All credits go to Pierre Hebert for an amazing Launcher and being an amazing friendly dev.
Lightning launcher has a new in built theme backup/sharing so I thought I would start this so we can share on xda too.
Themes are called templates and can be built into apks or shared as a backup file which just needs placing in the LightningLauncher folder on your sdcard or emulated SD card.
You must have latest LightningLauncher installed.
Get it here. free version
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.pierrox.lightning_launcher
Also available is the LL extreme Version which is a paid app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.pierrox.lightning_launcher_extreme
The launcher has a new inbuilt template engine that can create,search and apply templates.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Browse existing - will lead to the play store apks that are available to download and apply.
Apply - will apply any chosen template which is present in your LL folder on your sdcard/emulated SD.
I will link to all my current templates on post 2.
Apks and Normal files included.
Apks need to be installed then applied, other templates will need to be placed in your LL folder which is auto generated by the app.
Once there all that's needed is to go to the apply option and choose the desired template, accept the launcher to create widgets etc when promted.
!! PLEASE NOTE !!
Device specifics may lead to some templates not showing correct. All my templates are made on the nexus 4 so may look strange on other devices.
Further info and screens are available on the LightningLauncher G+ pages.

I decided to share my Pinup theme it's a little more work but for sure it's worth it
So here come the explanation how to accomplish this theme
First the things you need.
LL Launcher of course https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.pierrox.lightning_launcher&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm5ldC5waWVycm94LmxpZ2h0bmluZ19sYXVuY2hlciJd
Uccw https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.vineetsirohi.customwidget&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImluLnZpbmVldHNpcm9oaS5jdXN0b213aWRnZXQiXQ
The Uccw uzip files this include the weather and wallpaper, it also include the PSD for the pinup tiles and the wallpaper PSD
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_CuFN5jCNftNU5nb1g0Ul8wbm8/edit?usp=sharing
For other pinup files go to http://www.thepinupfiles.com/index.html#.UWzDI4n8J9A
You can of course also use other picture's or photo's instead.
Icons http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30620371&postcount=2858
LL Theme https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B_CuFN5jCNftYnZfS2xkdHhPRDQ/edit?usp=sharing
I don't know sure if everything is packed in the theme so that's why I put everything with it and also a description how to accomplish this theme
Preparation
If you don't have Lightning launcher and/or uccw
Install them first
Unzip the uccw files and put them on your phone of course also put the wallpaper with it.
Wallpaper
This theme is for 1280X800, but because you have the PSD files you can adjust it to other sizes
Be sure only that you remember the sizes of your tiles because that will be importend in uccw.
UCCW
This you really have to check out when you adjusted the size of the wallpaper and/or tiles
Be sure that the background in the uccw editor have exactly the same size as the widgets (uzip) else you gone have trouble with aligning the widgets and also the hotspot of the widget will be very hard to get it right.
Lighting launcher settings
Current screen settings
Items>Text Display label off
Items>Icon Display the icon on, Enable reflection off
Rest of the Items no need to change
Wallpaper & Background> Display wallpaper
Wallpaper & Background> Select your wallpaper look up your wallpaper
Wallpaper & Background> Width 768
Wallpaper & Background> Height 1280
The rest of Wallpaper & Background stay the same
Behavior>Layout>Free mode on
Behavior>Layout> Dual position off
Behavior>Layout> Snapping none
Behavior>Zooming and scrolling>scrolling direction> Vertical only
Behavior>Zooming and scrolling> Scrolling speed 3.0
Behavior>Zooming and scrolling> Use scroll stops on
Behavior>Zooming and scrolling> Disable diagonal scrolling on
Behavior>Zooming and scrolling> rest of settings off
Behavior>Lost+found> Screen orientation > Portrait
Behavior>Lost+found> Hide the statusbar On
Appdrawer settings
Wallpaper & Background> Display wallpaper
Wallpaper & Background> Tint color (i made it black but you can pick what ever color you want)
Now the settings of lightning launcher are done and it's time to build up your screen
As you see the wallpaper have for the pinned widgets and icons (Weather, Time, Agenda, Frequent apps and missed) already aligned squars and there place
So that is gone be easy.
But first we have to put the pinup uccw widgets on there place because the alignment will be much easier.
Be sure that the hotspot of your uccw pinup widget is connected with the right app (if you have chanced it or in case i use a other app then you do)
Place the first one and go on from there it's a little hard to do but worth the effort.
When you have placed the first 3 the swipe with your fingers up or down to get to the top page or lower page to add the next 3.
When all this is done then add the pinned uccw widgets, you pin them by holding them a little longer then you get a menu in which you can pin them.
I hope you gone like the theme and it inspire to make your own or even better theme

