Lets start a thread for home screen setups! It's always so inspiring to see how many different ways people customize their phones.
I downloaded this app called Palette by Sam Beckman. Check out from the link in he's name how he applies all the customizations.
It's a great app to get inspired and ultimately customize your phone.
Here is my setup atm.
It's a modified version of the "Creamy blends" setup in Palette app. All the details of that setup is in the app. I combined it with the GLO icon pack.

No matter how many times I customize the homescreen, I always come back to this version. Black wallpaper should help with burn in issues, and it's very easy on the eyes at night. Minimal icons on the desktop that take me to my often used apps, and that's about it. ) Nova launcher helped me shape the icons.
Stock launcher, you icons using Shortcut maker, Kwgt with Shadow kwgt widget pack.

Here's a picture of my home screen. I like to keep things simple. It's the adw minimalist homescreen. I was wondering if there was a way to get the battery color to not be green.
I was looking at some themes, but didn't want to download the entire theme to just get the status bar.
Is there a theme out there that's super simple like my homescreen?

Oops, hit the thanks button instead of quote. So I'm not sure if there is a like what you want, but the status bar can be modified by changing the framework-res.jar file. If you find a theme with a battery you like, you can grab those images from the framework-res.jar in it to mod your own. (You'll have to search to see which files they are---I'm not a big modder of the file myself.)
Alternatively, you can try using the online kitchen at this site: http://circle.glx.nl/. They allow you to select from a wide variety of battery types where you can customize the color scheme. They also allow you to modify other elements of your framework. After you make your selections, you just upload your existing framework-res.jar and download the one they modify for you. If all you want is to change your battery icon, this is probably your best bet.
Love this phone. However I am so used to HTC and like to have a full calender on one page, locations on another and music on another . Is this not possible on all these blank screens? I long touch screen and no option for widgets comes up.
Long press on a widget in the widget drawer to drag it onto the screen

Another good widget app is Make Your Clock if you like to design your own. In the following screenshot, the analog clock and the top three widgets on the left were made with MYC.

collection skin thread, don't forget to thank the OP
Wow so many answers and none what OP asked. Lol. ( Alex did actually.)
You don't get widgets like that on android 4.0 +. You go to app drawer and than get to the widgets, swype to get them or press the tab named widget.
Also you won't find a full calendar widget on stock android, you have to install third Party app/widget.
Download APW Widget:

OR!!!

Hi everyone.
So, I'm working on a new theme for my Nexus 4. I am trying to get something great looking for the start of the Baltimore Orioles season. Here's what I have so far:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can see that my phone, messaging, camera, contacts, and app drawer sit in the dock, which I pull up with a gesture. Below that are my toggle icons for wi-fi, GPS, etc. The icons and background are from SeriouslyCrazy, who is a very creative themer. The Maryland flag in the navigation bar is just my own personal touch I put on every theme to salute my home state. I currently don't have anything specific to the Orioles on the icons or wallpaper, but I'm definitely down for pictures of real Orioles, Camden Yards, Orioles logos, etc.
That being said, I'm putting this out to the community for anyone interested in (1) general theming, (2) Baltimore Orioles, or (3) orange stuff. I like layouts that move away from a wall of icons, though I find my Nexus 4's screen kind of small for widespread widget usage (unlike my Nexus 10). I'm open to any and all suggestions or ideas.
I love it guy! Just no orioles icons and I'd rock it. .. Theme chooser?

Isn't this just your homescreen design?

Well, right now. But I'm looking for advice, help, or suggestions for making a quality Orioles theme. I'm not tied to this background or the icons, they're just a starting point.
So I played around with theming the GEPack icons and I found a way to turn the drawer icon completely transparent except for the the dots. I also thought to turn the drawer icon into a folder background. Use it in Nova launcher as I did and complete that theme you wanted! You can change the color of each one in any png editor. Have fun!
I'll take some color requests but mind you, I will only be able to do them in my free time.

Don't download via Tapatalk app or xda-developers.com! When the file is downloaded, the filename changes, thus killing the transparency! The attached files are only to show you what they look like!

Could use these simple drawers
There are actually more interesting folder backgrounds (this is personal, others might like something simpler like these) could be found, however the drawers are nice addition. So, thanks.
This is the Edge Launcher @rompit added to the MOAR ROM V6.1 and thanks to him for his guide on how to remove the app labels. THANKS @rompit.
I removed the app labels and added a transparent folder....you can choose any color folder except blue, choosing blue will enable the transparent folder.:good:
WIPE CACHE, AND FLASH.

Nice work, I've was using the edge launcher on MOAR, but when i pushed the s6 weather my widget would disappear. It was still there just invisible, I'd have to move it or resize it for it to reappear. Do you know if it does it on this one without the app labels? I switched to the 5x5 and the weather widget works great

Yea it does it still,so i dont think its a launcher issue.But if you use the clock widget that includes the weather ,there is no issues. Only the weather widgets have that problem.
