Click to expand...

the slide screen is an application called widgetlocker you can download from market and customize it the way you want.....others i use are beautiful widgets and pure messaging widget

hope im understanding what you want to do
 
I finally got the screen capture thing to work....what a pain. (at least for me)

I would like to say thank you to all who are kind enough to endure all the newbie questions and comments. I could not have figured all this out without you.....

Here is what I am almost finalized with. Still looking for the perfect font.

Wallpaper is a modified deviantart photo.
Everything else is common enough stuff.

Patience is what it takes, a little time (late at nite), but I have posted some detail with all images if you want to recreate :D
You've got some days left at any rate to be fashionable in time :)

I don't like copying other people's looks though. I want to try and find something "unique", but Like I said, I just don't have the patience. >.<
 
I've always wanted to try the Dreamlyfe docks, but the fact that resizing from an HDPI device to an MDPI device is probably quite a pain has kept me from doing it.
Now I might be wrong of course, it sounds like it would be fairly "annoying" to do though, at least to get it perfect.

I'm afraid I'm a little behind on my terms, could you explain to me the difference between HDPI as opposed to MDPI? I'm assuming it has something to do with resolution/pixel density? It would be interesting trying to accommodate both devices.

P.S You could always grab a demo version (comes with everything you need to achieve the look in the screenshot (excluding the widget & wallpaper), and give it a test :)

Quick update to show the new icons and dock that I made to go along with my new system font. They are similar to the MmnlText Icons that were made by UltraLinx, just in the Neutraface font. I also made a smaller dock as I felt the one I was using was not only too dark, but had too much wasted space.

The following were what I was using before, same layout, different background:

Anyone know if there are any free icons similar to the ones here on the second to the last image?

That's pretty much it. HDPI is basically a "high def" screen, where MDPI is only "medium def". (Found my answer here: http://androidforums.com/milestone-...5-difference-between-hdpi-mdpi-tiny-mdpi.html)
I did look at the demo version, then I read the read-me part about resizing and basically gave up after that. <.<
If you do decide to attempt at making a version for MDPI, I'd be willing to test it for you. (No I'm not trying to get it for free, I would only need the dock anyway. Just throwing that out there so there isn't any confusion. >.>)
 
hey guys has anyone here ever had a problem downloading widget locker i got it today and it keep opening my web browser and sending me to a video add for the Honda oddesy

That's perfect. if you could PM me a screen shot of your device (is it a galaxy tab?) that would be great. I just need a general idea of the screen size and scaling up my work without any loss in quality wouldn't be a problem at all. Right now they max out (and look best) at EVO/Droid X screen size & resolution...
 
Here's what I'm currently running.