I can't really answer that but I must say I have tried L.L. a few times and found it very confusing to use, I'm sure giving it a bit of time will yield good results but it was just a bit full on for my liking.

Because apparently the general population can't use common sense, this is a video on how to apply: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i4L0i7zk48
A .zip is linked at the bottom which holds all of the themes. Each theme has two separate versions, one using the Sense application icons, the other using the slide application icons.
The themes are of the stock Slide themes (Nest, Hoops, LightShow, Wildflower, Surf, Nature, and Palazzo) made from images by HTC (I only made them compatible with ADW).
Hoops:

LightShow:
Nature:
Nest:
Palazzo:

Issues:
2. For some reason I could not get the vertical scrolling screen to display the app background correctly so you will have to use the Galaxy S drawer unless you don't mind the select/press/normal images not lining up. *Problem with the Stock Launcher Code (Which ADW uses)*
3. Landscape is ugly, sorry, it just is.
4. When adding an app to the hidden dock, the right side of the highlighted dock does NOT reach the edges of the screen, I'll look into this.
5. Scrolling is low quality, it's just an Android thing.
6. The nature theme looks a little odd on the app bar.. thing. It has vertical lines and unfortunately, the way I understand .9's, they like to stretch. It was either have one really long line or lots of lines slightly larger than the original image. I chose the latter.

Good job broseph.
Wow... Good work J!!
You're such an effing swagger jacker.
Very nice looking! The only suggestion I have is to do something with the shortcut names in the app drawer...only the shortest names are fully visible, otherwise they're cut off (because of the border). Maybe there is no way to beautify that, so no biggie. Otherwise, beautiful!
looks great
thanks
looks awesome. thank you
Very cool! I installed it on my phone. Thanks. But I don't have clock widget with weather. How I can get it?

"Weather & Toggle Widget" has a skin that looks exactly like it also, you can download it and the skins (one for clock, one for weather) from the market, it does cost $1.99 though I believe. Totally worth it imo.

Ooohp, yep. I bought that a long time ago as well (Before it was Weather & Toggle Widget).
Also, the Nest theme s currently on the market, to find it you can search for either "ADWTheme Slide" or "pub:klinster". It is one version ahead of all of these themes (and as such has a couple of things fixed, including HDPI support and general fixes with the bubble).
Starting later today I will begin updating the other themes, and ready them for (hopefully) a market release was well.
not fancy widget
So i went ahead and uploaded a widget thats called not fancy widget it's not fancy widget ..............I swear it's not guys ......don't look at me like that. Also I can't for the life of me get the boxes in the drawer to look correct

If using the themes posted in this thread it's known, I hope to have fixed that in the market version. Would you mind trying that and then tell me if the boxes are working correctly?

Palazzo worked real well using the slide version. It gave me a force close but i hit wait also want to note my settings which were already setup from using crazybirds theme (nest)
Drawer settings:
horizontal drawer yes
drawer columns to drawer row are all set to four
page horizontal margin is at 10
ui settings:
desktop dots unchecked
secondary action buttons checked
ab scale factor 10
everything else is set to default except background color in drawer
Okay I just checked the ones on the front page and the ones that say slide all work (i didn't test the others) but when I go back to the nest from the market it messes up the drawer boxes. Loving it thanks for your work can't wait till lyrical ink shows up

