PTP's LauncherPro Docks & Icons
------------------------------------------------------
Here you will find all of my various dock and icon based creations for your Android powered device. I am always looking to come up with a new look for my phone, and now I want to help give your phone a face lift as well. Each dock is designed to work with LauncherPro on most Android handsets. The icons packs also are made to work with LauncherPro unless otherwise stated. They are made to look as good as possible with the known size and dimensions of the icons that LauncherPro uses.
Got A Request? While I do tend to constantly come up with new ideas on my own, I am always on the look out for someone with a good idea. Post in the thread with your idea, or request for a modified version of any dock or icon pack. I am also always on the look for new ideas for the icons themselves. I try to steer clear of random programs, but ones we all use, or phone functions I have not made one for are all on the table.

PTP Dock Pack - Updated 03/07/2011
The Docks
------------------------------------------------------
Cleared Up
At first I was making docks just for me, then I randomly decided to make one to hand out to the masses. This was my creation; a weird blend of what I personally like, and some graphics techniques I hadn't used in ages. For a first round back in the realm of Photoshop, I say not too shabby.

Dock:
Merge
A dock I used for quite some time; Merge was a complete redo of a dock found on the LauncherPro forums. I took the idea and moved the app drawer button to the middle (not a fan of side based ones) and also made the app drawer icon a static part of the dock. Still one of my favorites.
Preview:
Dock:
Encircled
After 'Cleared Up' I wanted to do a simpler less busy dock using the same basic idea and method. Encircled is what came of that goal, and my current dock of choice. Encircled is also the main dock I tested and based my 'Punch-Out' icon pack around.
Preview:
Dock:
Enclosed
After completing my first icon pack, I wanted to make a dock specifficaly for 'Punch-Out' so I took the color scheme of 'Encircled' and made it a solid dock. At first I planned, like 'Encircled', to have a Light and Dark variant, but after testing I found it did not work as well. So I went with a normal style dock, and one with a static app drawer button in the middle.
Preview:
Dock:
Embers
Take one look at my computer and you will see I love text based icons. Embers was an attempted at text based dock that used the icons themselves to add an interesting effect. Sadly I did not at the time know the exact way LP handled icons, and it was a large fail. But both the dock, and the icons ended up turning out alright after some tweaking.
Preview:
Dock:
Flat Grain
After the fail of 'Embers' I had to try again for a good text based dock. This time I went with flat colors, and a more grainy effect. Also the icons created for this dock look almost like they are sliding on a track, an effect I plan to use heavily in the future.
Preview:
Dock:
Real Droids Wear Pink
A quick dock done to work with one of the new colors for 'Punch-Out'. This was a request I did quite quickly as it was my first request.
Preview:
Dock:
Utility
As somewhat of a graphic artist, there are times a good idea (with me often one taken from something I've seen) ends up turning out more like a "what the hell was I thinking?" kind of idea. This is one of those. To be honest I thought it was going well right up until the end. And a cookie to whoever can guess what my real world inspiration was for this And why no icons? None of mine work well with it I would have to make a custom set. If someone is actually interested in this I will. But yea...
Preview:
Dock:
The Clearing
There are tons and tons of these solid color slightly transparent docks out there. I have been avoiding them, but they work great with 'Glassy' icons. I have been using and loving the rounded box one. They are very simple, took no time to make and yet work fairly well. And yes the single small bar at the bottom is an idea I like. Its my odd sense of style.
Preview:
Dock:
Carbon Footprint
What started as me trying to make a half sized dock for 'Glassy' icon pack, turned into this, and I am very happy with its outcome. I have this carbon fiber pattern I never get to use, but love; I also have not gotten to do one of these 3D effect docks. So I put the two together, and got this. In the preview you see a custom wallpaer which extends the look of the dock up, click the link and set it as your wallpaper to get the full effect!!
PTP's Wallpapers For Android
As you can tell its meant to not scroll with your phone. To get this effect on LauncherPro, while on the homescreen, click Menu > Preferences > Appearance Settings then check the box next to the option Disable Wallpaper Scrolling.
Preview:
Dock:
Colors Of Ember
Someone request 'Embers' in a different color, and I admit I had already thought of it. I got a little carried away, so unlike most times, I am making a seperate little area for this one instead of adding it to 'Embers'.
Preview:
Dock:
Tabbed
Quick attempt at a tabbed style dock. I will try and expand on this later as well as more colors for it.
Preview:
Dock:
Transparent
I wanted to make a specific dock for the new Reflected icon pack, and really like the way "The Clearing" docks looked with the text based icons, so I modified the idea of "The Clearing" and added much more detail and a baked in app drawer icon. I was also playing around with rounding the edges, and came up with a unique look i quite like.
Preview:
Dock:
The previews you see above are not taken on a phone. I use a handmade layered .PSD which allows me to change the background, dock, and icons at will simply by copying and pasting new designs in. As such expect the look and feel of each to be slightly different on your device. Each preview is modeled after my Nexus One, and is resized down to 360x600px as to decrease bandwidth usage.

