Screenshots of peoples Droid desktops?

I've been following this thread since the beginning but admit I probably haven't read the whole thing so I'm guessing this has been asked before.

There are cool screens from lots of people here but it seems like after nearly every post there are 5 replies saying "What is the zzz widget on screen X?". It'd sure be helpful if everybody could do what some of the people here have done: describe what's on your screens page by page. Thanks and keep posting 'em up!
 
Battery/Memory info on 4th screen = Mini Info Widget

Clock/Weather = New Beautiful Widget (the new design after they got a C&D from HTC for the flip clock design)

How do you get these icons? Been searching on the forums like forever, with no clear understanding on how?

Download an icon pack and either a) have a home replacement app (OpenHome) replace 'all' your icons with those in the pack or b) use an app like BetterCut to pick and choose icons individually that you want to replace.
 
From furthest left to furthest right screen (bottom).

What is the clock and weather widget? I see a lot of folks with it but cannot manage to find it.

Also, is there a good tutorial somewhere for the different home replacements (preferably Home++) where I can find all the little tricks and how to change icons and such. I want to customize but...uh...well...I can't figure it out (bad, Droidgirl, I know)

icon change is done with better cut


anyone know where i can get this wallpaper :(
 
OK.

The app to replace the Icons is "Better Cut"

In order to group them like so you need "App Organizer".

That way you can do games, twitter, tools, and w/e else you want,

The icons you see here are the "Ibox" ones.

In order to due all this on your "Home ++" Screen you need to place the things you want to change(if they are not app organizer ones) on your REGULAR home screen.

Then select "better cut" from the app menu from "Home ++"

To get the ones from app organizer you need long press home ++ screren then top button.

sorry no more time.

Its a tedious tasks

So if I read this correctly........

With Better Cut you can ONLY replace icons on the HOME screen (not screen 2, 3...etc.)?

Can you replace the icon for the app and then use More Icons and have a group of four replacement icons or would More Icons revert to the standard apps?

If the above is true I'll just stick with standard icons using More Icons.
 
Using SweeterHome Beta 2

Its confusing me. I'm runnning on 2.1 successfully. However I'm having a problem with the Live Wallpapers playing fair with it. This is where I began..

So far I'm..eh..Not too far ahead. :-)

Attempting to get more...maybe get some more REGULAR apps on the screen... All I've changed so far is the wallpaper and the widget. I wanted to put Beautiful Widgets at the top, and drop "settings from the bottome, but I like the news and weather better from 2.1. So far its.. eh..okay. Three screens from what I've used. Retail space is.."eh."... Still prefer my 5 screens on 2.1 launcher but I'm just playing with this for the day. Figured some might want to know..

no no no.

i meant the regular home....areas.

you need the icons there in order to change them on the home ++ screens.

but still a pain in the a..
 
Done in sweeterhome. The only widget in these screenshots is the beautiful widget.

I'm more about form than function. Sweeterhome allows up to 5 screens, but because of the way I have it set up I only use 1. First shot is normal home screen. 2nd shot is my apps drawer. 3rd shot is my games screen (apps at the top are my most commonly used so I have them pop up under a bunch of screens). 4th is my phone screen. The blurred stuff is direct dial links. 5th screen is my calendar and weather. I have other screens too (like my options and music screens) and if anyone wants to see them I'll post them too.

My first shot at customizing with sweeterhome. Next step is to use graphics instead of just button blocks. What do you guys think?
