Is there a way to make custom app shortcuts in Honeycomb? I've tried Better Cut, Any Cut, and Desktop Visualizer. The app icons always end up so small.
- Galaxy Tab 10.1
Then it's the icons itself. The desktop visualizer allows 4x4 which makes that pretty large even on a 10x10 screen

Desktop visualizer is the way to go for all customizations like this.
Desktop Visualizer

What size should they be?

Is it possible to do this? ADW for example does not resize them properly.
Launcherpro can resize. Paid version only though afaik

ADW (and ADW EX) can resize widgets too, but appear to just be capable of stretching widgets rather than resizing them using the widget's internal resizing capabilities.
For example: by default, the Accuweather.com widget is a 2x1 widget that you can resize in TouchWiz (e.g. to a 4x1 widget). Resizing the widget modifies the content that is displayed e.g. when you resize it from 2x1 to 4x1, it adds high/low temperature and a summary of the current conditions.
When you add the Accuweather.com widget in ADW, you get a pop-up asking what the dimensions of the widget are. If you choose 4x1, it simply stretches the 2x1 widget out.
Does Launcher Pro work the same as ADW in this regard? I've added screenshots so you can see what I mean.
No idea I dont use it. Stock touchwiz atm

Can anyone suggest a good app that will allow a user to change the icon for an app?
I was using ADW EX and could change the icons anytime thanks for the fantastic integrated editing features of the launcher. But I'm giving Sense a thorough test drive for the first time and really like it, so I'd like to use all the custom icons I bought from Tha Phlash.
Follow-up: Is there a way to add a fifth column and/or fifth row?
Desktop Visualizer, it only changes them on the home screens tho, not the app drawer

Thanks, guys. Desktop Visualizer worked perfectly.

Is there a way to change all the icons? App drawer included?
I've been using GO Launcher EX. I removed Sense, installed Ziggy's kernel, and installed ThaIconUltimate to change all my icons. It was a little sluggish at first, but it's running silky smooth ever since I flashed Ziggy's kernel.
In the screenshot attached, you'll see I have 5 icons across the bottom row, then 5 columns x 4 rows of icons on each screen. GO Launcher lets you customize how many rows/columns you'd like to add.
I'd like to change GOSms icon with the stock SMS app icon to put it on dock and replace the stock SMS app, how can I change an app icon with touchwitz? I'd change it because GOSms icon is smaller than other icons in the dock and it's very ugly
Desktop visualizer :good:
Thanks my friend! Very useful!
I know its not a direct answer to your question but you could try another launcher. Apex Launcher allows full control over icons and titles for every item on your home screens.
Forgive me for crashing the thread, but I also need some help changing icons. I want to change the dock icons (on stock Rom) and I am using apex launcher pro. On my HTC Sensation and apex launcher, all I need to do is long press the icon and I then have the option to change it, but when I long press on sgs, the only option I get is to remove app. I am sure it must be simple, can someone help me out. Thanks.
I feel a bit stupid now. After uninstalling all third party launchers and re-installing them, I now have all the correct options to edit the dock icons.

is there any way to change the stock icon in the touchwiz lock screen? I can use desktop visualizer to create the shortcut with new icon on the dock, but touchwiz lock screen icons I cannot change to customize.

i dont know of a way to set dock location but i just hide dock so my icons and widgets are the same location in portrait and landscape.
I use SSlauncher, which IMHO is the most customizable launcher. Icons can be placed anywhere you choose. Portrait or landscape mode, doesn't matter. Customization can be done by the pixel.

Not on stock ROM (unless they changed it along with the lockscreen widgets). I use Widgetlocker which lets you fully customize your lockscreen with sliders, widgets, wallpaper, wallpaper alpha, grid density etc..etc..etc..
Simple Image Wallpaper app lets you have different wallpapers for landscape, portrait, and lock screen.
