Don't worry, FolderOrganiser can use icon packs just like Open Home and Bettercut :)

What Ed is saying is you don't need Open Home or Better Cut if you have Folder Organizer, despite what the market says. In Folder Organizer you go to your label or app or whatever and select the icon option. It will then come up with a "Choose app" menu - Icon packs is the bottom icon and the icon pack you just installed will be there.
 
alright, most of the icon packs say i need those programs; so i guess i need to find packs that dont support those. got any suggestions?
 
I don't think you're listening - I don't have Better Cut or Open Home installed, but I just downloaded a pack to try it so I could tell you how to do it. Just to be clear the pack I downloaded said I needed them, but I don't have them, but Folder Organizer allows me to use them anyway.
 
Hi folks,

There are some really nice Home Screens in this thread. Here is my offering:

Just the one home screen for me.

* Snowstorm widget with milky skin (and my own background)
* Android agenda widget
* LauncherPro with my own own background
* Icons by UltraLinx (UltraLinx: SimpText by UltraLinx) which I stretched.
* Wallpaper can also be found at UltraLinx's blog.
 
okay so i downloaded some icon packs, ive made shortcuts in folderorganzierLITE; then i try to change the icon and select icon packs but only the 4 stock show up. how do i get my icon packs to be reconanized by folderorganizerLITE


EDIT: do i need the icons to be on my SD card?

I really dislike flat looking icons
Im always on the hunt for dynamic 3D glossy icons

not finished yet but still experimenting
I got power control widgets and photo frames and contacts on the other pages, not worth showing as they are the same as you've already seen others use

Im a long time user of StarDock ObjectDock so ive had these icons for quite some time. I just resized some of the icons that I wanted to use on my Android and uploaded them and used Desktop Visualizer to change each individual app icon.

All my icons are big-huge. So like I said, i resize them down to fit.

Heyy bro, what do you mean by flash :S ? im new to this forum and yeahh.. i rooted my HTC Desire but i dont get what you mean by flash

Whoa too many questions to remember, ok I'll try do my best.

FIRSTLY

This is not a ROM, yes it is a theme that was designed for the Evo 4G, which basically changed the whole notifications bar, keypad colors blah blah blah, I have not tried to flash any of those, as I do not have the guts to try flash a Evo theme onto a Desire.

LASTLY

What I have done though, which I know for a fact works..... is flash both the "Evolution" font and the transparent apps zip files with ROM Manager from the link below.

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/kou...n-cm6-rc3.html

For those who are interested in the clock/weather/last call widgets/smooth calender widgets setup.....

The weather, last call and smooth calender transparents apps can be found on the link about. Also I am using Digital Clock widget which can be found in the market.

I've basically used 1x2 widget setups vertically, its not one whole widget if anyone was thinking

Wallpaper was modded myself, however you can get the original ones from the link below...

Actually apologies on my behalf I cannot find the wallpaper anywhere anymore


OH YEAH! And for those interested in the dock, i just saved it from this link below as an image, because the download link is dead!

[THEME] 8/30/2010 Manup456 The EVO Collection 2.2 UPDATED =) - xda-developers


EDIT:

I've uploaded the original and edited wallpapers here:

ImageShack Album - 5 images

PS: I cannot take credit for this amazing look, its basically the REVOlution theme from the EVO 4G kind of transcribed to my desire :D

Thanks a lot :)

Correct, it's the smaller Beautiful Widget. The skin for clock is "DroidDoesNaked" I think, and the weather skin is "Tick", they are the free downloads available from within the widget. I turned off the background.
