What do your X Screens look like?

Well, I just want y'all to know that this thread has cost me a TON of money! Thanks to everything I read on here (took me two days to get through the whole thing, downloading and testing apps as I went), I recently purchased Audio Manager Pro ($1.99), Beautiful Widgets ($1.87), Folder Organizer ($1.24), and Switch Pro ($0.99). I also have Weather Bug Elite ($1.99) and Weather and Toggle ($1.99) on the list.

I'm broke now after spending all that on apps to make my phone an absolute thing of beauty! LOL!! And if I figure out how to take screen shots (not rooted), I'll show you just how gorgeous they are!

Seriously, that has been one of the most educational and fun threads on the forum, and all for what, six bucks? Lucille and I thank you. Oh, and she got some nice free apps too, like Lookout, Zedge, Flikie, Jorte, and Smooth Calendar. Y'all have been the best at helping me (and others, I know) figure out not only which apps to use, but also how to use them. Looking forward to learning even more!

ETA - oooh, just saw and followed the link above, and I think I'll give that a try tomorrow, when I'm not so tired <yawn>. Which OS (XP, Vista or W7-32 bit) do you think would it work best on? I tend to default to XP on most stuff.

That is all it took for you to go broke? How did you get an X? Check out how much I have spent on my app brain list. Android owners need to start buying more apps so developers will make some more money and we will get the quality of apps that iPhone has from more big companies, mostly games (our emulators with wiiremote are AWESOME though).

To root, I went the EasyRoot path which was 99 cents. You can spend another couple bucks on LauncherPro Plus as well. Then there's WidgetLocker which is $2. LOL

Sorry, guess my being facetious in my previous post didn't come through the way I wanted it too. I was being silly about the prices of the apps - heavens, I spend more than that on lunch each day!

And I do agree with you about supporting the developers, I'll buy the paid app over the free version any time there is an option to do so.

Does it count that I spent $20 on Remote RDP Enterprise? I'm not afraid to go big!! LOL!!
 
After using the free version of Launcher Pro on my Droid X for the past few weeks I bought the full version last night but not really had time to play with it.
Aside from re-sizing widgets what else does the full version enable me to do? Are there Themes avilable for it that I can now use?
I have seen some of your amazing UI's and am eager to start messing with mine.
 
It annoys the crap out of me that folder organizer images need to be ever so slightly wider to fit the last column of icons....i had to stop using it.

Yep, it drives me nuts too. The weird thing is that on one of my screens i have two Folder Organizers set up just the same, and they end up sizing up differently along the right side. Hopefully they will fix it soon!

I started using Launch-X in the meantime. Being able to scroll through the organizer is a big plus, but I'm still trying to figure out if I can use custom icons with it or not.
