Launcher pro or ADW text icons

I've seen a few people in the show us your homescreen thread who have text icons for the apps in their dock, I.e. sms, phone, net etc. Can anyone point me in the right direction to getting them? I have both adw and launcher pro plus so either would be good(although my preference would be for adw) thanks in advance.

Look in the Market under ( A home/ Open Home Simple theme)
Will I be able to use those icons in either launcher pro or adw? Or will I need panda or open home to use it?

You might be talking about "dreamlyfe design lpt" (try googling it).
I wish I can put up links but as a new use here, I'm not allowed, "yet".

Also, in addition to tallmin, search for simptext here on xda. Mine are inspired by both
Let me know if you want me to u/l the ones I've got
I like the look of your icons, the are very clean....if you could upload them that would be amazing

Checkout the icons in my sig.
Nice work bro, now I have many options, lol....would you guys know how to use custom icons for launcher pro (not in the dock but everywhere else?) I really like launcher pro but adw allows you to customize all the icons/theme so that's what I'm using for now
Wow I'm really diggin the green and red sets that you uploaded, decal. Not necessarily a big fan of either colors (i'm more of a blue guy myself but that can easily be changed) but I think it's the fact that I can actually read them without squinting! lol.
Yeah if you have photo shop you can also make these. I took the launcher pro icons and opened them and made them black to go with my dark theme.

I am using these icons: http://digitalstylewars.com/?page_id=209
with Launcher Pro. Launcher Pro also lets you set custom icons. Just do the following:
1 - Menu->Add or long-press the screen to choose "Shortcuts"
2 - Choose "Applications"
3 - Choose an app.
4 - Touch the icon and choose any of the text icons you have downloaded.

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

[REQUESTS] Post your icon requests here

Starting a thread for custom icon requests. Let me know what you want, or others can contribute.
I've been looking for a Wordfeud icon that matches these MetroStation icons. Preferably in white.
Thanks

How's this?
Grab the first image, its all white
Perfect. Thanks a lot
With the phone on the dash the 3G & 4G icons are so fine one needs to do more than just glance.
I need anything better. Just a bold 4 without the G would be OK with me.
Thanks
I would like an icon set that was themed as the periodic table of the elements.
Im not sure if some made this or can help me put but the green SMS app icon I would like to change the color, thank u in advanced

I like the inverted messaging apps. In the mms he darkened the MMS icon. The people app is work in progress but workng fine. The Gmail is done.
Have a look. There are links to the apps in my sig.
Some of the users wanted the green back so if her changed it and you want the version with the black one PM me.
Honestly, I know I'm not the only one that has thought if this, but if one if the icons was a weed leaf.... I bet you'd get alot of downloads and really blow ppl away with the freedom of open source.

[HELP] Sense App Drawer Transparent

What values would i have to change to make the app drawer in our SENSE launcher transparent?
Can someone please teach me step by step?
i don't believe anyone has figured this out yet
I'm waiting for a semi transparent appdrawer.. But i guess it's pretty difficult
Yeah, no one I know of has found it yet. I've done tons of background changes, additions, redirecting. Nothing works yet. I've been thru about half of the Smali in Rosie looking for a hack, but no luck yet. Hopefully soon someone can crack it, its one of my favorite mods as well.

I understand, but it is very difficult, for the moment, find that file. in the meantime if you want to have transparency, I suggested an (valid) alternative.

Stock Theme Store Question

Hopefully this is the right place for this thread....
I feel like I am looking for something so basic and I can't believe I cant find what I am looking for. I really just want a simple black and white theme for my Note 5.
In a perfect situation I would really just like the stock icons but all of the Headers and menus and sliders have a black and white theme to them. In a realistic world I would be fine if the icon pack was changed, but I just cant find anything this simple. All of them in the theme store try to do way too much, and many of the custom ones in the XDA Theme threads are really amazing, just way more than I am looking for. Have you seen any that seem to fit what I am looking for?
We have the same problem. I have been looking for a simple black theme for awhile now.

Thanks for the response. White Tiger is a good example of trying to do too much, imo. Minu white dark has an error where notifications appear as white on white text, and they haven't fixed it yet....I hadn't seen minu white, so I'll give that one a run. Thanks!
Minu white is really close....the problem is that all of the shortcut text is black, so you need to have a light or white background....I like everything else on this theme well enough, but wish I could use a dark background...

Another one that is close, it has a greenish accent color instead of white. Otherwise it would be perfect, but as it is it is just close for me...
If you are still interested, I found one called "Fantasy_Dark_V2" that is ok. It changes the default icons, but they arent too annoying. Also, it is like $2 so there is that as well....still staying hopeful that I will find one!!
