Did you do it on CM9, too? Or can I do it on a rooted Kindle with ADW launcher?
Thanks for pointing me to the hubs tutorial! Here's my screenshots!

this is where i learned, i didnt use all he did though.Adw ex,minimalistic text,simple text,glass widgets,apw widgets, multi live wallpaper all put together in a style called "hubs". There are some pretty good tutorials on you tube from other xda members on how to set up your tablet to look like this. Took me forever to set it up but I love the way it turned out

Yea you can use pretty much and kind of icon creators or widgets. The best launcher i've found though is adw ex because you can add launcher actions to screens. That seems to be the most important part of "hubs". Just check you tube for videos on how to set it up. There are some really good ones from some of the members on xda.

After rootin I wanted my home screen to be about what I primarily use my tablet for. I borrowed a couple of the graphics from the old google image search and modified them to fit the illustrated look I wanted.
Im running CM7...
with
-Beautiful Widgets
-Desktop Visualizer for the jumbo icons.
-ADW Launcher
I used Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to make the icons.

Went back to a stock ROM (MoDaCo) so I can begin working on Mahogany again. Have a bunch of rotating wallpapers that are all kinda the same concept.
What app are you using for the Folders on the Home screen? I went back to stock ROM also to get the Mahogany look but I am unable to use shortcuts or folders on GO Launcher, any ideas? Also I haven't been able to use PicSpeed or Quickpic for wallpapers, is this restricted by Stock ROM? What are you using for wallpapers? BTW can't wait for Mahogany, good luck and God's speed. I will try to post my screen shot of a Kindle-esque home screen.
Thanks
Those are just the basic Go Launcher EX folders. Probably the nicest detail of Go Launcher actually because everything else is pretty naff.
I used the zip provided here to change the wallpapers: http://droidpirate.com/2011/11/20/amazon-kindle-fire-how-to-change-wallpapers/
You don't need any additional apps, it just works. I would still use the apps and SAVE the wallpaper, but then unload them, copy and paste them into the files and resave them in Photoshop or something. It's a limitation of the stock ROM yeah.
And thank you for your kind words!

Can you please upload the Go Launcher? Thank you in advance!
Thanks, here are the apps that I used to get it setup:
Go Launcher - Home Screens
To get the text label with folders you need 3 apps:
Simple Text - To create the text icons
Application Folder - To create your folders
Desktop Visualizer - To place the folders on the home screens with your icons
Create you icons, then create your folders and organize your app into them, you do not need to place the icons in the folder app, just label your folders and app your apps.
Then use the Desktop Visualizer by long pressing on the home screen and selecting Widget (use the 1x1 widget not the 1x1ss widget), press Select Icon and browse to your icon, then when you press Select Action press Other then Application Folder and select your folder. Once you go back to the main DV screen remove the text from the Label field then press ok. You could use just the Application Folder to place the folders on the desktop but they do not scale to the right size for tablets so you really need to use DV.
The battery widget is just Circle Battery Widget.
If you have other questions just let me know.
