XenonHD
All text is Minimalistic Text (each widget will open a different app), icons are Glaskart Icons. Some open apps, others open folders. All are categorized according to my liking. This is the main screen. Left screen is contacts and right screen is calendar.

Felt like a Star Wars mood after George Lucas sold to Disney.

EDIT
Ugh, just realized that I need to change the color of my softkey buttons. Will be changed to white.

How do you customize your fonts? Do you just download a font and put it in a folder?

You can use ROM Toolbox to change your font.

@Frenchy714, I'm loving the clock widget! I need to spend more time playing with UCCW because it's pretty powerful in terms of what you can do. The ROM Toolbox looks cool, but what about apps that I already paid for, like Titanium Backup? What does it mean when it combines a bunch of apps into one? Does it combine actual apps or just functionality?

Yeah I love Uccw too, it's pretty dynamic! As for ROM Toolbox, I literally use it just to change my font and as an "Ad Blocker". I still use tibu (Titanium Backup) and other third party apps to do things that Rtb (ROM Toolbox) can do. Whatever you're most comfortable using IMO. Rtb Lite is pretty robust as is, and does everything I need it to do, w/o having to upgrade to Rtb Pro.

Not sure what happened, but after downloading ROM Toolbox, adding a custom font, and using the Glasklart theme, my battery life plummeted. It said that most of my usage was coming from Android Media Process and SD Card. When it used to say that a media process was the culprit, I would uninstall Spotify and all would be fine. Now it isn't. I deleted the Glasklart Theme and now it's all good. Anyone else notice that using a theme for a launcher affects battery life?

Always love your screens they are simply the best on this site!

Any chance you can resize and old wall of yours for my phone?

Thanks!

P.S. How do you setup your softkeys? Are they flashable zips or what?


Thank you very much for the compliment. :)

Most of the wallpapers I use have already been resized for the Galaxy Nexus. I have a collection (most I haven't used), that you can find here. However in some cases, I will have the wallpaper resized for a non-scrolling single page. This is usually because the original does scale properly.

As for the softkeys, these are changeable via an option in the AOKP rom. I just have to upload the image to my phone and replace the softkey. It's much easier than making a flashable zip. :)

I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, feel free to send me a PM.