The Icons
------------------------------------------------------
Punch Out Icon Pack - V.3
These icons were made for 'Encircled' & 'Enclosed' docks, but work well with many different dock designs. The icons come in a Dark and Light version, and three different bottom glow colors; the original Blue, Green, Pink & Red. 25 Icons in each color and glow.
All icons are 66x66px
Preview:
File: Punch-Out.Zip
Embers Font Icon Pack - V.2
Made to work with the 'Embers' dock. Font based icon set, full words. Updated to work with my better understanding of how the LP icon's are sized.
All icons are 85x85px
Preview:
File: Embers-Font.Zip
Flat Grain Font Icon Pack
Made to work with the 'Flat Grain' dock. These are a font based icon set, and unlike Embers quite a few are abreviated to make the font a bit bigger on the screen.
All icons are 100x100px
Preview:
File: Flat-Grain-Font.Zip
Glassy Icon Pack
I loved most of the actual symbols in Punch-Out, but really started to fall out of love with its general look, so I remade it. Glassy uses the symbols from Punch-Out as a basis, then I refined almost all of them, and added quite a few new ones bringing the total number of icons in this pack to 35.
All icons are 66x66px
Preview:
File: Flat-Grain-Font.Zip
Reflected Icon Pack
I love text based icons, its what I use on my desktop. I also really liked how I did the "Flat Grain Font" icons. So i took the basic idea of Flat-Grain, got rid of the arrow, and added a reflection. I am currently loving this on my phone and hope you will too.
All icons are 100x52px
Preview:
File: Reflected.Zip
The Icon's look great (the 4 you have so far, and in both colors), looking forward to you actually releasing an icon pack.

lol sadly those aren't my icons. I would love to take credit for 'em. I am still working on the initial icon for my first pack, so the design isn't final. I've got like 3 other docks almost done along with the two you see here (i work better with lots of projects going on at once) so i decided to go ahead and post what I had.
I should have put those weren't mine i guess xD Although I can post that set if you want them.
Please post those icons! They look nice!
Here are the Icons. I don't know where I got them, but its what I currently use. Making my own version inspired by them for my first Icon set.
So anyone actually interested in the docks, or just the icons i happen to be using
Here is a preview of the Icons I'm working on. Using the parts of the icon set you see already for now as a placeholder. Getting the styles and things worked out, then I'll do custom icons inside each one. But that takes a while. This should give you an idea of the first Icon set though.
As you can tell its built for Encircled. I'm doing one for the Dark version as well.
Hi papertreeprophet !! Off topic, what's your clock widget ? Which Beautiful Widget Skin (if BW...) ?

It's SiMi Clock Widget. I actually have BW and used it since I got my phone (you can see the weather at the bottom of the latest screenshot) but once I found SiMi i fell in love with its looks and simplicity.

The new Icons are coming along nicely. I got rid of the placeholder images, and am almost finished. Just a bit more refining and a few more icons to make to start, then I have to do the dark versions. Nearly there!!
Heres a preview of the icons as they are now:
thanks for linking the icons from the original pic, ill probably use those while waiting for your icons to be released.
Well won't be waiting long. Just got the last of the initial batch done. I'm working on exporting everything and creating the zip files and all that jazz.
Also once finished, I will take requests for a few days on new icons to add to the pack anyone might need. I pretty much did the basics and a few specialized ones I use for mine. But any others you might need/want i'll make upon request.
Alright! First set of Icons is finished and uploaded. Get yours now!! I am going to take a smoke break and try and crank out at least one more dock tonight. Maybe one to go with the icons that uses the App Drawer icon I included!

