Post Your Home Screen Captures

I like. :) It looks like classy lemon water ice (that would be "Italian ice" for those who don't speak Philly).




Meanwhile, only since I haven't posted one in forever, here's something for everyone who can't sleep and needs something boring to look at:

And yes, the crossword app *is* important enough to be on the main dock.

this is very unique. i like it. : )

Thanks, but why is it that the ones I think are so boring are the ones that other people like the most. :thinking: I must be the weird one...oh, wait, that's already been established.

Anyway, If you get a replacement launcher, you can make your own goofy or not-goofy text icons easily with this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.redphx.simpletext

lol i go through the same thing. you might think its ugly, but somebody out there might love and want to try it out, like me. thanks for the link anyway. im about to try the app out right now.

i want mine to look a little similar to this. im clueless though. :thinking:
ss-480-2-6
any suggestions?


Looks like simple desktops for the wallpaper, Minimalistic text for the clock, simple text icons for the dock icons-you need go launcher ex or similar to get 5 dock icons. Not sure about the dock itself, or the app drawer icon in the middle tho.

Woah, best compliment on my homescreen ever-thanks! And boy, you're fast with the comments! I was just getting ready to edit with what I used, i just had to make sure the pix worked first.
Anyway here we go:
ADW Ex launcher
Minimalistic Text for the top banners w/ Arista light 2.0 font
Simiclock w/ weather and battery
The categories down the side of the homescreen are folder links for the app Folder Organizer, with icons made with the Simple Text Icon app (Arista light font again)
The facebook and schedule widgets are a new app I just found-Android Pro Widgets. I also have Colorize widgets,but I really like APW and I believe it's a cheaper app. The rss reader widget is called Minimal Reader and the weather is Beautiful Widgets.
Edit: forgot to add- dock icons are from the ADW Elegant theme

coming from launcherpro plus i can say i like the animations of the calendar widget and the chat mode interface of the messaging widget... the facebook widget i'm not a fan of how you need to expand the posts to read them but i like that it shows the number of comments and likes and how it lets you upload a photo from the widget

also go weather is quite nice... i do like the look of the default widget skin and the animations in the app are nice

all that said i think i'll stick with LPP and fancy widgets

Great Job! I was just thinking about how I would re-organize my screen and here you come with practically exactly what I wanted but couldn't think of how to put together.

I love how you Used Folder Organizer to give you the minimalist look yet still be highly functional. (I was using droid icons for my FO and was never really happy with them)

Plus using Minimalist Text to highlight the organization of each page is probably something I'll be using to satisfy my slight OCD urges.

Once again, great job.
