im assuming you could use the sideloading method that doesnt require rooting but i dont know anything about it since the first thing i did on my phone was root it. heres a link to the wallpapers:

Pinetrees, though it's nothing special to you, it's amazing to me. I purchased this phone due to my eyesight problems. Your setup is what I need to complete my visualization issues.Nothing special
Sorry for this but could you tell me the different apps you have here and how you installed them.
Much thanks, Tomween1

That is LauncherPro using the Froyo dock. The weather widget is Fancy Widget, which you can download by scanning this QR code with a barcode scanner on your phone:

OK so admittedly I'm still an idiot! I looked at the free barcode scanners, but I'm miffed, how do I download them? There is no, straight up, DOWNLOAD showing on any of them!
Also is Froyo hard to install and do I need it to add these items?
Thanks again, bewildered
OK, think I have my device laid out the way that is most functional for me... I use four home screens (entertainment, home, calendar, social) and am using QuickDesk as an overlay to get to folders, see battery info, and access power control. Overall this works real well for me personally. I am using ADW.launcher with the the Droid X theme.

It's like that off and on. Dennis over at anddoes.com promises a new version soon.

Howdy!
That's Launcher Pro. You either double-tap the Home button or "pinch" the screen (like how you zoom an image) and all your home/desktop screens display, then you can select the one you want. Pretty nice way to switch between screens vs. scrolling. I like the idea of having each Home screen fine tuned to a specific function like travel, social networks, general home, etc.

Use a site like appbrain. You can install the apps straight from there. Here is a barcode scanner: Barcode Scanner - Android app on AppBrain
You can also login and create app lists (apps you want to install). Its a very handy and organized way to keep a list of your apps.

Incredible weather app/widget. Tons of options, GPS or manual, seems to be totally up-to-date with weather data, backgrounds, themes, great find!
I realize my colors were funky too and I saw there was an option to 'invert red/blue' which fixed me up.
Here's my weather now:

ill play.
What I cant figure out is how some with LauncherPro have the gray gmail icon. I want that. My red labels icon stands out like a sore thumb
edit: nevermind, found the gray icon

When you hold down on the icon and change it, it will popup with use original icon or launcherpro icons. Choose launcher pro icons and choose the mail one. Or whatever matches what you are putting there. You may have to change it and change it back to choose the icon again. Hope this helps

Okay, how do you get the Camera icon up there?

In the notification bar? Its a root thing. Its called Drocap2 in the market, and it allows you to take screenshots of the device, from the device rather than the sdk.