Thanks, the Icons are very nice.
In the Punch-Out Dark Set, the "Punch-Out-Dark_Settings.png" is the "Punch-Out-Dark_Music.png" and there is no Setting-Icon in the Dark Set.
Please can you also make a Setting-Icon for the Dark-Set.
Many thanks

A snapshot of the new icons
I think they look very good on my phone. coming tomorrow..
New Icons for Androkkid "TransparentFrames" finally!
These new Icons should work better for those of you who have like me found the standard winmo icon ugly and pixelated.
I have always thought that some of the IPhone's attraction was the beautiful icons that were uniform in size and shape. So I made my own for Ifonz (based on other people's graphic work). When Androkkid came along I loved the scenic wallpapers you could use but I thought the beautiful scenery of the wallpapers became too cluttered with the IPhone style icons and that the square icons ruined the effect of the beautiful wallpapers.
So these new icons are designed to preserve a uniform style and at the same time be better integrated into the "scenery" by using transparency.
I hope that some of you will have a look at these and tell me what you think
PS If you resize these, they will not work. If they are resized by Androkkid they are fine.
If you want to use these and need other icons, ask me on the themes Thread and I'll see what I can do.
!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!
I HAVE MOVED ALL ICON DEVELOPMENT TO THIS THREAD
New!!! Golden Frames
For those who really want to pimp up our phones
here are some Screenshots
The theme used is Teacher's Gold which you find below with the icons
More Screenshots
and even more
the icon files
Finally the iconfiles!
Please consider to try them out, I don't think they are as beautifull as some of the Iphone like icons, like the ones made by bluemetalaxe or Stereo's Leopard, but when you see them glide across the scenery in Androkkid they feel much more integrated into the scenery than the Iphone like icons which leave kind of a square hole in the scenery, however beautiful they are. So what do you have to loose, give 'em a try:
Edit have added new iconfile today 15/12-09 they are now checked out for "white and black" holes and should be okay
!!!!IMPORTANT!!!!

Transparent Icons
These look nice, thank you very much! Any chance you could add a couple more icons to the package (96x96): SMS, Voicemail, Calender, Missed Calls? Or, just tell me how to make these myself and I'll take a stab at it, there's a few web icons I'd like, too. Thanks again!

I'll gladly tell you how I made these, but first here are some suggestions for icons, but what do you mean by an icon for "missed calls" In Androkkid you get a small red circle with the number of missed calls you have. If you think about something else give me a hint
Hope you like these

What is problematic with winmo is that it doesn't support "white". In an icon with transparancy, pure white will show up like a black hole in the icon so you have to substitute white with another light white-ish color.
Another problem is this: When a graphic program like gimp or photoshop compresses a png to a smaller size. it conserves the smoothness of the png by making semitransparant pixels, these are not supported either and show up like white holes in the icons.
If you just index the png it will avoid the semitransparent pixels, but it will scale down with a very crude and pixelated result.
My way around this is to put the compressed png in a frame filled with a very nondescript greyish color. Then I have to eraze all the grey color and decide pixel by pixel which pixels have enough color to let them remain.
This is why it takes so much time to resize these icons. I have to do this every time. In the icon files I have uploaded you can find both an empty and a filled frame.
If you want to try this for yourself you are very welcome to do so but remember that you have test each icon on your phone to find "holes" before you publish them.
PS I haven't tested the last batch of seven icons yet but I will test them before I publish a zip file with extra icons.
PS Gimp is a fantastic graphic program which you can download for free here
Best of luck
Missed Calls
And here's a missed calls icon in three colors
Icons
These all look great, and wow that was fast! By "missed calls" I should have put "Call History" or "Call Log", but it looks like you got the gist with the icons because they're perfect! I'm probably pushing my luck, but maybe a "Tasks" icon? It's the only request I can think of off the top of my head. I'll check out the app you suggested tonight and see if I can create a few "Web" graphics, thanks again!

I have some specific icon requests if possible. I'll also be attempting my own icon pack in the near future.. I'm waiting for this quarter's classes to end first.

