    So I have been developing some themes and one of which has quite a bit of icons that are accessible from the home screen. Do you guys think that there would be a set number of icons that would be "too many" or would it be "the more the better"?

    I don't normally use my Storm on a day to day basis but I know when I do I always want more icons since I miss the keyboard shortcuts. But now that Quick Launch is available then it's a hard decision between how many icons to have.

    What do you guys think?

    Minimal themes are by far the best.

    I prefer more icons if the docks are hidden and you can never go wrong with hidden shortcuts.

    Well the themes that I've done with more icons aren't all on the home screen, they are hidden in various places

    I would actuall like to see 3 or 4 rows of 5. Haven't seen that yet and quick access to top apps would look cool with the right icons.

    Less icons unless they are hotspots and/or hidden docks. Its nice to be able to personalize the screen with wallpapers and not have icons all over it.

    i have the bbprofessional theme which has 3 rows of 5 icons, but only comsumes 1/2 of the screen below the banner. i guess that means that, if you don't have a today or weather bug area, you could have 30 icons plus hidden buttons in the banner! that would be pretty cool!

    Well I haven't been able to max out OS 4.6/4.7 with icons like you can on OS 4.5. I haven't really tried though.

    I like the themes that have lots of icons on it so I don't need to navigate away from home screen. Don't like clutter though I want to see my cool background I always have. I myself love the ones with hidden ones. Like click the time for clock, signal for manage connections, battery for options, etc, etc.
