It's an option in LauncherPro (based on the Nexus One app drawer I believe).

[Euphobia]

Updated my entire lay-out

Using LauncherPro

Middle:
Beautiful Widgets
Modded Suave HD icons on my bottem Dock

What's the weather widget underneath your clock?

Edit: Nevermind, didn't see Beautiful Widgets came with that.

Can't seem to find it.

Also does anyone know of a notepad widget? I've downloaded AK Notepad but it's not got a widget. What about a photo widget that you can swipe through? Had one on Sense.

Only got my home screen configured at the minute. Thanks to this thread for the help BTW. I will going back through it to help me with the other 6 screens!! lol.

Big thank you to whoever posted the wallpaper a page or two back.

Even bigger thank you to member timmmah.l who linked to this page: [THEME] REVOution for CM6 RC3 - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

This is where I got the new font, and the weather and the smooth calendar (transparent) versions.

The battery widget is BattStat and the clock is Tajm.

Also I am running LeeDroid 2.0a with this theme flashed Carbon EspressoMod ala BrightSilence v2.1(for official Froyo Sense based ROMs):

What is that agenda widget? It looks exactly like Blackberry's "Today" theme screen calendar. Also lol disney on ice, haven't seen one of those in years.

Pretty sure it's Android Agenda. It's very customizable, but the controls at the bottom give it away.

NP I guess?
We share these things so people can come up with ideas etc.
My wallpaper gave you an idea which came out quite good in my opinion!

Hi all

having been watching in the wings for a while and these are my screens.

No doubt when I get some free time I'll trawl through deviantART for a new wallpaper and share it with you lot. Feels dirty using someone else's idea as its central to your theme.

I want to make the move to launcher pro but I am liking the look of the theme I've applied to sense.

If I do move to launcher pro, do I need to remove all my widgets etc from sense to stop them using battery? Do I disable sense? Or just sent launcher pro to default?

Leedroid comes with 'launcher' built in. It's the one with the starwars style scrolling app drawer. Would it be ok to install launcher pro when I already have 2 launchers in the Rom?

It's probably best to - just save your current layout as a new scene (in case you want to come back to it), then change the current scene to Blank Slate (to get rid of all the widgets), then make Launcher Pro the default (the easiest way is with Home Switcher).

Quick question for launcher pro users, widgets only appear as an option on my phone when the app is installed to the phones memory rather than the SD card. Is this the same for everyone else?

To have apps installed on my SD card but still have the widget showing on screen, I'd have to use something like Folder Organizer??

Cheers

Isn't that the default behaviour? Because when you connect your phone to a PC anything on the SD card can't be read by the phone, which would make the widget unavailable, so I imagine this is by design.

Question 1: How do you change the buttons on the bottom of the homescreen?

Question 2: Where can I find replacements?

Question 3: How can I change icons of certain app and widgets?

Some really colourful screens here! I've been trying a few different layouts, all with LauncherPro, custom dock and Beautiful Widgets. This wallpaper is called Visualization from Zedge.

Here's another that would look good with the green TallMin dock icons (wallpaper is Android Army from Zedge)....

The same screen with New Wave wallpaper...

And a cool red theme using Sunset wallpaper...

 

[Dudditz]

Looks ace Ed, where did you get the custom dock? Does it require root?

I'm using a rooted 2.2 ROM (don't know if that matters) with the setting that all apps are installed on my SD card when downloaded.

I download say Smooth Calendar from the market, but LP won't recognize it as a widget only as an application. But if I move the app back to the phones memory the widget shows up in LP.

Using Sense on rooted ROMs I had all my apps installed to the SD card and widgets worked fine. Maybe it's a issue with Google's version of Apps2SD.

I've done a bit of research and it is down to LauncherPro, because they're on the card they aren't available when LauncherPro starts up, and therefore it doesn't allow them. So basically anything you want to use as a widget with LP will need to be on the phone.

No rooting required! I use LauncherPro to select a custom dock background. The dock backgrounds can be found HERE

This is true of all widgets, not just when using LauncherPro. Widgets need to run from phone memory so they won't work if you have them stored on SD card. Apps can be stored on SD because you open them only when needed; they don't run in the background so don't need to be in phone memory.

This one is the most beautiful in my opinion.
Those yellow fonts don't work with the other wallpapers.

A1- LauncherPro lets you change the dock icons and background.

A2- Icons available from the Android Market (search "Icons" and "Icon Pack") and dock backgrounds can be found HERE

A3- Use FolderOrganiser to change icons for apps, folders and shortcuts.

Search these forums for the above app names and you'll get pages of help and advice on how to use them.

I really dislike flat looking icons
Im always on the hunt for dynamic 3D glossy icons

not finished yet but still experimenting
I got power control widgets and photo frames and contacts on the other pages, not worth showing as they are the same as you've already seen others use
