Thanks. I photoshopped them from free stock outlines and a few icon sets listed xda - I wanted flowers for my puggy's screen.
Flowers and bugs outlines:
Magic Marker Icons Natural Wonders ~ Icons Etc.
App outlines I pulled from these two designers:
[ICONS] MetroStation Icon Pack - xda-developers
[ICONS] MetroDROID Icon Pack - xda-developers

Let me know if you want me to just upload the ones I made for you to use.

It has been YEARS since I have owned an Android. I have been an Apple iOS chick for a while...but the Galaxy S3 caught my eye, so i am giving Android another try. :)
Is there anywhere I can read tutorials of any sort to create homescreens such as this...the puggy screens are adorable and I see that things were photoshopped and so forth.
I need tutorials for DUMMIES, seriously, seeing as I have not used an Android in a long time.
Could any of you throw some tutorial vid links or something at me?
Much Appreciated!!

Home Screen:

When you touch on one of the titles on the home screen, a customized window opens up.

This one is set up so the apps in each tray scrolls right or left.

For this tray, on the left, my recent text messages will show up which scrolls down, as well as the recent calls. Also I have it set up to show Animated Widget when "Phone" is selected.

Sweeter Home 2 is by far the best launcher out there. Extremely customizable. I almost never scroll off my home screen, and there are still 4 more screens to be customized.

SweeterHome - Start - sweeterhome.com

When you download sweeterhome onto your phone, click on your menu button on your phone and go to Themes. There are hundred of diffrent ones there. This one is called RightSlide 2.

Running GoLauncher EX on an AT&T Avail (ZTE Z990) with a Nexus wallpaper and ICS themed notification bar (the wallpaper and note bar are not my work, I'm still figuring that out).

Don't ask why the the pics are so pale... I have no idea, and the lines are another drocap quirk. Also, under the drocap toast message on the home screen is the Goswitch widget.