Thank you so much.. These Icons look great, thats why I hope you can make these so my phone can look even better.
New Theme
Am I the first to produce a new theme for Androkkid?
Let me introduce Obsidian, for those who might prefer a more businesslike theme.
It has been developed on a QVGA screen so I have no idea whether it will work on other screen resolutions.
Just unzip and place the Obsidian folder in the Androkkid Themes folder. It will then be available to select under Settings
The Title buttons (more than shown) can be found in the Obsidian theme folder along with a blank if you wish to make different titles (I can make others if you aren't able to do that). I set the size of the Title buttons to 128 x 32 in Androkkid settings and they have to be positioned, as for any other icon. They can also be used as shortcuts as per normal icons. For example, in my setup, I have the Contact button pointing to my address book.
The 'Lock' Icon on the Home page is not part of the theme but has been designed to match. I have included that icon in the Obsidian theme folder, but none of the other icons.
8 December 2009
Obsidian.zip updated for compatibility with Androkkid 1.2.0.0 (inclusion of TopBarIcons,png) and correction of transparency problem with Edit & Delete buttons
15 December 2009
Obsidian.zip updated with modified graphics

There already is a cleanram icon (the one with the broom) but if you don't like it I can make another. For SoftReset I use the icon from the icon pack called "exit" (I use "Slide2shutdown" myself) There also is a bluelock (ScreenLock) in the iconpack I have that one in green and red too
I don't know which sound widget you mean, please give me a link or something.
Here are some examples, tell me what you think..
Internet Sharing

Blinded by Faith, the first theme by The Reverend Gridlock @ androidoverdrive.com
Hey everyone, I was down at david1171 place and he has taught me the basics of how to theme. Seeing as this is the first go-round for me, I would appreciate any and all feedback you care to give.
This dark theme is my adaptation of david1171's Minus-X theme and includes brandenk's app drawer tab and a calendar template from Ted417 (thanks guys). I have posted a base version of the theme for cyanogen roms cause the different adp google apps can break on i know at least the 32a magics so this is without google apps or the lockscreen, the dvanced launcher is included though. Add-ons include David1171's skinned 2.0 apps, Stericsons lockscreen, an add-on for Google Nav
Special thanks to david1171 (buy the man some noodles) and pretty much everyone that he thanks for his theme, ted417, brandenk and pershoot for keeping up Stericson's lockscreen. If I forgot anyone, please shoot david a PM or find me on androidoverdrive.com and I will include your name as well.
And everyone: Please, please provide any feedback and/or suggestions here...Thank you

hey guys give me some feedback to make this a better theme
i flashed this yesterday for 4.2.6 and now theres 4.2.7.1 lol i like this theme alot...i've been looking for a nice black theme and this is it. i don't even know what to tell you that could help...if anything maybe add a solid black keyboard like a gloss type and maybe do the same for the music, power, and search widgets. im not really a big fan of the boot screen but its nice so i can't complain, but this theme is nice, good work man!!
Edit: I guess what i was tryin to say about the widgets is maybe make em more glossy black and not so much white in em? don't know if that makes any sense lol
Good theme but better with the keyboard on this black thème : http://a5-studios.com/dwang/Themes/
and without this bad pic : http://i966.photobucket.com/albums/ae145/david1171/grid/device4.png
I love the pulldown but I like the app drawer background more I guess (yeah, I'm pouting cause he's gonna change it). A lil more black can never hurt. And my son loves the bootscreen...

Alright, keyboard is redone and I have a new status bar pulldown image that flows better with this theme. Will add them in the next release, next onto the power control widget
Also I forgot to do the progress bars and the dialer during phone call
Hopefully I should have a new release out tonight or tomorrow
made some to changes so we got a v1.0 now, check the changelog
just flashed it and the changes look real good, especially the keyboard...the only suggestion i have is the pull down background maybe make it like a solid transparent black?? and if you can make it glossy at the bottom like the first one (i liked that affect) other than that good work bro, keep it up.

Well I would but then I think it will be kinda boring, I really like the new pulldown a lot better than the old one but if you want a solid black semi transparent I could make a small flashpack for you that will just overwrite that image
Also I am working on the settings widget icon's kinda want something else for them, when you suggested taking the white out were you reffering to the icons or the surrounding the widgets

