff. Would love to learn so my phone can be this slick. I work with what HTC gives me but I need more. Lol. I love this phone and want my layout to be one of the best...

I dont think this phone is even rooted? If it is I am missing something, but you can make a non rooted phone look exactly like this. srh_pres correct me if I am wrong please.

Nope, you are right. I think most of us are using Launcher Pro or ADW Launcher, then download some new icons, add a few widgets and you've got it.
The program that does the Cube/Barrell is called DXtop, the only time there is lag is when I have a live background...but then again I dont have sense on the device.

you are correct - not rooted yet. Using ADW launcher in the pics above and Bettercut to mod the icons.

Since we do not pay for beautiful widgets skins, you should start embracing the idea of OPENNESS that is so vital to the android community and provide the many people who've asked you about this skin with a link or means to download it. Just sayin!

lgldrgdlr was kind enough to beta test the HolyGlass skin for me. It doesn't work in landscape mode and I don't want to release work that isn't done. Last time I released work that I did early, a user took my work and posted pics of it around the forums bashing it, even tho I clearly explain at my download link of the issues it was having. Really Gay.
I will try and finish up the skin as soon as I can. I broke my arm playing basketball, and I believe I still got around 3 to 4 weeks i'll be in this cast. So I don't have use of my right hand. I'll get it out to the community when its done.

Thanks for taking the time to explain, fast healing to ya.
*yeah me being short , i know how rough combat/full contact basketball can be
gagz135, I agree completely with your openness ideas and the Android community, but when asked not to distribute an item that you're testing, you don't do it. It's called integrity. I could have been more clear in my earlier post, for that I apologize.
For those looking for a home replacement that has the cubing effect and themes, I highly recommend GDE or Open Home over DXtop.
I personally have switched over to launcherpro, but only because it's more lightweight and I use a lot of widgets. Once Froyo hits, I may switch back to GDE. We'll see.
Well, I can't take the constant crashing from LauncherPro or ADW any longer, so I've switched back to Sense. I've tried everything I can to make things stable, but being this phone is used for business purposes I just can't deal with it any longer. Honestly, after switching back I'm not hating Sense much at all. Just wish the launcher could be customized, but I can deal with it. I've been using Executive Assistant for a few days now and really, it's maybe my favorite app at this time. This layout is far from exciting, but it's productive and useful.
ThickButtons Keyboard : I dont txt that much , eyes not so good, so this is a great match for me. I have swype, but this matches my needs and skills better.

this might sound stupid but does anybody know on the android power widget. what the 4th icon is?
i know its wifi, bluetooth, gps, ?, and brightness.
can you please post up a copy of that background? It's absolutely gorgeous!
Did you learn how to make all those changes by just tinkering around or is there a tutorial somewhere online?
Also, how did you get those 6 icons down at the bottom? I've been playing with ADW Launcher but I can't seem to figure out how to get those 6 icons down there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I currently use Launcher Pro Beta on my INC but downloaded adw today and willin to try and make my dock look shadowed etc like this... Please help me out if you can tyvm!!
