Sick set up Argent and thanks for posting the weather icon's, but how exactly are you able to incorporate them into beautiful widgets??? They do change depending on the weather correct?

For us NOOB's, can you please explain how to do this

Select it under Installed Skins and hit Apply and then Save & Apply :)

I'm just getting into Launcherpro myself. I like being able to customize my pages, but I'm wondering where everybody is getting their custom docks and icons from...

Just from looking around online. If you go to LauncherPro.com there is a thread in the forums devoted to icons and another devoted to custom dock backgrounds. That's where I found my dock background. Lots of nice stuff there.

There is actually an entire forum about theming launcherpro. Definitely worth reading.

You didn't lose them. They're just on the internal memory. You can move them in root explorer if you go to the root directory (the actual root not the directory called "root") then go to /emmc, and move them from there to your SDcard.

You may have to mount internal storage in order to do that. I don't recall. Just search the incredible development forum over at XDA for how to mount internal storage and you'll find the script.

Cool beans, thanks! I'm so new to rooting and all that jazz I wouldn't know where to begin.

I got the icons from the Rusty Metal dxtop theme: dxTop Theme: Rusty Metal - Android app on AppBrain

I had to manually pull the icons out of the theme's .apk file and save them to a folder on my SD Card. I believe you have to be rooted to access the file, though. Once I pulled the file I just use 7zip to extract the images. It's not too complicated.

The background was one I found on google images that I resized.

I actually use FolderOrganizer to assign the icons to different folders. I think you can do it with the free version, AppsOrganizer as well, but you can't put folders within folders using that, plus I love the app and wanted to donate to the developer so I bought the paid version.

Each one of those icons in the launcher dock opens up a folder with a list of apps inside it. Once you assign the apps and icons to the folders the way you want within FolderOrganizer, you use LauncherPro to assign FolderOrganizer Label shortcuts. It's pretty easy. You just long press on the icon in the dock, select shortcut, then select FolderOrganizer Label.

The wood shelf dock background I found on the LauncherPro forums and the BeautifulWidget skin is available for download from within the application.

I hope that helps. You can PM me if you have any other questions. Also, now that I think of it, those Rusty Metal icons are probably available on the XDA forums if you search hard enough. You'd be able to get them without rooting your phone if you get them there.

I looked thru the xda themes/icon thread , maybe I missed them or they could have been in specific phone thread. DL the rusty metal apk , tried astro, es and oi file explorers, nogo, then tried Root explorer file manager (which gives you extract option) :D success!
Well they extracted to sdcard/extracted and I can view them with asto viewer so Imma guessing I can move them to pics gallery so I use folder org

*no my Dinc is not rooted

what app are you running on this screen shot? I love it!

Hi :) thx!

Using Launcher Pro + gestures and hide notification bar

The clock is Micro Clock Widget

Weather is Weather Bug Elite and I used the medium sized widget, but re-sized it within Launcher Pro.

The battery widget in the blue orb is BattStatt

It just so happened when I got this wallpaper (from Zedge) that I could use the small sized battstatt widget and re-size it within LauncherPro and it fit perfect inside the orb lol.

The text icons on the dock are from deviant art (kobhens icons) and the phone icon is an icon pack I also found on deviant ---> HERE.

Thnks jay ;) I'm trying to stick with one layout for a while, but its so tough to :p
Click to expand...

I completely agree! I've already changed my lockscreen 3 times today. Not to mention, one day my wallpaper is carbon fiber with 12 icons and BW Home and the next day I have a very plain wallpaper, an analog clock and my dock!

I think I might need medical attention! :p
