Post your Homescreens

I really like the ADW Themes called DarkEdge. They have a bunch of different colors (Gold, Orange, Green, Blue, Red, Pink, etc) and are free in the market. And as I'm sure you know by know, ADW themes and icon packs work with Nova so you're golden. Enjoy!

do you have to change the icon for each shortcut individually or can you just have it apply all of the ADW icons from a icon pack?

I've never understood why people add clock widgets to the homescreen, there is a clock in the top right always visible on the home screen.

It just seems like a waste of cycles to me.

the number one reason i have one is for easy access to the clock app. i use it quite frequently and would rather have a functional widget than a static icon on my desktop. the other reason is that it just looks good... although that may be a matter of opinion. :p

Using my own custom key color, and minimalist text clock. And using invisible icons for the dock apps.

On ADW Launcher so I can hide the notification bar.

I have a bunch of widgets and apps on the screens on either side. I like my initial homescreen to be as minimalistic as possible.



Ehh, looks a little cluttered to me.............

where is a good place to get high quality wallpapers. i been looking on the market but nothing really strikes me

Zedge app is good.

I personally like Interfacelift and Deviant Art. Typically you want to download the 1600 x 1200 versions from interface & deviant art as this is the most readily available size that partially fits the GN (GN is 1440 x 1280). I visit those sites on my PC, download to a folder I've named GN wallpapers, and when done connect my phone and transfer over the folder.

This Wallpapers app is really cool.

Best Wallpapers for Android - Get the best wallpaper

That work?

Sorry, nope. I need the image to make the changes....I searched high and low for it but my google-fu isn't up to par apparently...that being said, if you find an image you like but it's the wrong color it isn't hard at all to change the hue to the cyan that ICS uses. I'll put a standing offer out: If you find an image with the wrong color, I'll change it asap. You may need to PM me though after Jan 1st. I'll be out of country for 10 days and I forget to check threads if I haven't visited the forum in a few days.

If you want to try your hand at it, I like paint.net. It's free and it's the closest thing to photoshop I've found. All you do is import your image,then go to Adjustments->hue and saturation. Play with the sliders for hue first then make slight adjustments to saturation and you're done!

Anything for a fellow cummins guy;)

eta: there's TONS of wallpapers if you do an image search in google for wallpaper and add in something like cyan or honeycomb. "wallpaper orange"
