All posts on this page are "thanks", "great thread" etc, and not that interesting to read.

When I see there's a new post in the thread, I hope it's something meaningful.

I know this post isn't any better, but please..

Observing the number of posts the poster has is a clue - many are trying to get past their 10 required posts before they can get into the development sections. I agree, there's a thanks button and it should be used more...

Aw

I tried flashing Revolution_Transparent_apps.zip and got this:

Installing update...
Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.
Amend scripting was deprecated in Android 1.5
Please switch to Edify scripting to create working update zip packages.
Installation aborted.

:(

Some launchers you can edit the "butons" by changing the icon.
With some amagination you can create your own.

As you can see i greated my own, the numbers on the clock and the smal bleu light on the buttons also my own. ( Bleu is on, red is of ).
In Beautiful widgets you can change some images, so i did.
The Launcher i use is Launcher pro.

No. I did the mistake as well and named the folder "mclock" and not "mClock".
But it is case sensitive, so be sure to name the folder "mClock" and then unzip in MIUI-revamped as described on deviant art.

- Extract the .zip content into this folder (path
to xml files and other stuff need to be "/
sdcard/mClock/MIUI- Revamped/")
- Add a 4x2 mClock widget on your
homescreen
- Hit "Xml Template" in the mClock settings
- go to "/sdcard/mClock/MIUI -Revamped/" and
select desired clock .xml file

    NOTE: I've noticed that people have began to repost this thread on other forums. While this normally does not bother me, this was not a sole work and many have contributed to this. So if you have reposted this, please give credit.

    One of the greatest strength of Android is user customization. This is what makes our favorite OS unique. No two homescreen are alike. Widgets, wallpapers, and icons, almost everything you see can be replaced, themed and modified. However, the number of themes and widget are many that it becomes daunting and a little bit intimidating. So without further ado, this thread will help you maximize your ability to theme and create your very own take on the Android experience. Enjoy!

    Ever wonder how to make your Android home screen look like this?

    This thread is dedicated to show you how widgets can help create a look to your homescreen. Keep in mind that some might not be free and some have been modded (transparency, color changes etc.) to look different from the original.

    ICONS

    There are many icons lying around the internet. These are my favorite as they give the phone a minimalist look like so:

    Launcher

    There are a number of launcher available but the two most popular are ADW launcher and launcher pro.

    This is a beautiful battery widget, can you link me to it?

    Here you are, someone answered this before...

    No real "Guide" needed, download this font. http://img.dafont.com/dl/?f=barcode_font

    unzip it to any directory on your SDcard (I used the MinimalisticTextPreferences directory that the program uses to store custom widgets you've made)

    Long press screen, select "Widget">Minimalistic Text 4x2 (hor) or whatever size you want.

    in Minimalistic Text options, to all the way down to Global Settings, scroll to "Font Folder" and select the directory on your SDCard that has the barcode font. press back to go back to the widget setup screen, in the 3 text fields at the top select "Font Family" and you should see Barcode font in the option. once you have it selected for all 3 text fields just make up what you want it to do, clock, battery, date, etc.

    Apparently this clock is very appreciated, unfortunately it's no longer in the market and after a few requests here on xda, I'll just post it here, so that everybody is free to download this clock
