where are the wallpapers?

In which directory can I find the two default wallpapers that come with LauncherPro?
I use the ADW launcher, but I like the metalic-grid-like wallpaper that comes with LauncherPro, and that's the only reason why I still have LP installed. If I could copy this particular wallpaper and save it somewhere then I can uninstall LP.
Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing.
In my case, I switched to the metallic grid just to see what it looked like. I wanted to return to the original wallpaper, but it isn't one of the choices!
I also tried some custom wallpapers, and that wipes out the original wallpaper too. Where is the original one kept?

You can get the wallpaper that you want directly from the LaunchPro apk file. Downloaded it from here:
http://www.launcherpro.com/
On my Ubuntu PC, I can unpack it because it actually is a compressed file like ZIP. There are two versions, named wallpaper_dark.jpg. One is in the drawable-hdpi folder. The other is in the drawable-mdpi folder.
Now if I can just find the one I am looking for.

Correct - some of these wallpapers are embedded into the apks themeselves.

I couldn't find the original default LauncherPro wallpaper, and I hate the only two that they offer. So I uninstalled it, and installed ADW.Launcher instead. I found an Ubuntu wallpaper in market, so now everything feels more familiar.

Folder Icons?????

Ok so you know how you can add a folder to your main screens, and then put other app icons in there. Well the folder is a stock manilla folder and i was wondering how we can change that icon to a folder icon of my choice. If anyone know how please let me know. Thanks

I know it's possible with ADW Ex, I'm not sure about other home replacement apps, but I don't think LauncherPro allows this.
You can also use something like Simi Folder or Folder Organizer to premake folders with custom icons and then add them to your homescreen as a widget or shortcut.

ok cool thanks ill have to give that a try

Launcher Pro Plus allows it, I don't know if the free version does. Go Launcher allows it too.
Folder Organizer lite is wonderful. App Organizer too.

And what about ES? Can it change icons?

Changing Icons

So i found the thread with all the icons in the world and got some i would like to use for my TF.
I have been able to use them on the folders i created with folder organizer.
Butttttt.. i have not been able to find a way to change the icons/create icons for installed apps.
I tried anycut and desktop visualizer but they make the icons smaller and have different font.
on my phone i used to use shortercut i believe but this is not available for tablets.
so how could i get this done?
any suggestions?
Thanks.

Folder Organizer can do it. Go to apps, select the app you want to change, select icon.

that only changes the icons you see in the folders of folder organizer doesnt it?
it doesnt let you change them and see them that way on the home screen.

You can change an icon for any app you place on the home screen so long as you use Folder Organizer to do it.
Go into Folder Organizer select your app and change it's icon to one you specify.
Next go to add an item to the home screen and go to more and select Folder Organizer Item.
Next select apps and select the app that you changed the icon to.
There you go, you should now have a custom iconed app on your home screen.

w00t, your right.. awesome!
Just what i wanted.
Thanks..

Glad you got it working. Incidentally, you can also change icons with ADWLauncher EX just in case your interested.
Cheers...

When I want to permanently change an icon (well not permanently since it can be undone) I use apk edit. Just type it in the search bar and it should pop up. Or you can just apply them with a launchers such as Go Launcher, Launcher Pro, and ADW

Go Launcher EX & CM9 Themes Question...

So I have go launcher ex running on AOKP Milestone 6. Everytime I change the theme using theme chooser it never changes the dock, dock icons, or indictor. If I go into preference and then visual it don't give me the option to choose the theme. Its not seeing the theme chooser theme. Is this a go launcher default action? When I used nova launcher it does it for me no problem. With go launcher I can only change the dock icons manual. Even if i click on a icon to change the icon it only finds the themes installed from go launcher.
Is there a way to fix this? I like the way nova does it but I use the Facebook unread notifications that go launcher has. Nova don't have this.

u can't choose aokp theme in go launcher setting u can't use anything other than theme Chooser to change aokp themes ........I run apex launcher along with aokp rom inorder to change the icons of dock bar I just restart my launcher after applying aokp theme ........

I do get what u say but All I want to do is pick a theme in theme chooser that comes with AOKP rom and it change all the icons and apply the whole theme. With go launcher ex it don't do that. All it does it apply the main icons and change the system icons and UI. But it don't change the dock bar, dock icons, app menu icon, or indictor. I either have to purchase the go launcher matching theme for this to work or deal with it on the default system theme that go launcher ex provides. I don't like how go launcher does this. It nova launcher had Facebook unread count i would switch over to that in a heart beat.
just trying to see if theres a work around for it without buying the matching go launcher theme.
