With default launcher it is, when changing wallpaper you get to choose lockscreen, home screen or both.

I'm using the Apex launcher, so that basically means it's not possible to choose your own lockscreen wallpaper

If you temporarily set mi launcher and change the lockscreen wallpaper, isn't it still there when you change to apex? Haven't tried it myself.

Settings-->Lock screen-->Wallpaper, left side.
Works for me in Nova.

how to overlap widgets

Anyone here can guide me how to overlap those widgets in the desktop? i tried to overlap them but it still sticks with the grid.. im using ADW (CyanogenMOD 6.1.0 RC2)
I want to make a new theme just you guys
i already read [HOW-TO]Resize your widgets using LPP | Updated 01 Dec still i have the same results.. i already increase my rows and columns to 8x8 still no effect...
bump? any here?
With launcher pro plus, If you place a widget then pick it up and drop it back where it was to resize it you should be able to drag the resize corner over another widget.
aahh so that's only possible with Launcher Pro?
Yeah, its exploiting how LPP does widget resizing.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
aww.. i think i need to change to LPP and uninstall ADW hehehe!
Any other way?
How about GO Launcher? Is there any other way to achieve the same effect? I really like GO Launcher and don't wanna switch.. there's gotta be a way.
You can do this in ADW Ex but I'm not sure about the free version. In settings there's an option to "overlap widgets"
I was able to do a bit of overlapping (not so much) using ADWlauncherEX, using Zoom custom widgets. The upper part of this screenshot is actually 6 zoom widgets..

Does anyone know how he got that layout along with those icons?
I'm pretty sure he said most/all of it he photoshopped/embedded into the wallpaper. and he used transparent icons with desktop visualizer (widgets) to click on the text. most likely.

i agree... seems the most plausible way to do it
Yes, it's all embedded in the wallpaper. I remember this layout from the screenshot thread here. The user even posted his modded wallpapers for download at some point, if I remember correctly.
Edit: I found his posting for you, where he shared the psd file for his wallpaper

[Q] Custom Dock Bar notifications?

I am currently using ADWLauncher with the main dock bar off(extended desktop) and using the Hidden Dockbar. I was wondering if an app exists that lets you create custom notifications for your dock bar. I searched all through ADW but did not see an option for it.
I would love to be able to have a custom notification font size/type.
Thanks in advance.
(ex: If I have two SMS messages a number 2 will show in the column/row corner above text messages.)

There's an app in the market ADWNotifier. I've been using it for a while and it works great. I think you have to have EX version of Launcher, but I believe the Notifier is free.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.adw.launcher.notifications&feature=search_result
Thanks for the quick reply. I tried that app out and it does work great. Only thing is they use the bubble and only bubble. Are there any other apps that are more customizable?
If not ill stick with ADW Notifier.
Hi!
If I remember correctly, there only is the bubble, but you can customize it's color and size.
hmm, I know I have seen people them in custom themes or whatnot. I guess the next question is how do i replace it manually?

. that is how it's displayed on the phone app drawer/desktop. i want a different icon.
If its ADW then you can just change it to a custom icon simply by long pressing on it and selecting to change it or something. I think.

[Q- MIUI] Changing application/icon In Launcher.

So I'm using Illest Icons2, and the icon for the default MIUI camera app is really nice, but I don't use that app.
I use Vignette and there's not a custom icon for that app.
How would I go about changing the mtz to set the icon for the default camera, to Vignette, so I can have it on the homescreen without it looking out of place?

Steps 1 through 4 can be avoided if you just review the icons in
/data/system/customized_icons_1/
essentially all non-themed apps have an icon present in here.
Sorry to ring a dead topic back to life, but would this also apply to replacing one non-themed icon with a themed one? Like the Opera mini app with the stock browser's icon...