UPDATE IS STOPPED FOR PUBLIC USER
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
explanation
-----------
I will not provide icon updates for public
because I see the icon that I created distributed at will.
without notice on the owner.
yesterday I get a PM from our friends who question whether the icon is made by me or not.
after that ,I tried looking on google on matters relating to the icons that I created.
result, many people are claimed that this icon are his work.
I also found some blogs that upload this theme to a file hosting.
I am very sorry for the inconvenience,
but due to the greater number of icons (now about 840+, Thank god didn't release yet)
I have to protect my work.
I may act according to your very childish,
but this is what I can do to make everyone smile without hurting anyone.
you still can download the version1.3 for Launcher Pro

How you doin'? Greetings from my GT-I9000!
Wow, just Wow!
It hit me a few days ago, that I really like the design of Meego/Harmattan. I couldn't find any good quality icon packs back then.
I found the icon design guidelines from Nokia, and I photoshopped out the default ones from the pdf.
Plus I began to make a few icons for myself, based on the guide.
And Bam! Now here is your excellent quality icon set, that renders my work effectively unnecessary.
Don't get me wrong, I really really like your icons
As I said, I made some icons for myself, I hope you don't mind if I post them here. At least the not-redundant ones. Their size is 80x80 pixels, except for the android market icon, which is based on a default Nokia icon.
The icons are for:
Appusage - com.smartappers.appusage
BaconReader - a reddit reader app, can not be found in market yet, package name is: com.anrdoid.chrisarvin.baconreader (it's not a typo)
QuickPic - com.alensw.PicFolder
FBReader - org.geometerplus.zlibrary.ui.android
MortPlayer - de.stohelit.folderplayer
Samba Filesharing - com.funkyfresh.samba
Changelog Droid - com.cypressworks.changelogviewer
Opera and Opera Mini (these because I like more the shape of the O from the original Opera logo)
+ 4 misc icons for app drawer/folders
They are smaller in size than your icons, and maybe worse in quality, so obviously I don't except you to include my icons. But feel free to use them as base, or inspiration - and take them as icon requests
Although I don't use Launcher Pro.
Plus requests:
AdAway - org.adaway
Total Commander - com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander

