Hey guys.
Just thought I'd share a few classic rock wallpapers I made. Nothing special at all, but they look pretty good on the phone, and they are optimized for desktops with a large widget such as Sense(like) clock.

mmmmmm.... very nice!
Thanks HG!
Any chance you would do one for Phish? All black with the small colored logo? probably not your style, but I would be very grateful.
Sure man.
I am a bit of a Dead Head, but have never really listened to Phish. I'll have to check 'em out.
Let me see what I can whoop up.

What color did you want the background to be? Do you want it a gradient that fades to white?
Thanks Sean. BTW, Floyd is my all-time favorite group.
D'OH!!! I just read your original post. Working on it now.
Love the zepplin one might a get a it from you?

Yeah man! You should be able to just save it from my original post. Just right click and save. If that doesn't work out, let me know and I'll e-mail it to ya.
Just saw you were in Asheville. I'm in Raleigh. Asheville is the best city, ever.
Phish is amazing. I've seen them 54 times, and that is not nearly enough.
All black, pitch black background, with a small colorful phish logo. I'll try and find one:
http://drygoods.phish.com/Product.aspx?cp=773_6268&pc=PHAS06
it would be awesome multicolored, but red would be cool too.
Awesome man!
Ok...Here's a first attempt. Don't be shy to tell me if you don't like it. I'll keep at it if we need to.
Yeah, Asheville ROCKS man. Especially if you like good a music scene.
Guys, I would also use a wallpaper applying app like Wallpaper Set and Save, so that the image will not be stretched or compressed.
Wallpaper Set and Save
These wallpapers look better on the phone, than they do in a browser preview.
Holy $hit, that's EXACTLY what I had in my mind.
Only thing I could say current, which is beyond you, it's the piv, it's not the highest quality, and the upper left corner looks lifted up. Again, that's just because the poor images online.
Can't believe how spot on you were with what I was looking for, nice work man.I'm rocking it now.

Hey mbrando, update the first post- that way we don't have to look all over the thread for the wallpapers. Makes it easier for everyone [also for people that like your work to follow you too!]
Just a suggestion.
Haha...Right on. Let's keep searching for a better logo and I'll hook it up. When you say the corner is lifted up, do you mean by the bubbles? I think that's the 2nd row of bubbles? Not sure tho.
I attached the logo I used. Let me know. I am hard headed enough to keep at it 'til it's what you wanted.
Glad you like!
Thanks HG. Will do. I'm still a nit of a n00b. I welcome the wisdom.
Anyone using this? And what are your thoughts? It looks really nice but looks like a memory hog!
I bought if shortly after reading about it on engadget. I will tell you this. I was in the world of updating and changing my look on my phone almost weekly. After putting this Launcher on I found what could possibly be the last launcher I will ever use or need. It is extremely fluid, not to mention the eye candy involved. The way you can cleverly add new pages whenever and wherever you want is plain awesome. I have yet to find any true gripes other than it does not sync facebook pictures in your contact list to its widgets. So the events widget, messaging and contacts folder were a bit of an annoyance. Other than that very solid and stable. Hope this helps. And if you have any questions let me know.
Check this thread:

I use it and love it. By far the best eye candy. Though I miss a few things, like landscape mode and animated wallpapers. It's not perfect, but for the looks it's the best.
I'm seeing a lot of people liking this spb shell 3d...and am wondering if I missed anything when I gave it a try and returned within the 15 minutes. The things I couldn't find that I was expecting from being a long time user of spb shell on Windows Mobile, were a true contacts panel, where you can change the arrangement, size, action etc. of your favorite contacts or scroll through their pictures carousel style. With is actually being called '3D' it would be more likely this is an option and I just missed it. Can you easily switch between a 'Home' and 'Pro' set of panels?
I use it and love it too. Great speed and effects. Well worth the $$ to me.
Its' so fast and clean, I can't go back to anything else. Definitely worth all the money.

I like it, but it doesn't support live wall papers and it needs more customization options.

Agreed
Still the best I have used and worth the $15 but lacking landscape and live wallpaper. Prolly fixed in the next release
Eh couldn't find out how to get rid of the Flickr widget thing, plus it doesn't look to great with GreyBlur :/
I can't believe i paid 15 bucks for this =/
I have the new update and i'm rooted. I've been on stock for the past 5 days(waiting on gingerblur 3.0) I opted to try this out yesterday in place of stock.
After about 30 minutes I wanted to kill myself.
this thing is so bland!

I could care less for the look (I prefer MIUI & HTC Sense design so color me bias) but I want the fillings (features it brings).
The owner should dump the system here at XDA...

Looks like it was most likely legit....seeing as how it was remotely wiped.

I don't buy it... The story is a little too unbelievable, and it looks too much like the Icecream launcher that was available for download here last week. Possibly a skinned version.

