No need for desktop icons if you have a desktop dropdown menu (Look toward the top right, to the left of the clock)
Keeps everything nice and clean.

You know why I put my taskbar on top? An old coworker told me that you actually move your mouse less since almost everything on the screen is toward the top. I tried to test this a while back by running some mouse distance measurement software to see how much I would move my mouse in a week if I had it on top or bottom but never got anything conclusive.

I keep a folder titled with an _ on the bar the same way you have your folders by your clock... but drag it over by the start button... then add the same stuff I always kept on my QL bar... have to add the short cuts to the folder itself, apps can't add to it on install, but works, and has the same feel to it.
How are you all "taking pics" of your desktop screen? Is there something like Shoot Me I can download to capture my desktop image?

**UPDATED** 7/7/10 - 5 custom icons, screen-shot updated.
So I got tired of not having certain icons, and went ahead and made 5 custom icons.
Now, I'm no artist but I rigged a blank icon in PhotoShop to match the style.
added the following 5 icons.
PTT (push to talk) using for TiKL

SMS obvious

Phone Icon using for google voice
XDA obvious (obviously this is a daily app, and i always have it on the front home screen)
I'm keeping the above custom separate than the original package. As I did not create the rest.
I take no credit for the original set. And have no intentions to.
These icons were not generated for android, there are some icons that do not fit for android os, and some missing.
I took the following http://stopdreaming.deviantart.com/art/Albook-extended-dark-811-icons-117250259 icons and converted from .ico to .png 64x64 to work with the evo icons.

Hey is there a Tutorial on how to use these Icons? i been searching all over and No Dice
I use folder organizer
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Actually I was kinda wondering how to use them myself lol. I tried using FolderOrganizer like you suggested fdot and I was able to succesfully change the icon through the app itself but how do you get it to show that same icon in the app drawer or on the homescreen? For example, in FolderOrganizer i changed the TiKL icon to the custom ptt icon that you made but in the app drawer and home screen it still shows the default one. Would really appreciate some help! Thanks in advance
Yes would be awesome if someone could post a tutorial on how to install these
Long click home screen, choose add wiget, choose folderorganizer item, choose the app.
Wont change the app drawer that I know of. But thats not a feature I would use anyway.

In the options you can have up to 15 things total in the dock, access them by swiping the dock left or right.

To set Icons on the main home screen and not just the dock, you can download folderorganizer and change your app icons through this app. Then put the app on the home screen like a widget, but click folderorganizer item, and click app, then the app you want. I have everything on my homeacreen matching because of this app.

Awesome man, that's perfect. Now I just have to figure out how to get rid of the carrier label altogether . Any ideas? BTW, how'd you change your font?
I use the liberty 1.5 rom, it has a bunch of options for fonts and lets you change the carrier name out to whatever you want. So far its been very stable for me and much quicker than stock.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Yeah, I saw the font options, but I'm not sure what adding a font does.. for instance, what'd you do in the toolbox that sets the widget font?
And I'm not talking about changing the text, I'd like to find a way to remove that whole bar, 'cause it just takes up space. I think you can do it in stock.. it's called a "roaming banner" i think
Changing the font effects all the text, everything from Widgets to menus to even the text on most websites in the default browser. It even changed the font in my clock widget. As far as removing the carrier label on the notifications I'm not sure how to remove that waste of space. I never looked into it but now since you mentioned it it's bugging me too. Let me know if you do find a way to remove it.

You long press on the home screen and select add widget like you would when adding a widget to the home screen, select widgetsoid then select a switcher widget. Pick the options you want it to have then go to the advanced tab and select both notification and make invisable. Click apply and it should now show up in the notifications bar. If you want to edit it just open widgetsroid and it will be in the widget tab. Hope this helps.

You can remove it with a metamorph, if you edit the xml in /layout/status_bar_expanded.xml I'm trying to put one together to do this. Right now I've managed to remove the grey area, only thing missing is moving the "clear" button some place else.

Have you been able to figure out a way to move or resize the clear button yet? I really wish I could move it to the bottom of the notification bar. Better yet, I wish there was an app/widget that automatically cleared all new notifications. Been looking for something like that for months without any luck...
I recently tried this launcher and quickly enjoyed the simplicity wp7 offers but don't want to go to wp7 phone any time soon.
Most of my icons are from the metro ui packs but didn't go with metro ui because the tiles look smaller while launcher 7 tiles take up the right amount of room on my screen.
For the live weather tile I use fancy widget pro you have two options for the weather widget and works well for me.
Update- launcher 7 now has landscape support which is good and much better live contact tile image updates.

All you do is press the arrow to go to your app list, being there press and hold the app you want to be a tile, then you get to choose your tile size and picture. For pictures just look up metro ui icons in google/internet,ect and you set them and make the tile, hope it helps.

After flashing the brilliant MIUI rom, i decided to check out the stock launcher. It is one of the smoothest launchers i've used on my infuse other than Launcher Pro, however i was disappointed to be confronted with a I-Phone like home screen experience where all the apps were hanging around willy nilly! Hence i found a simple solution to the problem and it is only 2 steps .
Instructions:
1.Put all of your apps into a single folder except for the ones that you plan to keep on your home screens.
2.Download Alt Drawer and put it in your dock. This will now be your app drawer!
There you go its as simple as that! The experience is almost identical to other launchers.
However to add an app from the app-drawer, u must close the app drawer and grab it out of your folder where you stock-piled all the other apps.
Hope this helps someone...first thread on XDA hope i dont get yelled at
Here is an implementation of what i'm talking about:
My home screen with alt-drawer being the right most app on my drawer
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And on this screen you can see alt-drawer when opened up.
Also i forgot to mention earlier, alt-drawer is very very customizble.
You can change lots of settings
(i.e Background transparency, icon size, font size, font color, side-side scrolling/vertical scrolling, hide/show notification, orientation etc)

This a handy way to get an app drawer. Ive been running MIUI on my Sony X10 for quite a while now. I typically had put all the apps in the tools folder, but the AltDrawer0.7.1 apk works great.
Does the app have a setting so it could scroll side to side like in Touchwiz?

YES
take a look at the screenshot those are all the options. The style option for me is grid...there is another option called page-page which is horizontal. just get app lol its free anyway
Looks like a nice addition. I was just throwing all my apps in one folder and sticking it on the dock. Works basically the same way, but not as customizable.
Nice, thank you I may just try Miui now because of it my friend lol.
thanks for this man. really helpful. I saw another mod, but not as flexible as this. I hope they implement that app drawer concept that's getting big cred on the miui.us site, but this will due until then if that ever gets implemented

I notice that sometimes when I open up the App Drawer, a blank screen comes up before the list of programs appear. It can be up to 6-7 secs.
I tried the suggestion of using Titanium to make AppDrawer a system app. Tried to find the app and move it to the other location, but couldn't find it. Will try again.
Any other suggestions?

Make sure it's on internal memory not sd card. Use Root Explorer and move from
/data/apps to /system/apps.
Works fine after that.
