Pretty sure I uploaded a PSD for the walls in a previous post( not sure, losing track now!) do you want me to upload another? Is it the PSD you're wanting?

Changed my home screen,lock screen and some of the walls.

Pretty darn minimal now!

I like my new widget locker mod, too. looks snazzy. HA.

i found png's but not psd's

psd's with only layer for the Screen Labels would do fine if they are heavy :P

also, i tried to setup application screen with that wooden shelf you have done.

not able to align icons to appropriate places at all.

i have tried with muticon, bettercut and desktop visualizer but no help.

Right, I'll upload the PSD tonight then.

I had to size the application shelf to the exact size for the icon set i used. I'll add the shelf image to the PSD too, then setup the screen on your phone how you want it (putting the icons on the screen). Take a screenshot, drop the screenshot over the application shelf PSD, set some transparency and transform the shelves into line with your icons! easy peasy.... Or you could do it the really simple way. Make your icons part of the wallpaper in photoshop. then put a blank.png over them.

The background is just a black image, so all the tags are done with desktop visualizer. Still need to finish media and social pages (need to download a facebook app to use with ADW EX)

Might upload theme when i get chance, have to make some other icons first, though!

Sorry if I am just missing something stupid; but how are you displaying the background image are you still using multipicture live, or desktop visualiser; as surely you would have to overlay the minimalistic text widgets and other desktop visualiser widgets on top of the original desktop visualiser widget and I can't work out how to do that.

Thanks

As a side note I'm using ADW Ex as my current launcher.

Hey, the image you quoted there I used dekstop visualizer over a black background, but I found that multipicture livewallpaper runs (slightly) smoother than having those massive desktop visualizer icons. So yeah, I use multilive picture wallpaper and put minimalistic text over, usually.

Here is a batch of wallpapers I made for my recent theme. walls I made it so the page tags line up with helvetiker free font I use in minimalistic text.

Impressed with the stock Gingerbread UI on my Nexus S, I've gone for the Gingerbread look thanks to kallt_kaffe's excellent Japanese Jellyfish ROM & Frankish's superb themes.

Also using:

Gingerbread Launcher

NexusKang free live wallpaper with stock Gingerbread background.

Beautiful Widgets.

I'm also using the stock Nexus S ringtones with my SanFran too.

Nothing special but it's what I like! I absolutely love this phone tho. :D

Hey Chaz...I was under the impression from your screen shots that I could use multiple wallpapers (a different one for each homescreen). Found that I can't :D.

I'm having a bit of trouble with this with my nexus s, have you (or anyone else) found a solution for multiple wallpapers on Nexus S handsets? I've tried Multipicture Live Wallpaper and Multiple Wallpaper but neither work (both just take one of the images and display it on ALL the homescreens.

Any help would be appreciated.....

Taken inspiration from taine0's design, mostly minimalistic text and I have used widgitsoid, Frankish's GenerationX Theme and 0x90 mod for the notice bar.

Wow! Compared to some of the screens I've seen here, mines, well, bland :D

The thing is, all the apps are within easy reach, and they're the ones I use the most :D

The wallpaper changes every 5 mins or so (I can't remember the time, and its nice to wake up to a different wallpaper every morning @ 5am), and, it all sits on top of Launcher Pro

Can I ask what this does to your device's performance? (since it's having to show a new image each screen etc, tons of icons and different widgets).

I don't have any problems with the speed of my blade, it's not as fast as if you just had a plain background and no icons, but it really doesn't make it too slow to use. At the moment I have 7 screens because I use 2 for experimental themeing and it can get a little slow scrolling to the end, but with 5 it's all good. If you tried it and the performance wasn't what you like, you could save the background images as JPEGS or something, reducing the file and memory usage, probably improve the speed slightly.

edit: also apart from the applications page, theres very few widgets used. Not including minimalistic text cause that uses very little memory, theres only 5 for all the screens.

Been working on a wallpaper, thought this might be the place to share it!

Nice. Personally I would have had the Android dude going the other way. But that's me being picky. :D
