New ICS/Jelly Bean Update: Now Atom Launcher new thread guess im just bumping this thread because it's no longer relevant which makes no sense i guess ...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I recently discovered the best launcher for Android: Nemus Launcher. I didn't develop this launcher, I am just attempting to spread the word about this wonderful lightweight launcher. It is as fast as Zeam and as smooth as 360 Launcher in my opinion, but it offers 9 homescreens, scrollable widget support, and resizable widgets. It seems to get updated pretty often, but there isn't much info on the dev's site linked in the market. Its made by the same dev as Regina launcher (NemusTech, I think they are Korean).
Features (Version 1.6.0, from 02-23-12):
- Super Lightweight Memory Usage (4.5mb)
- Uber-Smooth Response
- Unique Folder System - Folders in Drawer, Batch Add Apps, Custom Views on Homescreen, A-Z Sorting, Custom Colors
- Drawer: Hide Apps and Sorting Options
- Scrollable + Resizable Widgets
- Custom Grids
- Scrolling Dockbar
- Up to 9 Screens (Who really needs more than that with all the shortcut options?)
- Frequent Updates (latest as of 02-23-12)
- A good ammount of customization options
- Zip Theme and SSkin Theme Support (APK Coming Soon)
- Easy App finding/management
- Hiding system status bar with gesture
- Missed Call & Received SMS badge display
- Workspace and app menu switchers (screen preview)
- Highlight recently used apps
- App-Hide & Screen-Lock
v1.6.1:
New : Dock page count customization
New : Show/Hide page indicator
New : Enable/Disable badge display
Change : Launcher settings re-organized
Improve : Faster response of page indicator when scrolling
Fix : Transparent folders after importing home screen from other launchers
Localization : Italian, Spanish(es_ES, es_US, es_MX), Czech, Turkish, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Portuguese(pt_BR), Russian, Japanese, Hungarian, Persian language updated
In Progress:
- Home screen scroll performance
- Page indicator hiding
Themes:
FishNChips Neon Blue (credit: sssingletrack, n4y4nrules, raverrr from Android @ MoDaCo)
More themes (a lot are paid, some are free) are available through the SSkin Theme Shop (the app is painfully slow for me)
Also, maybe this thread will stimulate some theme development. It uses SSKIN themes, which I learned a little bit about on their (Korean) site:

Wiki w/ Theme Sample and Guidelines
There is a sample theme on here that looks like it has a ICS look to it. I will check it out when I get a chance.
There are more themes in this thread, just search