I made this theme after I saw the Dark Pie UI Super Boss Style setup... loved the concept but found their setup to be more "involved" so to speak... I created my own version completely from scratch only using the idea of the original. Placed things where i wanted them placed and setup so that the end user can actually customize it a bit more than just having my EXACT setup... Everything is included in the .zip including instructions in the README file in case u don't feel like opening this thread again lol...
While the idea was based on Dark Pie UI... The imagery and colors were solely based off of my "GCS - CM9 Theme Chooser" theme which you can get more info from here... If you want to know the next color combo or direction, just look my signature for my other themes... (hint, SCS will be the next color setup for this)
I will do my best to update the 2nd post of this thread with added icons and/or requests as well as ALL DOWNLOADS... And alternate versions of this setup...
THIS WORKS ON ANY ICS/JB ROM provided you can install the below apps!
Apps needed to complete this theme:
Code:
[B]Apex Launcher Pro[/B] - http://tinyurl.com/apexprogcr
or
[B]Nova Launcher[/B] - http://tinyurl.com/novagcr
and
[B]UCCW[/B] - http://tinyurl.com/uccwgcr
Code:
Hex Colors Used
Dark Blue: #FF1245e0
ICS Blue: #FF33b5e5
Red: #FF750005
Purple: #FF9400f0
Pink: #FFff00ff
**The Sources folder contains the .xcf (gimp-sorry no .psd) files to edit any graphics and also fonts.**
Directions for Apex Launcher:
Code:
1) Download and install Apex Launcher Pro. Has to be Pro because of the widget overlay.
2) Download and install UCCW
3) Connect your phone via USB
4) In the /sdcard directory copy over all of the folders except the "Sources" folder. Merge the folders if it asks.
5) You now have everything ready to setup. (just wanted to add a step lol)
6) Go to your gallery and in the "GCR_Wallpaper" folder you will see the main wallpaper. You have to crop it as big as it can go and as low as it can go then hit "Crop".
7) Start by opening Apex Settings and click on "Backup & restore" and restore the "settings" and "desktop data"
8) Hit Home button and let it refresh.
You should now have only ONE homescreen and some icons that don't really appear to be icons on the homescreen. Along with a "7x5" layout.
9) Add a "1x2" UCCW widget to the middle of the square. When it opens select "GCR_Clock" and then hit the back button.
The Clock should appear and be themed with the colors already. Longpress to resize and pull the right side over one column and do the same on the left and pull down one.
Should be "3x3" now. If not, play around with it til it is.
10) Add a "5x1" UCCW widget just under the "05 Current Conditions" part of the screen. When it opens, restore to "GCR_Weather" and back out.
After it sets on the screen you will need to longpress and resize this one pulling it down one row. Should be "5x2" now. Adjust your settings to work for your area if you need to.
11) Edit the folders with your own desired apps.
12) You now have the GCR Homescreen setup :)
Optional Lockscreen setup. This one is a bit more tricky if your ROM doesn't support custom lockscreen images. In fact i have no idea how you would get this one lol
Code:
1) In your ROM settings look for your "Lock Screen" or similar. Then select it.
2) Select "Background" and choose custom image.
3) Navigate to the "GCR Wallpapers" folder and selct the lockscreen of your choice. For a smidge more customized, select the "GCR_lock_wallpaper_Sprint" image if you have Sprint.
4) YES the green is there so u know not to scale to that area. Crop the image so that its starting from the very top and it's touching both sides.
5) Select Crop
6) Hit the power button
7) Hit the power button again to see the beautiful creation :)
**note: don't unlock it to keep looking at the awesomeness**
If anyone tries this and gets it working with Nova Launcher... Please lmk here with your setup instructions for that launcher!
**Disclaimer**
all statusbar images and custom app icons on the lockscreen are included when you try the Free version of my GCS - CM9 Theme Chooser, theme found on the Play Store... Click the link above for details on that theme!! Sorry only works with Theme Chooser!!
Download Instructions:
Download the .zip file and extract and proceed to follow installation instructions...
These folders will stay updated with the LATEST edits that I apply to it... optional wallpapers and icons will be added to this folder so be sure to check it for any updates!!
GCR - Dropbox Folder
SCR - Dropbox Folder
RCR - Dropbox Folder - main color = #FF1245E0
note: ALL zips starting with "RCR" have "SCR" weather/clock widget color settings and will need to be edited manually. The main color used will be next to each theme!

nope... this works with ANY ROM... i had it on a JB (4.1) port that i was running earlier... read the disclaimer on the bottom of post 1 for full details!
love it
thanks
i'll take a few requests for icons to add to the bottom and will try to provide a link for that folder on db so you all can grab whatever you need... i can also walk you guys through how to make your own icons so that i'm not the one doing all the work here haha...
for example... i made this "Settings" icon as well (included in original .zip) and just changed the icon on the desktop to reflect the new app...

unfortunately that is part of the wallpaper... i can edit the original image really quick but i don't have a settings image to replace that one with... unless you want me to delete that part of the wallpaper and then just leave it blank so you can add the settings icon??
btw, i updated the 2nd post with a link to a db folder that will always have the latest wallpapers for this!!

Read the directions in the op... #4 specifically... I never mentioned anything about uzip...
That entire uccw folder gets copied over to your sdcard... the proper directories for the specific backups for the clock and weather are in that folder already...

Eclipse project to make clock skins for Wallpapyrus pro app (search Google play). The clocks feature a second's hand and can be adjusted for position and scale in the app.

The steps are:
1) ) Unzip sample project 'Analog clock 2.zip' on desktop in your computer.
2) Open eclipse. Create new project. Select 'Android Project From Existing Code' and select this project.
3) Change package name of project to a unique name - it can be [?].[?].[yourname].[skinname]. ? can be any word. You have to open AndroidManifest.xml and change package name there.
4) Replace your clock images in the raw folder.
5) Change app icons.
6) Provide app name.
7) Export project and upload here and/or Google play.
Note: The images for the clock are pivoted at the centre. See the images in the project.
Ask for any help. Below is the link for UCCW skins project which also explains the steps more clearly for making an android app.

