Post your Android home screen....

are you using a launcher? like Launcher Pro, or ADW? If so, long press on the icon and a border will appear around it, take your finger and drag it to how big you want it to be. If its a small icon, you will have to start from scratch and choose a different size with the Desktop Virtualizer (this is if you are using Launcher Pro, with ADW you dont have to start from scratch, just long press, select edit and find the icon)

also, if you are using any of these launchers, you can change the amount of space for the icon support, you can raise it to 5 (to get the 5x? effect) icons or keep it at 4.

im using launcher pro and desktop visualizer

i really like how the other homescreen had like 4 icons...so I would chose the 4x1 icons right?...when i try to use that and the pics i downloaded on my phone the icons pics come out super tiny

when I highlight the icon it highlights the appropriate space but for some reason the pics are coming out super tiny

did i download them wrong? leave it to me to make things so complicated:(

in your launcher pro settings, go to Homescreen and then scroll down to homescreen grid. change the number of columns to 5. you can try to change number of rows as well to 6. after that, go back to the screen and try to stretch the icon. if this doesnt work, chances are, the icon you are using is too small and cant be stretched. these are the icons you want right?

here is a link to them. extract them and put them all in one folder.

Good Question. My kinda does that too. Sometimes if I download the wallpaper of a moedel it will cut off a chick's head.

save the image you want as your wallpaper, to your phone. open up the gallery and find it. choose to save it as wallpaper and a box will appear around the image. drag the box to the portion of the pic you want to be shown. then save.

What's the best launcher app right now? I've been looking at all of them & can't decide between Launcher Pro, GoLauncher & staying with the Sense UI launcher from my rom.
 
Damnn late as hell on this thread. I got into that "Bettercut" yesterday and now on that "Desktop Visualizer". I'm currently making my own icons using this format

Yo when I download pics and save them as wallpaper there aren't as crisp as the original. It looks fuzzy and way to change the resolution?

I've found it's better not to use pics that are too large. Optimal res for EVO pics is 960x800.
