This appears to be one of the default Launcher Pro docks.

In Launcher Pro press > Menu > Preferences > Appearance Settings > Dock Background > "Glass"

Hope I am correct. This was from the top of my head (cant test as I use a dock that's no longer on my phone to restore to)

However, here are some alternatives and I hope this helps !

how did you do that it looks amazing! ive been trying to make my main screen look like that for ages but have had no luck, do you need a photo editing software or a special app?

Exactly - I owe it all to Paul M. Zahorosky of JerseyBoy Design, the only reason my low end phone looks kind of cool

Here's my LG GT540:

The 2 blue toggle widgets are from Rounded Labs, the icons are from Android 2.2, dock is simpledock. I only have 3 screens, the other 2 contain the Calendar and People widgets from Launcher Pro.

Does anyone know if there are wifi and sound toggle widgets like the ones from Rounded Labs but in black and white, so they fit the clock?

Well, I don't know of any like Rounded Labs in black&white, but I reskinned some CurveFish widgets that I think would fit with the style of your clock:

Plain White Silence & Wi-Fi Widgets

I can't test them on a lower resolution device, so let me know if they work.

Hope this helps!

thats a great tutorial and im sure you put a lot of time into it, but is there any other way of making the icons without using photoshop? actually, this is he wrong subject in the wrong thread and a silly question on top of all that so im sorry for wasting your time :/

Wow, thanks for your help! They work just fine but look a little jagged on my phones 320 x 480 screen: bayimg - image: screenshot.png - free uncensored image hosting

But still looks better than before I think

There are many ways to create icons without using Photoshop. Decent image editing software will produce the best results. It also makes it easier to add the text labels. GIMP is a good, free image editing software that works a lot like Photoshop. I have a brief tutorial on how to make the icons using GIMP here: Image Resizing Using GIMP. There are also templates with the text already added in the "Android7 Theme" thread (see link below).

Another way to make the icons is to just resize any image to the correct pixel dimensions. Using any basic image editor that can crop images works fine for this. You just probably won't be able to add the text to the icons this way.

Of course, you can always just use the icons that we all created already. Just go through the original thread: Android7 Theme. I tried to list links to all of the icons in the first post.

Hope this helps.

I revised them with lower resolution images: Plain White Silence & Wi-Fi Widgets. Hopefully, they will look better.

These are great: Thanks!
(I really like your "MyIcons" ~ would it be alright to ask for several more? I was thinking: Shazam, Gmail, Nav, Map, Pics, Video, YouTube, Music, Contacts.) Thanks in advance!!!

Changed it around a bit...

Thanks by the way to Lekky for the dock icons.

Really like this, it's eerie in a subtle way.

Thank you Gmail is already in the folder. Sure thing. Will upload tonite. Now understand, this font is quite large so the more letters to a word the more unreadable it becomes. So either I will have to abbreviate some words (ie Shazam - Zam, YouTube - UTube, Contacts - something like Tacts or Peepz or Fav or Folks or something) bc if not, u wont be able to read it.


***Update*** 12 new icons uploaded. Lemme know if they work for you
