WallpaperCASA works great for me.

ive seen that topic. im trying to start a topic about where people get their wallpapers.

Wallbase.net is probably my favorite, they have 650,000+ wallpapers.
4walled.org has some good ones, but also has very, very NSFW images, so be careful using that one. You can filter the NSFW results out, but I think that removes a lot of perfectly safe images too since it depends on the community to click the Safe checkbox.

[REQ] Sense UI 2.1 Theme for cyanogen v5.0.7-test1...

I love the new ROM as I'm sure a lot of people do, I just want the sense ui feel. If this is possible, or your working on it right now, please let me know. Thanks in advance!
you could download the home replacement panda hero! its as close to sense ui you can get without actually using a hero rom
I actually tried the Panda Home Hero home replacement, and it looked pretty good, except for the little bit of text at the bottom that reads "Light Version" or something to that effect. Is there any way to remove that, or am I just being hopeful? I don't really feel like paying for a paid version, especially now that Cyan's been able to get past the whole video thing, developers of Sense roms will hopefully be able to start producing roms with working video cameras. Just my opinion.

If you really look around the web, you can find websites that have the paid apk file for panda hero. I would post the file here, but I don't want to get banned, The only problem I have with panda is that it doesn't change your status bar, nor icons to match sense ui. I think someone made an espresso theme, I will check it out....

It is a little bit better, but I was hoping for a the hero version, not the espresso kind. All the sky blue and pink colors is annoying after a while. I guess beggars can't be choosers...

Wallpaper solution

If you've installed a new launcher, you may find the same thing I did: it's pretty much impossible to get an image to not distort when used for wallpaper. I messed with this for hours.
Then I discovered the app Wallpaper Set and Save. It runs on the NC, and it does one thing: set wallpaper so it's not distorted. Perfect.
Can you post the apk?

Sure. Here 'tis.
Dolphin 4 set the wallpaper for me from an internet picture just fine, FYI.
This is only a work around though. I want undone whatever it was the launcher pro did or im going to flash my nook and start over.
I'd guess that Launcher Pro just undid whatever hackery B&N did to their rom to correct the natively terrible way android handles desktop images. This app just rehacks it.
Same issue
I had the same problem but what I did was just set launcher pro to show 1 col by 1 row then after the resize went back to 10 col by 10 rows. First pop-up the settings menu with the tiny little menu button between the battery and "U" buttons in the soft menu. Rows and columns are set in preferences>Homescreen settings.
Note this just got my icons back on screen but the wallpaper is still oversized.
Would a subforum for people who want to be LendMe friends be a good idea?
Or would it be better off here?
I think it would work out very well to separate the conversation so people can find people they want to lend books between. It didn't occur to me before for XDA because most of the forums have to do with phones that dont have this sort of social feature
just a thought

A very good thought. We just have to find Nookers who share similar interests. Its own thread would be a good idea.

I'm certain a whole new website/forum will crop up with people willing to lend books to one another. The great thing about lending through the Nook is that you know you'll get your book back! (That is until someone figures out how to hack it to keep the book )

When I use the app, the wallpapers end up super-pixellated.
Any other hackery to get the wallpaper issues fixed?

[IDEA] live wallpaper app idea

I was wondering if there was a way to use your camera as a live wallpaper so it would just show what your camera sees in the background of your phone so it would look like your phone is transparent
One already exists. I haven't used it so I don't know how good it is but its gotten good reviews. Here is the link.

[REQ] Blue wallpaper from GALAXY Nexus demos yesterday

I believe it is a live wallpaper. I would like it as well. I don't think it was included in the system dump though. Someone could correct me if I'm wrong.
if the skies the limit, where's the urgency?
Yeah, it's live.
I'd be fine with a static version if someone could just photoshop the stuff ontop of the wallpaper, etc.
Would that be feasible?
How's this? I totally forgot where I found this, but I'm using it with Intel's ICS Launcher, and it's pretty nice. I'm working through the sdk now, so if I manage to get the live wallpaper to work, I'll post that as well.

If you do, that'd be awesome! Then we could try to get the new youtube, launcher2, and more to work xP. But one step at a time lol.

It's a Galaxy S2 wallpaper. (actually I'm not 100% it's gs2, but it's definitely a default wp from one of the latest phones lol)
Here's a better quality one.
You know what, I think you might be right. I think it's actually from the Nexus S…my fault. It looked kinda close to being a static image of the live wallpaper they used last night (granted I didn't get a great look at it), so I figured I'd share. The sdk dump has very little of value in it, other than for development purposes, but I'll download the Galaxy Nexus dump tomorrow, and see what I can find.

I doubt that because if you look at the status bar icons they're android ones

looks like it might be a venom rom (viper). can't get it on sprint yet.
Looks like Mi Home launcher. It is MIUI launcher installable without the whole ROM. It's on the playstore.
OP, I don't see anything distinctive about that home screen/launcher. That's not meant to be offensive, but it doesn't seem to have any "identifying" traits-- I don't see a dock, but lots of launchers let you hide a dock. Ditto for the app drawer. The icon set looks familiar-- I think I may have seen it in one of the newer minimal packs (particularly the G+ and Minecraft icons). But this entire setup looks like it would be entirely reproducible on several launchers with the right widgets.
Which ROMS allow red signal icons?
