Post Your Home Screen Captures

No problem :) I really enjoy it and am not a big fan of folders. I have a LOT of apps and it really helps being able to categorize them from one location. Adding an app to any category I want is as easy as a check mark.
I installed App Organizer and really like it. Now I'm only musing the Home screen and all other screens are empty. Really cool app, I just wish I could put a browser bookmark into one of the "folders".
 
Was looking at Launcher Pro, but was surprised by this:

This application has access to the following:

Services that cost you money:
directly call phone numbers
Your messages:

read Browser's history and bookmarks,
write Browser's history and bookmarks,
read calendar events

I realize some of the stuff it will need, but read gmail, read sms?

That's only so it can give you a notification of the # of unread emails & sms on the icon if you set it that way.
 
Can you run through what you had enabled/disabled, what apps you were running to achieve this? I'm guessing a underclocked CPU with data/wifi/sync disabled? But, knowing what all you're running would help to understand how you achieved such battery savings.
Who are you referring to?

Try Folder Organizer. It lets you put almost anything in a "folder" including browser bookmarks.

I'd hardly call it an achievement, more like a fluke. My phone isn't rooted, so no underclocking, and whatever I did that day isn't any different from what I do on days when my battery sucks- no battery apps (the ones I've tried since then either made no difference or made it worse), just wifi/gps/bluetooth disabled. Sometimes I disable data and sync, sometimes not. There's really no rhyme or reason to it, and I've pretty much given up trying to get the most out of my battery.

This is very nice looking. Which clock widget is this? I haven't been able to find one just like that. Thanks.

Looks like Make Your Own Clock Widget... you just design it how you want... insert the hours in numbers, on the right insert the minutes in numbers... under the hours drag the am/pm portion below the hour, and the short date portion under the minutes... then just add a separator in between the two sides.

I could be wrong though.
 
And one of these days, I will install Make Your Own again and conquer it!

Right now I'm enjoying mClock:

Now someone please else post a shot, because I'm even boring myself. :)
 
I'm currently using aospCM7 with ADW launcher and SwipePad. I keep a clean uncluttered home page, with quick easy access to most used icons in the hidden dock, and an extra hidden launcher using SwipePad.

Nothing like some of the sleek ones above me, but it's clean and does the job for me...

a new shell, SPB's Shell 3D app. What do you think of it? I don't have much of an opinion, just got my phone last week, and have been immersed in the forums. (BTW, I keep seeing the same names in quality posts)

It looks good and I have had it on my Nokia/Symbian before But, for $14.99 there is no way I would use it. It is just not worth the money in my opinion.
