Get a bunch of text based icons and something like Nova Launcher that will let you change the icons to the text ones.
Or...
Or download the Simple Text app and the Desktop Visualiser app from Market and get text icons on stock launcher home screen...

I used Better Cut and Folder Organizer to make it. Just do a long press on your home screen and choose shortcut, the better cut and folder organizer options will be there.
where did you get the word icons from?
I would like to know the name of the word icons used on the homescreen as well
I got them from here. He does ask for a small donation but it is well worth it. He even made me some custom icons.
long press on the icon you want to change. choose change icon, custom icon.
can someone tell me the easiest way to change the app icons in the app drawer? i already know how to change the shortcut icons but it would be nice if i could do this

Try looking Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912117
the basic concept:
- pull the apks you want to edit the icons for
- use an available tool to decompile the apk
- edit appropriate PNGs
- compile apk and push it back to your phone.. after a reboot (and fixing permissions if necessary), you should have a fancy new icon.
additionally, any launcher with a theme engine should be able to change app icons... I actually prefer this method with ADW ex, it's faster and much easier to clean up if I screw something up.

That looks blue to me.
Either way you need open up the apk in question and search out the image used for the widget, then edit it to suit.
You'll probably find it in res/drawable-hdmi/
Sorry if this is a dumb question.. I have go launcher ex, and when i'm looking for new themes, I keep seeing a wallpaper that I believe has the date on it, in big numbers.. I included some screenshots of what i'm talking about.. But I have no clue how to get that wallpaper.. Or the date or whatever the big numbers represent. Is it a widget? Or a certain setting in the app? Can someone let me know how I do this? Please!!

The large numbers are for the time, not the date. I use this all the time because it looks great

This is one of the screens on my homescreen:

As you can see at the bottom in the dock, the text are zooper widgets that simply switch to the specific page in the nova launcher.
However, I want there to be some kind of indication that I am on the relevant page after clicking it, is there any way I can achieve this?
I was hoping there would be some kind of 'onclick' action that would let me switch the page AND change the font colour or something.
Also, when I press them, the text doesn't highlight like when I select any item on the desktop (icons etc). Is there any way to change this?
Thanks in advance.
This zooper widgets arent static there is a set of them on every page. So you can edit the widget on the specific page to show an indicator. Change the font or make a button just what u want.