Hi. I didn't understand this. Maybe 'coz I haven't used wallpapyrus that much other than applying the wallpapers with it a few times.
So, when we apply wallpaper with wallpapyrus now, it'll also add a clock widget on the homescreen? Where exactly the analog clock fits in in wallpaper app?? sorry for my silly question if it is silly.

Maybe the clock is a part of the wallpaper and will stay with it.. I don't get it. Please explain Vin.
There is a request (most by Niteowl) to implement the second hand in UCCW. Well UCCW is a widget, so its not feasible in a customization app (may be as a stand alone widget).
This is one solution for second hand in clock - Live wallpaper. So I made it as a weekend project.
Currently its only available in Wallpapyrus pro.

The clock can be placed anywhere on the screen in the Wallpapyrus settings (found in live wallpaper).

So, this eclipse project will create analog clocks with seconds hand. Is this flow of events -
User already has a wallpaper1 applied.
User long presses homescreen
Wallpaper > wallpapyrus.
There'll be a new option in the 'select from' window which will list all the analog clocks?
User selects the clock and it'll be applied as a live wallpaper with the wallpaper1 as background?

Wallpapyrus is replacement for default android wallpaper app. Default wallpaper app forces you to crop images while setting wallpaper - Wallpapyrus doesn't. Just choose Wallpapyrus where you would choose wallpaper while setting wallpapers. Try the free Wallpapyrus app.
Wallpapyrus pro has option to show clocks in settings. User will select the clock there after installing clock skin.

Hi, all! Just wanted to share my process for creating my home screen layouts. It's pretty simple and it's been relatively the same way I've been making my home screen designs for many years. There's been a clear pattern I favor (one home screen page only) and it's been serving me well for a long time. Just wanted to include some more examples and share some tools that I use in case any of you wanted some help recreating some of my designs or to help inspire you to make something unique to your tastes. It's a really fun process, IMO.
The first and most important tool that I use is GIMP, which if you don't already know is a free image editing program that you can download here: https://www.gimp.org/
There's TONS of tutorial videos on YouTube on how you can use this program, it's not difficult to use so you'll get the hang of things pretty quickly, IMO. Theoretically, you can create my themes (with maybe more capabilities) solely using Zooper Widget and/or KLWP but for me using GIMP to make the background wallpapers, the color schemes and icons, basically everything but the widgets, is much easier to make on my laptop using GIMP.
Here's some screenshots of a quick process using layers on GIMP and how it all looks.
I start with the 12x12 grid template that I created to help move everything into its proper place, then add the layers on top and make adjustments as I go along.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here's the 12x12 Nova Grid Template:
How about some color pallets to help make your choice of what color to use?
RED - PINK - PURPLE
DEEP PURPLE - INDIGO - BLUE
LIGHT BLUE - CYAN - TEAL
GREEN - LIGHT GREEN - LIME
YELLOW - AMBER - ORANGE
DEEP ORANGE - BROWN - GREY
BLUE GREY
I have a folder on my laptop full of icon packs that I've collected over the years. I just place them onto the wallpaper (as layers on GIMP) and use the grid template as a guide to put them in place. I use a blank Zooper Widget to make hotspots for every individual app in that area of the home screen, if you get what I'm saying.
This is my current layout that I'm using on my Note 8 - 12x12 Grid using Nova - Zooper Widget Pro - Power Toggles (Painless Apps)
Blank version without the icons
With the bottom icons only
Zooper file for the top widget that has the Time, Date and Storage Information - For the Micro SD info inside the Zooper Widget settings you need to find the name of your file path to your SD card, in my case it was simple "0000-0000". Use a file explorer to find your file path name to your card.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/n71zcm8rvtx58g8/New_Top_Widget.zw
Finally, here are some videos that I've made over the years to showcase some of my home screen creations. Some of them are a tutorial of sorts and the others are just showcasing a specific theme.
This first one I believe was my first video I made to show how I put together the final result of a layout. After all the editing is done on GIMP this is basically how things would get put together on the phone's end. I used to use Buzz Launcher for a long time before switching to Nova Prime I think when I got my Note 5. Most of these videos were made showing my layouts on Buzz Launcher but the principle is basically the same on Nova Launcher. Still using a 12x12 Grid.
S3 Layout
Enkel Lidenskab
I think this was made on my Note 3 or 4
SVART OCH VITT
This theme here was one of the few that I created that used more than one homescreen page. I believe it was made on my S3 or Note 4.
WIJH
This layout shows how I used to incorporate live wallpapers underneath my custom wallpaper. Latest versions of Buzz Launcher no longer allow you to do this and I haven't seen any examples of Nova allowing you to do this, either. That is, unless you just use a Zooper Widget to create the wallpaper in pieces but like I said, I prefer to just do that on my laptop using GIMP.