Convenient that.
I call fake. The About screen strangely lists "Icecream Sandwich", but on every Android I've played with it would list the numerical designator (such as "2.3.4"). Things also appear more skinned than stock (I would hope Google has a bit better sense of graphic design than what I'm seeing there).

If that was real ICS, you think HTC is going to switch desktops from the HTC Sense one to the ICS one?
I doubt it but it would be cool to see them giving an option.
SUCH BS..
They wouldn't wipe it, they'd send out corporate security to buy the phone back and investigate the theft...
Wow. SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT. Real or not, widgets in the app drawer is nice. Also the home button feature is swagged out. I cant imagine CM8.
#SWAG!!!
Just wanted to share this with everyone. Nice alternative to Nova Launcher, there's the option to hide apps w/o paying for the app (for now). There are a few hiccups here and there, but generally I must say it is considerably smoother than Nova overall. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1452663

I had seen this one before but for some reason never downloaded it. Don't know what was holding me back. Hmm. Oh well. Thanks for the recommendation. Gonna play around with it for a while and see if it can take down Nova as my launcher of choice.
The appdrawer is considerably smoother than nova, as well as the home screen. There are some nice featues on this launcher for sure, and the hide apps. I already bought nova before I saw the update, but oh well $4 is just $4 . There is some lag in the widgets section with some transitions, but I'm sure the dev will fix it eventually.

I was just about to edit my post and say that the scrolling is noticeably smoother. I'm diggin this one. Plus the Apex Menu is a nice touch since I have Swipe Down to show that menu. I can then change my wallpaper or add a widget from there. Don't know why, but long pressing to add a widget annoys me lol and I never really use the in-drawer widget selector as much as I thought I would. I paid for Nova, too, but don't really mind since I did it more to help the dev out.
Again, thanks for the rec! This is nice
EDIT: Oh, and the infinite scroll in the app drawer...biiiiig bonus for me.
I really am digging the double tap to bring up the menu. But I can confirm it's just the software, friends Gnex also has the same lag that I do.
This launcher is really nice. I think it might take down Nova after all. It has what I need on the phone. Gonna keep an eye on that thread and might start using it on my Prime soon, too.

Yeah I already took down Nova and uninstalled. Hopefully it'll be smoother in the future, but the homescreens and the app drawer with no lag, with all the features Apex = win. I'm pretty stoked for the new Prime that's coming out, thinking about picking it up.

That'll be a damn nice device. I freakin love my Prime. Probably my favorite piece of technology I've purchased in a while

Oh yes. Have a 64gb Prime in Grey. It's beautiful and so damn smooth. Ordered it in November, got it in Feb.
EDIT: Also, if GPS isn't a concern for you, I would purchase a Prime now. The next one will just have the GPS fix and a better resolution screen, but it would be hard to tell the upgrade in screen on a screen this small. I don't use GPS on my Prime, so this thing is perfect for me.

The next one coming out I think will have 1920 x 1200 and the wifi/gps issues will be scratched off. Not sure when it's coming.. But I want one.

Yeah, my wifi was never an issue for me, but my GPS will only work if I'm standing still. I just don't use it anyway, so it's no concern to me and the $100 extra isn't enough to make me want the slightly better screen. I think that one is supposed to be out late this year. Then again, that's what ASUS said about this Prime and it took almost 4 months for me to get mine. Hopefully they learned their lesson and you can actually get it when you order it.

Thanks for posting. This thing is awesome.
Apex Launcher is sweet. I had to change my minimum scrolling time from zero to like 7 to get it scroll quickly though.
On a side note. Does anyone know if Anddoes will fix Fancy Widgets to fit our Rezound screens correctly? The flip clock doesn't size correctly on our devices.

Not too sure if they resized the widgets. But yeah If ind that if the timer is at 0 the desktop seems kinda laggy. I wonder the fps of both launchers on the home screen when it comes to scrolling through screens. ICS claims it has it up to 60.. but it seems like it's 30 fps, that or my eyes are just too picky . Hopefully the developer will address the issues w/ homescreen smoothness.
Im not sure if you guys have come across this site but take a look at it. I know it for about a year but went back to it. Try some of these customization out. Because im limited with sense, I went Paranoid android. Join and see what you like and also post below

Some great looking designs on there. Love the 8-bit donkey Kong and red/black boombox, looks like the Nintendo virtual gear laser thing. Can't remember technical term for that, want to say monochrome but that's not it.
Thanks for the link though. Have to try out some of those theming apps.
Yeah its a great site, some guy came up with an insane holographic style UI. He posted everything he used to design it but it looks like more trouble for me then its worth lol

Does CM10 have the red mono color like cm7 used to? Think they had green and blue as well. Thought it was a nice addition. Gets old after a day or so. People will still be all like how u do that? Nice way to get girls to talk to u. Well, better than pooping your pants and asking them if they smell that. That's my personal fave. Surprisingly it doesn't work too well.
