Nice homescreen! :thumbup: I've kind of got a similar, minimal/elegant going on, but I'm using GO Launcher EX, and for these reasons:

Has a task killer integrated into the app drawer, so it's more unified, no need to have a separate task kill app.

The homescreen menu is themed and has 3 tabs.

Compared to ADW, you can switch the order of your dock buttons freely.

Plus they have more cutesy Japanese themes which I like. Compared to ADW, I much prefer GO.

Can you tell me above Pro Launcher?

My latest
(Background is live and changes with the time of day)

Parts used:
Poppy Field (Live wallpaper)
Fancy Widgets (weather)
Digi Clock (clock)
Launcher Pro w/miui and icon pack as well as other bits and parts I have gathered over time
Widget locker (sense style lock screen)

That's just beautiful, LeslieAnn!

This is just a minor suggestion, use it only if helpful. I'm pretty OCD about my minimalism. I like it that way. I hide my Camera app, since the OV has a dedicated camera button. Instead of using the app, I'll launch it from the button.

My own theme and a photograph I took in Maine as my background with my OV.

That's awesome. The apps kind of look like leaves. Good job.

*Edit* are you using your stock launcher?

News for theme fans such as myself:
I've been talking to Lockheed, developer of Jaku Icons, and he seemed pleased that I've asked him if I could release a .mtz with his icons in before I actually did. This is the full conversation, for people that are interested in it as I am, lol.

I'm not positive how many requests you've gotten from this before, but I'm wanting to throw some of your icons in a .mtz. I did not download the theme and take the icons nor have I sent out any of your icons, but I'm only wanting to use this for personal use until you reply with your answer.

Awesome job with the icons, btw. Sorry, had to get that in there

I'm getting my icons from here: Jaku Community Icons. In case your wondering.

If I could, that would be great. If I can't then so be it. But have a good day, and keep on doing what you're doing!

Thanks man. With so many douchebags just taking and not caring about me (and the others that contributed to the theme), it's really cool to see honest and decent people ask first.

For the official Jaku icons, they are only available for iOS and at this time, I have to plans on shipping them for Android. So if you find them (I'm sure some douchebag has pirated the theme and made it available on line), you can't release that stuff. You can use it for personal use (I know you wouldn't have paid for it, but whatever, I'm not gonna be a *****), but not for public consumption.

As for the icons you got from that specific site, you'd have to talk to the independent artists so see if they are cool with it. Contact Bryan (the site op) and see if you can work something out. He did a ton of them and is pretty proud of his work, so he does protect it. I don't think he'd have any problems if you used them for personal use, but may be a little put off if you released it. His concern is that it'll get chopped up and all credit will be lost.

Anyway, thanks for asking and thanks for the support. If I had the means, I would port it to Android as tons have requested it, but at this time, it's a lot of work for me.

Best,

Lok

I'm pretty excited.

Well launcher pro is is my favorite its not bloated. But you cant apply themes(but you can apply icon packs). Launcher pro dock is also very themable though
I have seen Launcher pro themed to look like sense 2.1, ics, gb, froyo, and as you can see Sense 4, and lots more. You dont have as many features as the other launchers but its very smooth. The original Launcher Pro can be found on the market.
Hope this could help

I actually shrank the screens down so it's less obvious, but I don't actually use an OV, I use an Evo 4g, which doesn't have a camera button, otherwise, yeah, I would remove it. I sometimes miss that button, even though I only ever used it to start the camera, using it for the camera itself always made my pictures blurry.

Well when I made icons I started with doing the icons that I already had on my homescreen. But if you want to, just look through the play store for the most popular ones.

I would like to see a system icon for the Show/Hide status bar button. Maybe something that is a little sleek and elegant. Custom launchers provide them as System shortcuts, but since they aren't standard they are all usually fat and ugly looking. I know I'm a real nerd for asking this, but atm that is one of the 3 icons I have in my dock. I use it frequently.

Just a suggestion.

I've done most already on my homescreen, but thats a good idea looking through the play store. I've also done a few alts, such as one that looks like a pack of 5 gum I really like that one

Awesome! Thanks!



My OV configuration atm. I am using GO Launcher and GO Weather widget. My 3 dock buttons are Phone, Show/Hide status bar, and Quick Settings.

I configured my launcher so: swipe up opens the homescreen menu. This gives me access to 3 tabs, including System settings. Swipe down opens the App drawer. Notice there is a built-in task manager.

That gives me a lot of flexibility, but I still haven't gotten it just perfect unfortunately. Still experimenting.

Your welcome! And nice screens. That default Go Launcher dock is sleek. Better then a lot if custom docks I've seen.

I went back to MIUI, I missed it a lot so I decided to remove half of my apps to use it especially now that themes are fully fixed lol. But here are my screens now.

 

[droidmyme]

That's cool. What is MIUI?
