Hey all!
ADWLauncher is well-known among the community here, and recently on the market, ADWLauncher EX became available and it is absolutely brilliant. Launcherpro has a thread dedicated to showcasing each user's beautiful desktops, and for good reason, as it too is a wonderful launcher. That said, I think ADW deserves equal appreciation, and with the new EX version available on the market, the features and potential artistry of it grows even further.
Please post your screenshots and provide a brief description! For mine ...
Pic 1: My default desktop. I'm obsessed with minimalism, and to achieve this I expanded the desktop (no dock) and used AppsOrganizer to create cataloged folders for my apps. In the top corners are folders for Starred Contacts and All Contacts, respectively, and the clock widget at the bottom is Minimalistic Text.
Pic 2: Right-hand desktop. Left-hand corner with SetCPU 2.10, and once again Minimalistic Text widget at the bottom. This widget is very nice, can provide text- or number-based widgets for date, time, weather, battery, or even static text. Very customizable as well.
Pic 3: Left-hand desktop. Top widget is Visual Bookmarks, bottom widget is Android Agenda Widget, both customized to match other widgets.
All widgets described are available for free on the market. But please share your own pictures and descriptions of ADW!
ADW Ex, Beautiful Widgets, Gingerbread ADW theme

Adw settings -> general behavior -> system preferences -> show notifications. It is part of ex, but unsure if it is part of the free version.

You just need to find the different text icons that you like and then switch them out. It should be an option of ADW.
After you create your own or download a version you like save them to your SD card. Then select the dock icon you want to edit. It will pop up the 3 options and you want to select edit. Then you'll see the edit box pop up. Look to the left and you'll see a picture of the icon. Press that and you'll have the option then to select a different picture. Then you can use the ones you just put on your card.
Hole that helped.
Here is a greyblack GB icon set that I made. These icons are courtesy of longsh0t on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=870691
...but have been redone in a grey-black theme (idea started by spiritcrusher33).
They are nice in CM6.1, which let's you change the icons on your homepages. If you have any requests, let me know. I will work on them when possible.
Included icons:

Do you have an example of the exact color you are looking for? Wouldn't take me too long...maybe an hour for the whole set, or much less if you just want specific ones.

The Launcher(app drawer) icon looks pretty ugly imho. Maybe take another look at it? Specifically the grey and black. Other than that, great job. Thanks
Would you mind if I tweaked the blues a bit and used themin my theme?

I've been working on a yellow set. It's easy to do yourself. Download one of the 2 sets in the OP, unzip the folder, pick an icon, right click on one, click edit and re-color them using Microsoft Paint or another photo shop.
For those of you that likes to use Regina 3D Launcher, these are few wallpapers that I mod and been using on my evo , I want to give credit to "zandog". To get the best you need to use desktop visualizer.
Let me know what you guys think.
1- Download Regina 3D Launcher & Desktop Visualizer from the market
2- Download the attachments to your SD card
This is how is going to work: From Regina launcher hit menu and select to change the wallpaper, select the one you like the most, after that press the screen and select android widgets
use desktop visualizer 1x1 SS and place on top of each icon,select the clear icon from the attachments, do the same for each of the icons, select action by selecting the application that you want to use, clear the label and for touch effect select press OK, do this for each icon on every wallpaper, hope you guys like it.

Every time i try to set one of these as a wallpaper, it just makes a copy on my SD card. What am i doing wrong?
Edit: found out it is the android gallery that is the problem. Dl gallery 3d from the market and use that to apply the wallpaper.

I love the concept and the wallpapers, but when I drag the desktop visualizer over the icons, the trash folder pops up and I cannot drop the desktop visualizer over the icons
Just drop the icon from desktop v as close as you can it will work, does not need to be perfect on top. See if that work if not I send you a new one.

Thanks for the credit, but as I stated in my concept design for this UI, I was commissioned to design this UI for another ROM developer. Therefor it's got a legal copyright. The interface mapping is proprietary but I'm curious if you have you come up with your own code for mapping this interface or is it just the launcher?

I'm surprised there hasn't been a thread on this already!
I posted this in another thread, but mine looks like this. Not terribly interesting apart from the Widget.
For anyone that is interested, I'm using ADW Launcher, the Widget is a Beautiful Widget with an opacity setting of 30% I think. I also hide the icon labels, as it makes it a lot cleaner! I set the Columns to 7 and the Rows to 6 to get as many icons on the screen as I could without it looking too crowded.
The widgets used are as follows:
Widget Type: Beautiful SuperClock 4x3 (Tablet) - I stretched it out so it fits the screen better
Super Clock Skin: honeyclock
Weather Skin: FlatWhite
What are you using for screen cap?

I'm using the Dalvik Debug Monitoring Service (ddms.bat) in the tools directory of the Android SDK install. You must also have the correct drivers installed, which if you've rooted your KF, you should already have.
Once it's detected and connected to your device, you can go to Device > Screen Capture.

I downloaded an app called ScreenshotUX, something like that. There used to be a bunch of screenshot apps in the market, what happened? Are they getting the boot from Google or something?

just went in to the file structure and replaced the image with my own. the wallpaper is from a poster who put up some alternate wallpapers to use instead of the defaults. i just pasted it 21 times in a folder and renamed them to the default names, so it never changes. in reality it's changing every time, it changes to the same pic each time. here's the pic. cant remember the link where i got it.

noticed you have the same weather widget bug, also happens to the pandora widget. something causes it to stretch like that, returns to normal after reset. you know what causes it and if there's a fix?
This is my homescreen as of now.
I really liked the wood bookshelf style of the kindle, so I decided to make wallpapers that would give that same look to other launchers (I'm using ADW).
I also attached a zipped folder with them, hope you guys enjoy.
Comments are always appreciated

Probably a stupid question but you guys that are using different launchers (which in this thread is everyone it seems lol) are you rooted or not? I'm going to side-install a few launchers and had no plans on rooting at this point BUT if it helps the alternate launchers work better I mine as well. Thanks for input and again, sorry if it's a dumb questions.
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say most of us are rooted simply because a lot of ppl seem to have several apps only found on the Android market. Of course you can sideload them without the market, but I think that instead of going through all that trouble most ppl have just rooted and installed the market (especially since it's so easy to do and also allows you to take screenshots).
I love this phone, but I am not that crazy about the icons on TouchWiz. Is there anyway to change icons without being on a ROM that has the theme chooser?

you cuold always try apex launcher or another launcher also!
APK Edit will allow you to change the icon and/or application name for any program... very easy to use.
see this:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/edit-your-apks-the-easy-way-with-apk-edit/
OK, a lot easier way to do this is to download "Apex Launcher" or "Nova Launcher" from the play store. They both support icon packs. There are many free ones out on the play store (stock jellybean, motorola icons, lg icons, google icons, touchwiz icons...etc)
Launcher:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5hbmRkb2VzLmxhdW5jaGVyIl0.
Icons (a bunch):

Icon changer works for me:good:
I've been using Apex launcher for a while now an I really like it. The best feature is letting me change the home page grid size. I really prefer to have 5 x 4 instead of the default 4x4.
I find GO Launcher EX to be an excellent launcher as it has some many plugins available so you can customize every aspect of the O/S to make it look exactly like you want. It also has a complete widget series for further customization. I like the custom calendar, weather, and notifications it provides. Also there is a really cool SMS text message app that add many custom icons to your text messages.
