Post your Android Desktop

Not really my desktop, but as I recently flashed over to CM7 stable I decided to wipe my data/cache and start from scratch. In the process of building my UI from the ground up, I began with a custom lock screen, as shown below.

The bottom # after $su is the iPhone style unlock slider. The block under $sysinfo is my battery percentage, outside temps, date, and time. The APKs in the #rm com.ETC.apk are the day of the week and the weather conditions. The rest is just a wallpaper I made in photoshop.

Made with WidgetLocker and Minimalistic Text. Had a bit of an inspiration and just ran with it.

Creative but I don't know, it would take some getting use to for me. :)

LOL. If they weren't such great screens you would haven't studied them that hard :D
Well spotted and well done mini007, looks really nice :)


Oh I dunno..... I study every screen on here, except the ones that are just people. It's an irritating habit I have, but it helps with car bodywork ;)

Had my Galaxy S about a week now and this is what ive got so far.

I would like to know if it possible to get a weather widget that doesnt have a background showing, if there is one??

Home screen still has some work to go but not sure what to do yet!

widgets and apps:
beautiful weather, EmotiSun skin
make your clock widget
minimalistic text
Multipicture live wallpaper
I got the background from flikie wallpapers

I was just after someone to create a homescreen or 2 with it... I lost my creativity at that point

Ok, done playing with this one. One dissappointment. Can't figure out why the floor of the forest in middle screen is not red like the left and right screen :thinking:
But I did learn a new thing I can do with GIMP and discovered what my next Gimp function is that I want to learn..text to path .

Anyway here's what i ended up with for the week. Fancy Widget weather, transparent clock, jaidexl dock w/transparent icons and i made the white text icons with help from metrostation by yankoa-d312tty.
