Post your Photon Home Screen! - Motorola Photon 4G

This is a thread to post the home screens on your new Photon 4G (which I hope to be getting very soon). Let everyone see how you sport your phone!
Please include details about the wallpaper, widgets and apps that you use on your phone so the thread doesn't get clogged up with repetitive questions.
Thanks! So now let's see what you've got!
To take screenshots with having root access, use mindphaze's ScreenGrab app. (thanks to Bandage for the tip)

How do I take a screenshot without having root access?

You could try this app that works for the Motorola Atrix. Post back to let us know if it works for you.

Thank you sir. The app works great on my phone, however I had to go into the screen grabber's advanced settings page and uncheck root access.

Cant find a wallpaper I like. This one is good, but I want something with more color.

Noticed no stock launchers
I see that almost no one keeps the motorola launcher.
I really like Go Launcher. It makes it easier to replace my Evo because of the calendar widget. Tonight I'm going to give SPB's launcher a whirl too, so to speak.

Hey ballerx.....where did you get the sense clock from?
You guys liking the phone? How does it compare to the evo 4g.....I just might get this beauty if they get a permanent root on this thing.

VDub lets play some brink sometime lol
I'm kinda shocked no one kept the stock launcher as vanstrien said. I actually like it but kinda wish we had the standard launcher...anyone try to push or instal the motoblur launcher?

[REQ] Sense 3.0 Music Lover Skin (apk)

Can someone please post the APK for the Music Lover skin? I've tried installing it, but the one I've found will not show up in the skin picker. Why oh why did HTC leave out the option in the HTC Hub to download skins? So aggravating!

Thanks man, but I don't think this is it. I tried it, too, but it won't show in the skin picker. It looks like this one is from Sense 2.1. I need to figure out how to get it off a 3.0 rom.
Thanks for your help, though!

If you place an app on top of another, it'll create a folder that resembles iOS in a way.

Yup - its got a few little differences though - like the app menu icon on the right hand side which you dont seem to be able to move.
obviously other alternatives are apex/nova etc.
