Here's a few of mine that I rotate:

My latest homemade homescreen - also to be found in the download section for homescreens here on Modaco, under the category "Computer":



And yes - it's the Linux user interface KDE logo I've used along with a Windows silver logo.

And yes - these are screenshots from the danish version - the version here on Modaco is, of course, the english one.

And yes, the background picture can be changed to whatever you like - there's no lines that HAS to be on the background picture itself - you can choose what you like - the menu lies in a seperate "layer" (or rather, scroll).


Edit:
Link to the homescreen: http://www.modaco.co...etails&f_id=862

Please notice that you have to use the HIL Alarm Plugin that I've linked to, in order to make the "set alarm" function work.

sracer, can you post your homescreen files or a link as to where I can find it. I'm really interested in the Speed Racer homescreen. Also if needed, can you include what plugins you use. That was one of my favorite cartoons as a kid. On a couple of side notes. Did you ever watch the Star Blazers cartoon? I use the Speed Racer screen name when I play Colin McRae Rally 2004. Lots of fun. Thanks in advance......

Making the plugin show the name of the selected icon is quite easy - here goes the code:

<!-- icon shortcuts -->
<plugin file="sysplug.dll" clsid="{79EFB752-CB70-446d-B317-499723482B3D}" height="39">

<!-- Backgorund pictures BEGIN -->
	<background b-border-width="0">
  <format state="selected" bgcolor="transparent" font-weight="bold" bgimage="\IPSM\Application Data\Home\iconpic01.jpg"/> 
  <format state="unselected" bgcolor="transparent" font-weight="bold" bgimage="\IPSM\Application Data\Home\iconpic02.jpg"/>
	</background>
<!-- Backgorund pictures END -->

	<mru icon-size="16" valign="top" max-buttons="6" x="60" y="2" w="115"/>
	<appname>
  <format state="unselected" x="55" y="22"/>
  <format state="selected" x="55" y="22" font-weight="bold"/>
	</appname>
</plugin>

Thanks a lot mate! Though I looked 2 late and already did it! I could have saved 2 hours easily lol. Well mine is a bit modified and only takes 1 line entirely. Here is the screen shot and the new XML for everyone! And thanks again for the swift response with the code!

Oh yes - the reason as to why my example takes up so many lines, is because I've embedded all the oppertunities one has with the plugin - for example background pictures (that changes when "selected"), formatting of the text and individual positioning...

Oh and thanks for posting your XML - I didn't know that one could make a START and STOP sound - I guess I have to gamble a bit with that...


As you can see on the homescreens I make, I like that the user can change to any backgroundpicture without affecting the layout itself - that's why I fake a 2 layer design by scrolling vertically so it seems that "menu" is popping up...

yeah, the startup sound I really like! it should have been implemented to begin with! Well mine has no sound (ATT SMT 5600) Just read the xml, u can see what to name the wav file and where it should be in, you should be able to figure it out.

Meanwhile, EVERYONE ELSE KEEP POSTING!

I've added the SmartMonitor plugin to my homescreen that has Facade on it as well (2 different homescreens here)....

extravagant: Love the homescreen you made! But may I request two minor changes for a new xml file for me?  

1. Change the rolling calendar plugin to the standard one.

2. Instead of voice-mail, would you mind changing that to MMS instead?

If so, I would be a very happy camper  

For now, I only use kleinweders homescreens, there just amazing!!
See them here

A question while Im add it: Is there a way to cycle themes automatically, say every hour or so? With theme changer you can autocycle background image, but I would like to cycle the entire theme, is there an application for that?
