What's the running app up in the corner?

Cool screen, btw...

Thanks. That's just a notification from my Weather and Toggle Widget add on telling me my app is outdated. I don't think it's being supported any more, because I can't find the clock and weather skins anywhere anymore. Which sucks, because they always had the coolest looking clocks.

A combination of things. My status bar is changed with Theme Chooser that came with PlayfulGod's CM7, my clock is changed with Beautiful Widgets, and my icons and dock are changed up with Launcher Pro.
Those aren't the exact build, widget, and launcher app you need to customize your phone, they're just examples of the types needed. You can even create your own icons.

Anyone hook me up with a good icon pack for LP? Every one Ive downloaded has been limited. Even downloaded one off the market that was suppose to be 500 icons and was 12mb and I STILL had stock Icons. And I only have like 25 icons on 3 home screens. So if anyone knows of a good icon pack it'd be appreciated

lol, give me the link to the one ou downloaded, but it should be a folder inside the zip that has all the icons, and just move it to your sdcard like you would do the wallpaper and than long press on a icon and change it, but it might be a flashable zip that will install everything for you depending on how they zip it.

Heres the 3 I downloaded. So far Ive put just the zip on my sd and tried to flash them and the flash aborted. I pulled the icons out and put them on my sd. And I just tried extracting the zip files and then put the icons on my SD. None of that worked. Now it did just cross my mind on those pages it does say " .ico for Windows .png for Linux .icns for Mac" I have Windows 7 so I did the windows one. Maybe I need to download the linux one maybe?


Edit- Nevermind! The windows linux mac thing threw me off. I did need the Linux one. I was thinking the download type for my computer not my phone Ahaha Thanks tho buddy.

yeah i was bout to try it with MM...

Changing icons in the dock.

1. simplies way is to use Launcher Pro, its for free at the market.
3. Install the launcher and make it as your standard
2. download the icons and copy/unzip them to your phones sdcard
4. long press on the dock icon an choose "change icon" then "custom icons"
5. done - have fun

Changing icons on the homescreens

1. download the icons
2. copy/unzip to your phones sdcard
3. install Desktop Visualizer, its for free at the market.
4. long press on the homescreen and choose the widget "Desktop-Visualizer". there u can make shortcuts and choose also the size
5. done - have fun

but also from the looks of it, it seems like thos are icons for the pc it self not the phone.

I got it figured out. I did need to download the Linux one. I would post a screen shot but it tells me the pic is too big then I resize it and it tells me the file size is too big.

Oooooo, I like.
And I really like a full screen with no notification bar, but I find I really need it.

That's why the swipe gestures are cool, you can see it just when you want to.

I did that for a bit but I found myself swiping the bar up and down all day. It just got too annoying, even though I liked my home screen better without it showing.

Sorry, but that's the last time I see something cool, and not ask what is it, because I'm dumb.