naw thats cool, its not a big deal at all and this pull down is nice too so you don't have to do that. I was talkin about the white around the widgets i guess its a border and maybe use a widget like the community hero power one. i think the border is like a glossy black, the icons are white and theres like a button or something under them that lets you know when its on. or the one from marks theme, his is transparent with the icons i think but you would have to change the icons and i don't know how easy or hard this stuff lol. i think something like either one of those would be tight. but ultimatly it's up to you lol, either way i'm still gonna use this theme cause i like it a lot
EDIT: i did notice when i was using the internet that the address bar looks white on white (the writing blends in with the address bar) not a big deal but i just wanted you to know in case you wanted to change it.
Yes I know about the progress bar, I gotta go into the xml and edit it. I didn't even notice that it was that light till this morning, so I gotta fix that and make it more of a dark gray or something like that.
I will look into the widget and the border I was playing with the border yesterday but since it is a .9png that gets streched it is kinda a pain in the ass to work with but I still am. I am not sure exactly what I am gonna do yet with it, I was playing around with different ideas yesterday of what I wanna do with them so something soon will be coming soon
Also I am gonna regloss out the bottom of the pulldown
I still gotta get around to the smily icons too but I haven't found any that I really like that small
I am also looking for a font to go with it but everything I find comes out either too small or too big or looks like a jarbled mess on the screen. If anyone knows what program I can use to edit .ttf please let me know
cool...i'm not good with all this stuff but i'll keep my open for you on the .ttf editor
I understand, I am just getting better with doing it myself. It's a good thing I am good at figuring stuff out or at least good at pressing random buttons.
is it hard to create themes? i've wanted to give it a shot but i don't even know where to start at lol
Once you set up adb and get your phone connected then it is mostly a matter of opening up your .apks framework res with something like 7zip then go into your drawable folder and editting the .pngs. try to stay away from the .9pngs cause they are a pain in the ass cause they need to be compiled
It really isn't all that hard but it is very time consuming to do just one image and then flash it test it and check it
Thankfully I was at david1171's place and he taught me the basics
do you have just the dark music widget update?
Not to shabby minus the grim reaper lol
The grim reaper is the avatar that I used everywhere for a long time so I made it my boot screen if you like the just the music than I could make a flash pack for just that if you like
To the people that have d/led my theme what do you think of the statusbar pulldown image(yes I know I forgot to post the screenshot of it) the more that I look at it the more I really like it and am thinking bout carrying it over to other parts of the theme like maybe the widgets backgrounds at first
Inspired by the thread "Android Phone 7", I designed a bunch of anime style icons.
1. Style following "Android Phone 7":
{
"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"
}
2. New style designed recently, I want to call it a "Animedroid 7" style :
-Using "MultiPicture Live Wallpaper" to perform the wallpaper so that the status bar won't be a black bar in LauncherPro.
-The third screen's design is inspired by a lockscreen for iphone4, which can be found here, although I know mine is not a lockscreen and more work is still needed.
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
On the pictures. (For how-to, keep reading~ )
-HTC HD2 with MIUI 11.19 - convenience, speed, beauty
-Desktop Visualizer - for the anime icons
-LauncherPro - for arrow shortcuts, dock, resizing
-Sticky Memo Widget - for the label of the links
-Widgetsoid - for the Switcher and time banner
-mClock - for weekdays
-MultiPicture Live Wallpaper - for a "live" stable wallpaper so that the semi-transparent status bar won't be black in LPR or ADW
Azusa wallpaper original:
credit: kemonomimi madness!
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
How-to:
For style 1, it's just same method as the "android phone 7" style, not going to explain here.
Style 2 - Animedroid 7:
-In image1/screen1, everything is built by desktop visualizer, except for #15, I used it as a LRP shortcut, which you can still apply the image as a link to other stuff.
-In image2/screen2, 1 to 4 are built by desktop visualizer as well. 5 to 12 are fake labels built by "sticky memo widget"(uploaded, not in market any more). 13 you can use either widgetsoid or extended controls(newest version).
-In image3/screen3, widgetsoid for the time banner and mclock for the day of the week. You can use OneSeven for the day of the week as well, but the options of font size are limited.
-I've indicated needed columns and rows combination on the images, the final combination should be 10X8.
-More about #15 arrows:
The reason I build another set from the original sets of arrows is that with the original set, when you use LPRshortcuts/DesktopVisualizer to put them on desktop of your phone, their positions are never where I want them to be. So I change the size of arrow icons in order to have them at the right visual position.
More about wallpaper:
1. Making your own wallpaper like mine
p.s. If you have more than 4 screens, just calculate how wide you need (width of your screen times numbers of screens) and change the canvas size.
2. Trick about "multipicture live wallpaper"
If you have downloaded my background pack and looked at my PSD, you shall see some cyan vertical lines, which divide the picture into four parts, which each is actually an individual wallpaper for your screens.
For more details, look at the tutorial picture below.
p.s. If you have more than 4 screens and have already changed the canvas size. You can just cut the picture into the number of pieces you need and then apply the trick said in picture.
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
Anime icons used in on the first screen of style 2 - Animedroid 7 (Now with PSDs):
animedroid7.rar -(now using multi-upload)
Purple icons and PSD as in the second screen of Animedroid 7 style:
SWG-moded.rar -(now using multi-upload)
PSD for making your own picture like the background in my images:
forlivebg.psd -(now using multi-upload)
Some people report that they can't find sticky memo widget on market. I checked the developer's webpage and found out that it's no longer in market now, so I uploaded this titanium-backup of this widget. Unrar the RAR file and put the three files in it into "titanium backup" folder in your SD card, and then run titanium to install it. Please let me know if it works. klyzon reports that it's working. So I guess no more concerns here
stickymemowidget-titaniumbackup.rar -(now using multi-upload)
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
In the attachments,
"animedroid7.rar" is the package of anime icons in the first style.
"animedroid7 v2.rar" contains the anime icons in the second style.
-the dock bg
-the red button
-back and next pngs are for the original arrow icons as in the first style
-back and next page pngs are to be put on the desktop as in the second style(the reason why I develop a second set of these arrows will be explained in the "how-to")
[the two sets of arrows are in white so they are not very clear to see in the attaced area below, but yeah, they are in the attached images, if you right click, you can always save them]
That is awesome! XD

