I want to use launcher pro but im quite confused on how to theme it and where i can find themes too. If someone can aid me that would be wonderful. Thanks

Certain aspects of Launcher Pro are not that theme-able for noobs. For example, the widget backgrounds are not png images but hard coded colors. However, XDA member Signals23 has put together several themes and updates them regularly. Here is the link:

Also, if you check out the forums over at launcherpro there are a few others floating around. I know Benny879 from Droidforums has put together a Gingerbread theme and also a Galaxy S theme for Launcher Pro.

Ok, I got the themes thing down. Now I'm seeing different lock screens, different homescreen menus, as far as the bottom of the screen with phone, internet, mail and things like that. How can I get the ones I'm liking?

you can also flash themes. those change lockscreens, and other non-apk things that theme chooser can't. not sure what ur talking about 'bottom of the screen'.
I just flashed cyanogenmod and at the bottom of the main screen I have a phone icon, menu icon and the internet icon. But I've seen others that have phone, Gmail, internet and a few others

That is all in the settings of the launcher you are using. I'm using launcher pro and have a different layout with the matted blues theme. Lock screen is widgetlocker. (Highly recommend) With battery status widget and minimal text widget.
I think you're talking about docks, widgetlocker themes, and whatnot. These aren't included in themes, people gather them from different places and put them together.
Depending on what home app you're using, you may be able to change the dock background. All home replacement apps (at least the major, reputable ones) allow for changing of dock icons. Head over to the Android Themes section and check out the stuff there. The "Post Your Homescreen" thread would be a good place to look and get ideas. I'm sure there's some noob guide to theming.
If you want your lockscreen to look like the screenshots you see, get Widgetlocker. It's around $2, but more than worth it. There's a thread of themes to change your sliders, check it out if you decide to buy the app. Also check out the FAQ thread for WidgetLocker to help you figure it out.
The three most popular home replacement apps are LauncherPro/LauncherPro Plus, ADW Launcher/ADW Ex, and Go Launcher Ex. My personal favorite is ADW Ex, a lot of people are die-hard LP+ users. I personally don't care for Go, it felt kind of clunky and tacky to me, but a lot of people like it because it has the features of paid launchers for free.
All of the home apps I mentioned allow for changing the dock background except for the free ADW (as far as I know). You can find dock backgrounds and icons here on xda in the themes section.
Have fun!

And here are the icons if you want to use them I did not make these. All credit goes to ManUp. He did a great job on them. Do not flash this zip, just open it up and the icons will be there.

Not at all, actually I was gonna ask you where you got the 960*800 MB wall. When I was on CM7, I would only run the nightlies that Matted Blues was compatible with... absolutely my favorite theme evar. The only version of that wallpaper I could find was too small, you mind attaching it for me?
I wear dresses and wax my eyebrows, but that doesn't make Matted Blues girly

Lol. I got them from the MB thread. I think jabba updated the wallpaper zip when he put it in the market. Has a few new ones also.

I have the adw ex and I was just wondering how do you get the original sense clocks to work with it? I seen on the market, on the adw screenshots, the person has original stock operational 2.3.3 sense widgets! I was just wondering, how do I go about doing that myself

Beautiful or fancy widgets it is in the market both have sense like clocks

Sense widgets can only be used in the Sense Rosie. There are other lookalike available in the Market though

I looked at some videos of launcher pro and it seems like somehow the two are very similar but ADW has less features apparently

Not really. ADW (especially the EX) is updated more often than Launcher Pro and has many themes! It has a lot of added functionality, but some people prefer Launcher Pro because of simplicity and widgets in the Plus version.
Launcher Pro hasn't really been updated in a long while, mostly because there isn't really anything to complain about. ADW EX used to be buggy in its first few releases, but it has become quite stable. I would try both of them, play around with them both. No harm in doing so
Launcher pro doesn't really have the ability to add themes though! I'm using it now and for some reason I can't even change the dock bar like I could with ease in ADW EX

Launcher Pro
Launcher Pro Plus has the LP widgets. They can be themed. There are theme packs that include a Sense-like clock widget
How do I get the dock bars?
Sent From KaoMinerva
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if anyone knew if this themed LauncherPro dock bar for myna's Warm twopointtwo was available to use in the ADW EX launcher. I like the ADW launcher better but love the layout of this dock. I think I could probably be fine with just the icons too. Any ideas?
Thx
I only got a sec, but look around at virusrom .com. check the downloads folder. He used to have a launcher pro with this dock. If you like LP. It may still be there. It's been a while.

Thanks for the feedback.
Actually I am looking for this type of launcher for ADW EX.
