Seriously, you can hide the dock bar, then get one of those widgets that do all you want, be creative...
spark from hiplogic inc is rather different

Me having way too much time on my hands. Fully working and fully customizable widgets. Widgets layed out to mimic WP7. This is Running Launcher Pro Plus. NOT A ROM. Stock 2.1 w/update fascy Bloatware removed.
Watch it in action!

Very nice.
I was thinking about creating one for myself.
Would you mind telling me how to create these custom widget for Launcher Pro Plus?
I think I saw it somewhere else in xda but couldn't find it.
a sort of step-by-step instruction would be nice
Thanks in advance.
There is a very detailed post in the general android forums. Its called android phone 7.

Here's what I did, I didn't read any other forum on how to do this. I just wanted it so I just basically did it how I would do it.
First, get launcher pro plus. You need LPplus so you can resize widgets. Hide your notification tray, empty out the bottom dock.
I'm using "Desktop Visualizer" on my Android phone. Check it out here: http://whatsonyourandroid.appspot.com/details?p=jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr
Download desktop visualizer from market. Then download icons from google images. Then just add the DV widget like normal. It will instruct you which app to use, super easy. Then just resize everything like you want it. Then repeat.
Did you not have any problems with Desktop Vis slowing down your phone? On my Droid OC'd to 1,000 it made my screens super laggy having around 16 widgets total.

Thanks a lot for your instruction.
I'll give it a shot.
Thanks.
Maybe slightly work on the wording fitting into the icons instead of floating. I have the original set on mine for the past week and love it. Was working on new icons myself haha.

Can get a screen shot of yours. It was very difficult to even come close with the wording. Resizing the widget also resizes the position of the words. Couldn't figure out the right rhythm.
That is freakin dope! I might try to do something this weekend..

I have mine posted in the screen shot topic. Best way to use those icons is with Desktop Vizualizer and run LPP.

Yea I saw your theme and that inspired me to do mine. I sent you a private message a week ago, about how you did yours, no response. So I had to do it a way I only knew how to. Using the desktop visualizer, a very rough way making custom icons.

Yep. Launcher Pro + DV + GIMP + Sick Day. lol.
I like the concept, but not the Win7 icons that are out there. I will probably take the time to fit everything better size wise later, but this was fun.
How did you get more control of the title icons. Using DV I didn't have much options with the resizing of the title.

put the title in the image you create.
The image and the title move dependent with each other using DV. I'm sorry im not understanding. Its very tricky cause the title and image are preset its just manipulating the size.

Hey great work i like it so far!! by the way love the MT4G Bar!!
when you say 'touchwiz free' what do you mean exactly? just no tw launcher? or all tw apps as well? i'm going to test it out regardless, but tw contacts is the only thing i'd miss...the only thing samsung did right imo.
hey
instead of contacts icon, can you tell me how to put a sms icon there?
thanks

It uses Launcher Pro.
You should be able to long press that Contacts Icon to bring up the "Edit Dock Shortcut" Pop-up window.
then,
tap "change shortcut"
then "Applications"
Then "messaging"

You cant unfortunately. The icons in the dock are part of the .png file. You can change the shortcut, but not the actual icon itself.

I think Im going to theme the whole ROM. This will be my first attempt at the theming game, so it may take a little while.
this looks pretty nice. im liking the Einherjar releases more and more. currently rolling Trigger 2.0.1

An accurate battery mod would be ideal. Also, never been a fan of the tw notification bar. Too much color.

Hey guys. Not trying to flame as I use Loki, but seriously you're putting out way too many roms and you need to consolidate because it's getting a little ridiculous.

A quick and maybe dumb question: Is there a way to arrange icons in the homescreen just by sliding one on top of the other, like the iPhone?
Thanks in advance!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Thats exactly what you do.
Press and hold the icon the drag it round to where you want it then let go.
Drag it down to the bin icon to remove it.
To place an icon on the home screen, go to the apps screen and press and hold the icon you want on the home screen. Only let go when you see the home screen appear.

Sorry if I haven't made myself clear, what I mean is if it's possible to drag an icon on top of another so they switch places.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
as far as I know it is only possible in the TouchWiz App Launcher (when you are in the edit mode),
but you can't change places on the homescreen like on the iPhone. (not with standart launcher)
This was something I was surprised by as well... it's like having one of those puzzle sliders at times to get everything where I want it!

Even more annoying to me is the fact, that folders don't close when the home button is pressed / an app is launched. I think that's quite irritating...Oo

What do you mean by the "menu bar"?
I guess he's talking about the bar at the bottom.
Yes, it's possible!
Press the Applications icon at the bottom, then press the menu button, press on edit, and you are now able to drag new icons to the bottom bar.
Thank you!
I gotta say... I REALLY, REALLY LOVE THIS PHONE!
After discovering this, I'm not gonna change my launcher yet, I got a paid version of LauncherPro, but i like the horizontal scrolling in the appdrawer.

Nope. This is ss by taine0 and doesn't have miui. The indicators are photoshopped to the wallpaper and changed using MLW.

Than why don't you ask taine0? You know the guy who posted the screenshot? Oh and technically that's not a dock, that's the background for the screen indicator.
i think you need to create several different background, each indicated the change for desktop indicator then you can use MLW to make different wallpaper for your home screen. After that you just need to add widget, icons or others element.
i think its all you need to do or you can ask taine0 if you still wondering