I was advised a few weeks back that the full sizes of the first versions of these icons - pretty much what's seen in the sample layout below the version pics in this post - are too small when applied using DVR in certain setups. All versions except the pink are up and resized. Also in progress is a DVR TUT, stay tuned. These newly bigger ones look best at a 2 row 1 column ratio, and the DVR option you select for widget size - 2x1, or 4x2, or 6x3 - should be closest to the display size you want in advance. Resizing am icon from 2x1 to a 4x2 will stretch the image, but selecting 4x1 and expanding it 1 row will do the trick for a larger icon. Please let me know if this makes sense
Here's V1.2: grey toned buttons with colored glyphs. Contains the same icons as V1.1R

Please post your screens or links to them - I'd love to see what you've done with the icons
On applying the icons: I use a photo editing program to put the icons on whichever screens I'd like, directly on the wallpaper. Not only can I then space the icons however I please, but this also allows for different wallpapers on different screens.
One of the easiest ways to apply whatever icons you'd like (without a computer, or on your phone) it to use Desktop Visualizr: these icons will come out best at 2 rows wide by 1 tall, depending on your layout. I am in the process of writing a very in depth TUT on doing so for a variety of setups, so please stay tuned Here are the very basics
1. You can save the icon image(s) to your SD card and apply it as a widget anywhere on the screen. 2x1 works best. Long press, choose DVR 2x1, select the image on the prompt, and selection the app/action that corresponds to it.
You can apply the icons to wallpaper via photo editing, then simply use transparent .png pictures to put your shortcuts/apps in the areas over the paper using DVR.
Here are some tutorials and discussions: click, clicky, click, clicky, and click.
If you haven't seen PaulMZ's Windows Phone theme for Android over at Android Forums, his first post gives a huge amount of great info on Desktop Visualzr and image editing for custom icons on your homescreen.
To use different wallpapers on different screens, there are two applications I know of to do this, both free on the market: MultiPicture LiveWallpapers and Super Wall Lite. I prefer Super Wall because it hogs less memory and it MUCH more stable in my experience. Please ignore the bad ratings: those were given by users who were not informed about how to apply the super paper: you must access the app via the 'Live Wallpapers' setting on your phone; the same is true for MultiPicture.
There is another benefit in using 'panoramic papers' of Super Wall- that is, one extra wide paper styled to use on mutliple screens. In MultiPicture, however, you must apply one paper to each screen. Since I am always changing screens, and can often be testing icons and themes on 7 screens at one, I prefer the ease of Super Wall in just making one big paper to span all the screens.
If you aren't familiar with a lot of image editing practice, I am glad to apply the icons to a paper of your selection - just post the paper and which icons you'd like applied, along with your phone's resolution/model and your layoud grid for columns and rows.
If you like what I have done and would like to show your gratitude, Leo is pretty hungry...

