I like this idea ALOT. The 5 hidden could be the top ones obviously, Today can still be used and a WB slot. Another way to open up a spot is if in the today section, Calender is not hidden and once you select it, the appointments show up. So i guess only the appointments are hidden.

There will also be a version where all 10 icons are permanent (no sliding dock).

I'm considering making a WeatheBug version of these themes, but I'll have to play around with it a little bit.
Thanks, I am glad you like my suggestions. I am just happy I can help or provide you with any constructive ideas since all the great work you do for us.

That L idea sounds and looks great. I am glad you said you will incorporate the today as well (helps me infinitely). Also glad to hear your trying to incorporate WB. That L with Today (calender hidden or not) and WB would be one of the most useful and nice looking ones I can think of. I LOVE the glow Icons. Also love the black background and red underline in the app menu, makes it pop. And the icons the way they are dont hinder good wallpapers. Once again YOU ROCK. Thanks for all the effort. I am always here for ideas.

I don't think I'm gonna be able to make a 12 icon theme...at least not with only two rows of icons. Fitting 6 of the default icons into one row (horizontal row) makes the icons VERY squished together and difficult to use.

only two suggestions...in horizontal orientation the spacing on the time and date is just a little off (reads Wednesday1March25)...second suggestion is if you could remove the red line under icon when hovering. other than that I think its perfect. thanks -joe

Probably not gonna want to remove the red line. It is the only way to tell when folders or 3rd party apps are focused on.

12 icon seems a bit cluttered. How are you thinking to arrange that? 2 rows of 5 then one in each top corner?? But why? just use app menu....

Amazing theme... Even before a quickpull/ battery pull this was running just as fast as the stock Precision Zen.. The dock is as perfect as they will get, no lag or hesitation at all. If memory is stable this theme will be a true winner!

Hey I found a little tip.

You can not create a folder in portrait mode (for me anyway), and your existing pre-made folders dont glow when selected. BUT you can make a folder in landscape mode and it WILL glow.

Just thought that would help

yeah. having two icons on top and then maybe 2 rows of 5 below would be awesome... if not at least two rows of 5 at the bottom would be awesome.

also when you are in messages or something in portrait the area where the time shows is transparent and i can see the background. could you make that a solid color

in reference to the red line... you can tell that the item is being selected by the glow... on mine both the folders and 3rd party apps glow? (only a suggestion...i just think it would look cleaner) thanks

Which folders and 3rd party apps glow? Some of the third party apps glow no matter what theme is being used (Visual Voice Mail, Facebook (sort of), Google Maps, YouTube), but most of mine don't.

Also, none of the default Storm folders (Applications, Games, Downloads, Setup and Instant Messaging) glow, and there's nothing I can do to fix this. Is it working on your phone?

Ideally I'd like to have only the "glow" and no line, but I figured it was a good compromise for the icons that cannot glow.