Well, that's basically it. I hope you've found this guide to be useful. If y'all have any comments or questions please feel free to post below. Have fun and see you around the forums!
Just wanted to share a few more details on how I put my themes together. For those of you using GIMP, here is the xcf file for my latest theme. When you open this in GIMP you'll get a better picture of how I put this all together.
http://www.mediafire.com/view/kt61g88at0ry5hg/07_Oct_2017.xcf
So I start with what do I need on my home screen. I need my most used apps, my favorite app folders, my power toggle widget and finally my combined widget for the time, date and storage info. I look at the 12x12 Grid Template and decide where I'm placing all of that.
This is how it looks with the lines so you can see how I managed things:
Just going by this recent layout I'm using, once I have everything placed where I need it I can start choosing the background wallpaper and save different versions so I can swap my phone's look throughout the week at my whim. The wallpaper doesn't have to be the exact size of the middle image space but you need to re scale it to at least 1122 pixel height and you can just drag it across to frame it how you'd prefer. If you've got this opened on GIMP you'll understand what I'm saying much clearer.
Here's another Zooper Widget template for my center clock layout in case anyone wants it:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/s5963dbch4d9oo6/Full_Circle_Roadie.zw
I hope these new details help. Keep sharing any questions you may have and thank you for all the kind words!
Amazing work
I truly appreciate this
visiones antiqua is one of the most amazing homescreens i've seen. This post pretty much epitomizes why I like Android. Bravo.
Thanks, guys! I really appreciate the kind words! Lotta work I put into these themes but they're fun to make and I enjoy helping out my community around here!
So, how do you change the main wallpaper? Do you go into GIMP every time and just re-upload it Nova?
How do you get each little section clickable in nova? Do you import it to KLWP?

I just save different versions of the same layout on my phone so that I can swap wallpapers depending on what I feel like.
The toggles on top is a widget
The time, date and storage info is a Zooper Widget
The folders in the middle (Tools/News/Media/Photography/Office/Games - I just drag from the the app drawer and make them transparent so the wallpaper comes through
The icon rows on the bottm launch from Zooper Widget hot spots.
This is fantastic. Thank you very much
Awesome work. Thanks
So I downloaded GIMP and also have PS. How am I to use your template considering it has the clock in it and all the other stuff? Or does that not matter?
Also, if I want to create my own template, whats the picture resolution supposed to be at ?

You don't need to go by my recent layout example, you can just use the grid template to help make your own but you can take my screen shots and chop them up and use whatever part you want. The clock is a Zooper Widget and you can download it from the link in the first post. Let me fire up GIMP and provide a more detailed description of my current home screen layout so you can see what size is what and where. I'll update my first post when I'm done. Hang tight!
Great stuff, thanks for sharing.
Post #2 updated with further details and files. Hope that helps!
@roaduardo do you have the first post's wallpaper without any icons, but including the shadows of each layer?
Also please remind me which widget is the top toggles widget?
Thank you!

Here ya go! The top widget I made using Zooper Widget Pro, the template of which I've also included in the first post. Install Zooper Widget Pro if you haven't already and just use that template file I included. If you run into any issues let me know.
Thanks a lot! Will try & revert back in case I face any issues