The font closest to what I used in the V1 icons is Jersey M54- click here to download from DaFont.
The font for the serif tiles is DejaVu Serif Condensed.
The best way to make 'live' tiles, frankly, is to apply the icons to your wallpaper, then put whatever text widgets you'd like on top. You can put the icon down as a widget using Desktop Visualizer then apply another text widget on top if your home launcher supports 'overlapping widgets' during customization. This will work...or it won't. Often, people say it works until the phone is rebooted - then presto, chango, the widgets are unstacked.
I am sure that some of you have mastered 'make your own widgets' like Chronotopia or M-clock, and can then use the icon as the backdrop with the desired text on top - I hope to give these or other similar apps a try in the near future, but I myself find it preferable just to mess with the wallpaper
There are blank email, gmail, call, sms, calendar and clock icons enclosed within all versions.
I have used SMS unreadcount mods on all the tiles- the easiest way is to apply the icons to your paper, then put a transparent icon for the SMS unreadcount bubble. I have done the same with ADW Ex notification bubbles, using ADW Ex to make the icon for the gmail/phone/sms icon a blank image over the top of the paper. I am glad to help out with this process

Sorry, I was just updating the thread with another color scheme and instructions.
Basically they icons are:
1. png's to apply to your wallpaper in a photo editor - put them wherever you want, then use transparent icons/shortcuts/widgets on top - a lot of people use Desktop VisualizR to do that.
2. Apply with Desktop VisualizR using the images as the actual widgets; you can use any image to as a widget/shortcut. This limits the size of the icon to whatever your grid layout is for you screen. So if your grid is a vageuly squarish setup - like 4 columns by 6 rows - then the image would be resized to fit in this space. That means you're somewhat restricted on how closely you can place icons/images together, and where they can go on your screen. That's why I personally use method 1.
3. Also, some home launchers (like ADW) will let you replace default icons with your own images. This has the same restrictions as 2.
I promise to do a step-by-step and link TUTs for this by tomorrow with screen shots.
In the meantime, I am happy to apply the icons to a wallpaper of your choice if you are familiar with using Desktop VisualizR- that allows you to put transparent shortcuts on top for anything you want. I would need your paper, grid layout, and phone model/resolution.
Come back soon for more, sorry for the delay MP

tyvm putting out 2 new variations in a lil while
As shown in the screenshot thread im already using your icons But a request: red or orange icons, the whole set.
Edit: never mind, I can color tint them by myself.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So I've reworked 360 launchers settings giving icons shadows, resizing them, removing icon names and dock bar. (ignore the milocker shot, not part of launcher)
To add icons just decompile add a full sized icon to drawableHDPI with the first part of the underscore names from this website http://activities.droidicon.com/
(example)
goto the android activity website and search for facebook. It'll list four kinda of activities. Get the third activity which is "com_facebook_katana_loginactivity" now compare it to the first one "com.facebook.katana" now if you cut the actual launch activity off (which is longinactivity) and make an icon called "com_facebook_katana.png" now you have to add app_ to the start of it. so if you make an icon called "app_com_facebook_katana.png" you'll have a theme facebook application. Pretty simple. Probably easiest application i've seen to theme.
(example)
all over parts can be altered in values dimensions and styles. If you want to add icon names back, etc.
Things that don't work:
After adding shadows to the icons the folders have a shadow overlayed onto them.
----
I take no credit for anything here, I didn't make the launcher or the icons, all I've done is modify it. All credit to the original authors. If anyone has a problem just let me know.

Edit: oh yeah, the layout used is 9 x 7, go into preferences to change this.

Thought so! could easily be fixed by decompiling and adjusting the icon size though! it's just in res/value/dimension.xml then move shadow location on the background image to fit!

