does anyone know how to get an android device to look like this? or can someone point in the direction cause i have no idea on what to search for.
i tried making similar size icons in PS but they wont work on launcher pro.

Looks like Launcher 7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1025667
You need another app, links in there should help.
You can also use desktop visualizer to get the sizes right (1*2, 3*1, etc).
While you can use launcher 7 or something similar, if you want to keep launcherpro you'll need to use desktop visualizer.
Ok so how do I resize now? I dl the resize image app but its not letting me use the addon?

You shouldn't need to crop or resize the images, just download some of these types of icons that others have made, they're already sized properly. Then add a desktop visualizer widget - choose the size that corresponds to the image you want. Make sure you don't get horizontal/vertical sizes mixed up. Then once the widget is added, tap on it & it will take you to the screen to set it up. Choose your icon, then choose what it launches (shortcuts are under "other", apps under applications). To get the look right, I'd clear the text so there's not a label randomly on your image. Choose the highlight style then "ok".
If you need help finding icons to use, do a search on xda. If you can't find any, send me a pm and I'll link you to them/send you some.
thanks to you all for the help, it is much appreciated.
i did find a link that gave me the dimensions for the icons. and this is what i came up with.
still a work in progress (dont really like the gaps between the vertical icons have to widen) but i like it so far and i have to stop for the night, figured id share before going to sleep.
thanks again

Here's a whole bunch of them. Some are for small icons in sliding panels. others are for the cmyapplication or cmyprograms panel.
The coreplayer one may look goofy here, thats because the blue color is also transparent too. here's a screeshot of the icon in use:

Wallpaper Collectors
Here are a few of mine.
I did a search and continue to look around, but can't seem to find the right one.
I have an image that I wish to use as a background. However, the problem is, it seems to crop down the image (select a part I wish to use as my background). I don't want to crop it down. I want to use the full scale of the image. Is there anyway for me to do this? Or, do I have to modify it on Photoshop so it fits perfectly fine on My Touch G3 phone.
I hope someone is willing to resolve this issue for me and/or point me to the right direction.
if you post the wallpaper i will resize it for you
Can you tell me the dimension?

There it is.
Try This
Try searching this site for the G1 template. I found it about a year ago. It opens up in Photoshop, but once you open it up, you place your picture in the template and it fits perfectly on your phone. Works for G1 and mytouch.
If I'm correct, you'll need a wallpaper size of 640x480 pixels and any multiples of that should also work. Bottom line, you should get a wallpaper with a 4:3 ratio. Correct me if i'm wrong though
isnt there anyay to set wllpaper of 360*480 so that the wallpaper doesnt scroll and set fixed?
no1???????
Use the app, Wallpaper Set and Save, just select the image and it makes it the wallpaper

This is the weather app and beautiful widget extracted from the acer liquid rom dump.

thx...gonna check it out
can you post up some screenshots of these widgets.
thanks
Where do you set your location? It's nice weather in Washington, but what do I care?
Widget looks 4x1, but its really 4x4.
Unable to change from Wash, pressing menu from the settings screen only brings up 'about'
Even if I could correct the city, the 4x4 is annoying.
same here..couldnt change location

Not sure why you guys are not able to change the location. The only thing I did was remove the widget and then re add it. I then was prompted to insert my location. Still, I doubt I will use it since I lose space on my screen.
Thanks for the tip that I should have tried anyway as I was about to also post the same issue. But now I have to find out how to add my location as it is in not in the index. Anyone know how to add city to the index?
Does it not have a search box above the list of locations? That's how I had to do mine.
obviously it does but my city is not in the index
Wow, that is very odd. Where I am currently staying is pretty much the land of the forgotten (middle of the desert) and I was still able to pull up info by zip code.
To change the location, you'll have to first remove the widget from screen then re-add it. At the re-adding, it'll ask you for the location.
You might have to do this for more than once in order to activate its setup screen.
Tested, removed and added again Beautiful widget
How can I remove a weather widget from my screem??
thanks
I ran this on my Droid Incredible and it worked. I love the look of the widget but the damn thing is off by 23 degrees.
Here's a picture of my home screen. I like to keep things simple. It's the adw minimalist homescreen. I was wondering if there was a way to get the battery color to not be green.
I was looking at some themes, but didn't want to download the entire theme to just get the status bar.
Is there a theme out there that's super simple like my homescreen?

Oops, hit the thanks button instead of quote. So I'm not sure if there is a like what you want, but the status bar can be modified by changing the framework-res.jar file. If you find a theme with a battery you like, you can grab those images from the framework-res.jar in it to mod your own. (You'll have to search to see which files they are---I'm not a big modder of the file myself.)
Alternatively, you can try using the online kitchen at this site: http://circle.glx.nl/. They allow you to select from a wide variety of battery types where you can customize the color scheme. They also allow you to modify other elements of your framework. After you make your selections, you just upload your existing framework-res.jar and download the one they modify for you. If all you want is to change your battery icon, this is probably your best bet.
EDIT: An alternative home launcher must be installed to take advantage of the "Activities" option. I have LauncherPro installed.
This is a simple workaround for those of us who have had a problem with the World Clock disappearing from the app drawer...I have attacthed the apk if you can't find it on your system!
First-Verify that Htc Clock is installed by performing a Google search with the search soft key (This is the only way it will work)...

Second-Long press any home screen and tap shortcut...
Third-Tap Activities (It may take a few seconds to load)...
Fourth-Tap Clock...
Fifth-Tap WorldClockTabControl...
Sixth-Place Clock Shortcut on any screen and enjoy

I don't think it's ever been in my app drawer. You get to it by tapping on a widget on the homescreen.
And for your workaround, you need LauncherPro installed. It does not have to be the launcher you are using. The "activities" is a LP feature, not a sense one.
I've only had this phone a couple of weeks but I remember when I first got it there was a shortcut in the app drawer....however, a few days later i recieved and OTA so maybe that's why it disappeared. Either way, this may help someone find a quicker way to get up for work in the mornings
Please read the second part of my post. You left something out of your instructions.
oops....your are very correct. forgot all about that part
This method does not work for me (the apk fails to instal). Does the phone have to be rooted?
I messed up again. Wrong apk. Bear with me, I'm still learning. Lol
I'm away from my computer for the nxt couple of days, send me a pm and I'll email you my old desk clock to use untill I can post the correct apk.
In the meantime you can always access deskclock by tapping the time on clock widget
