First off thanks Cudda. A bunch of people were asking about that.
do you use? and if so does it kill the battery? I wonder if it runs when the phone screen is off?

Yes, I've been using it for a long time. Right now I have it set so it changes only when I press the widget. I did however have it set for a while to change every 5 seconds and I honestly didn't notice a difference in battery life. Try it yourself!

Still in a constant state of fussing with stuff 
Wall is from Google, just search "diamond plate."
The clock and battery is minimalist text.
The weather is WeatherBug Elite.
The icons someone posted here I think, "Black Pearl."

Probably the nicest one I've seen. Very minimal and clean. Cleaner than mine so....
Thanks for the motivation, it was time for a change.

can you post the widgets/wallpapers necessary to make this? And do the different icons on the bottom require root? thanks!

the "buttons" on the bottom do not require root, however removing the nav bar that has the back, home and recent apps button does.

Wallpaper I found and just changed the X to blue, had some fun with cropping it to get the NEXUS text where i wanted it.
The App Drawer X was posted by another member a few pages back in this thread.
Widgets: Minimalistic Text, Caynax Melody Battery, BobclockD3, Beautiful Widgets Weather and the Icons for the dock are Metro Station Icon Pack.
If you install nova launcher you can do everything without root EXCEPT remove the soft keys, With root you can install LMT pie controls and remove the soft keys and get that glorious full screen going.

Hey thanks a lot man. Do you by any chance have a high res version of the wallpaper though?

Sorry I don't, the original wallpaper IA from the zedge application on the market, you could get it from there and edit it your self

Here's my "WishinItWas" inspired homescreen..... though it literally changes several times a day at this point.
My biggest gripe with all these apps is the inconsistency with which they implement color selection. Some allow hex, some RGB, some sliders, some just a set selection. I wish they'd all allow direct hex or RGB input. Limited palette gets an immediate delete from me, sliders frustrate the hell out of me when I am trying to match colors. The Bob clock is killing me with the sliders right now.
Oh, and apps where you can't modify a widget's settings without deleting it and creating a new one.... you suck too!