Thanks I was worried about finding it then finding a way to make the icon invisible but the launcher does it for me

Thanks for sharing the details! And yup, most definitely HDPI only. These are from my MDPI Optimus V.

hmm, can you post a screenshot? I've only tested it on my phone, so can only see from that. The dock icons will always be miniature because I made it as small as possible for my layout effect. as for the shadows, I'm not sure why that could be. :/

Yep here it is. also the apps that are in folders in the drawer are not aligned properly
Sorry the image wouldn't upload right so here's a download link from my dropbox

Yeah, that's correct. You need to remove the icons from the dock, I made it as small as possible so the page indicators are as low to the bottom of the screen. As for the suave icons, they're just the ones left over from my experimenting, so not full size. Just add your own full sized icons using the file names and they'll fit. I only really full size themed the apps I mainly use. As for the folder, i didn't bother re-alligning the icons because the overlay shadow kinda ruins the folder icons anywho. Probably won't suit everyone. But i modified this launcher to my needs and tastes!

Thought so! could easily be fixed by decompiling and adjusting the icon size though! it's just in res/value/dimension.xml then move shadow location on the background image to fit!

Haha alright, I'll be sure to try that! In the meantime, I've grabbed your icon mix to use with my own launcher

Help please!
Hey all,
First of all, thanks to Taine0 for sharing his wonderful ideas and APK's!
I have an MDPI phone (HTC Aria) and I've been trying to figure out how to re-align the shadows for my icons!
I think I have the actual icons looking okay, but there are a few things I need help on:
1. How can I re-enable the "Application name" text under each icon?
2. How can I align the icon shadow to look like Taine0's screenshot?
3. How can I add more icons, such as QuickPic. (I tried to use the DroidIcon Activity name, replaced the icon, but it wouldn't work )
Thank you to all who will help!
A couple screenshots!!!

Right 1. go into res/value/styles.xml and under work space icon make the font about 11.0sp and the color to FFFFFF(or whatever black is in hex) you may need to adjust the workspace icon padding top in res/value/dimensions.xml (theres also a valuemdpi/dimensions.xml to adjust icon size and some different things.
2. theres two ways to do this. Make an MDPI version of the shadow file and shrink it or reposition the shadow within the PNG to make it line up with the shadows. (it was trial and error for me)
3. I'll give you an example.
goto the android activity website and search for facebook. It'll list four kinda of activities. Get the third activity which is "com_facebook_katana_loginactivity" now compare it to the first one "com.facebook.katana" now if you cut the actual launch activity off (which is longinactivity) and make an icon called "com_facebook_katana.png" now you have to add app_ to the start of it. so if you make an icon called "app_com_facebook_katana.png" you'll have a theme facebook application. Pretty simple. Probably easiest application i've seen to theme.
4. Notice the page indicators aren't quite as low on MDPI, go into res/values/dimensions.xml and change the bottombar size. If you want the dock back. just change it to the size you want the icons to be.

Hey Taine, I've been lurking around XDA for quite a while now. But only registered an account to post in this thread!
Basically, I just found about 360 Launcher and would love to use your 'port', however I have a MDPI device (Samsung Galaxy Ace) I saw you said you need to decompile and edit the xml file. I have decompiled, and found the xml file, but I am a 'noob' to editing for android so I do not know the values, any help?
Regards,
P.s. Thanks !
EDIT: I've found the icon size of your icons is 72px, I will batch change the size to 48px using photoshop.
Could you guide me through the rest of the steps to ensure the setup for MDPI?
edit 2 A link to all 'drawable-HDPI' icons for MDPI (converted from 72px x 72 px to 48 x 48).
As I can't post links.. here: [addhttphere] goo.gl/Lp8fq
So far...so good
Thank you so much for all the help!!
Here's what my phone looks like now after:
1. Setting icon name text to white and 11.0sp size
2. Attempting AND FAILING to re-align the shadow.
3. Decreasing the docksize, so the indicators are in their proper place.
I tried to shrink the shadow for the icons, but I don't know what I'm supposed to reduce it to. I have a 320x480 resolution phone. What do you recommend?
ALSO:
I followed your instructions for theming custom apps, and it worked successfully for:
MiLocker
QuickSSH'd
Facebook
Edit: Root Explorer
however, when I try to theme the app "QuickPic" (using the same method) it doesn't take any effect Please help! And once again, thank you!!!
Edit: Taine0, in your screenshots, how did you get BatteryBar right below your statusbar? It looks really nice!!! I followed the instructions in this thread, but it doesn't look like yours. please share! EDIT AGAIN I figured out how to ^^ (the battery bar on bottom) solved on pg 32 of ^ that thread
awesome...greaatt dude.can u share xml for bottom indicators or u can modded go launcher bottom indicator
