Is there any way to change the top bar?

The only option I have found is to hide it, not actually edit what is displayed in there.

Not that I know of, but as far as I've heard, the 2.1 update will make the top bar bigger. But that's just what I've been told, so I can't confirm it

Oh right it would be awesome if i could change the colour.

Really? I don't think it needs to be bigger.

You can change it, however you will need to root your phone first.

Thanks for the guide - downloading now - will post asap

I agree

 

[MrWomble]

Well here goes - probably not the best you'll ever see - but opinions are welcome

Ok so I think I finally have a homescreen worth keeping. The setup I had before was, well, bland and somewhat boring to me (NOT Olivia.. lol) So I tinkered a bit and came up with this new setup. I usually run it with the status bar and apps button hidden unless I need them.

 

[MrWomble]

how do you insert pics rather than attaching them ?

I upload my pics to another server (in my case a skydrive,) and just use the Insert Image button when composing a message.

Although, I think I should be splitting the images, since I appear to be warping the forum width. My apologies for that. I'll keep it under control in the future.

Upload your image to an image hosting website such as TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting

Then when your image is uploaded, copy the text from the IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards box, then past it into your post

Cheers for the reply's guys (or gals)

think i'll just stick with the attachments - although i fathom most people won't bother looking lol

Nonsense. This thread is about seeing what others have come up with in terms of home screen setups. To be honest, it was this thread that helped me discover some of the apps that have led me to the setup I'm enjoying now.

Don't count your contributions out yet.

This thread bought Beautiful Widgets and Jorte Calendar to my phone, for which I am forever grateful. So share your screens, cos we all stumble across different apps and its good to see what of the 50,000+ apps are good.

(Do have to say mine looks very girly in comparison to you boys and your mean and moody looks... maybe I'll have a change around this week if I get time!)

Assuming you are, in fact, a girl; Then having a girly looking phone is perfectly acceptable. As long as the phone itself isn't covered in stick on plastic jewels.. Honestly, that is the most atrocious way I can think to decorate a phone. :S

 

[MrWomble]

Well i've found something else for screen L1

App called Ebo Birthday - edits contacts birthdays and reminder widget

Ultra useful for a forgetful person like myself

Couldn't agree more, nope no stick on stuff for me. I love the clean smooth lines of my phone. My last theme was red roses (!) and red and black keyboard which is slightly less girly and one I may return to in future.

I may also have a look at the birthday app... brain like a sieve so always good to be reminded!

Where is that available?

How about sharing with a fellow "girl"

 

[sparkdroid]

Next 2 widgets (2nd & 3rd) are Extended Controls
Next Widget (4th) is SwitchPro

The red roses was just a wallpaper that I found and l then modded a keyboard on Gimpsta's site for the HTC_IME keyboard and changed the app drawer background and select highlight on ADW to various shades of red / transparency, changed the Beautiful Widgets theme so it blended better, set the Timescape theme to the dark version, my Jorte fitted in with both on the strawberry milk setting. Can't get round the blue SE menu's tho, not sure if you can as you are rooted?
