Took me a while to get a working screenshot app...

Here's my Razr Maxx at the moment. Used Lightning Launcher to make a simple, one screen setup. I access my app drawer by tapping the space between Maps and Phone.

There's no screenshot tool built in to the OS? I have one device where if you hit the home + power button together it'll save a screen shot (same combo as the iphone). My current phone+rom does it if you hold power+volume down for a second.

Until ICS that was a Samsung exclusive feature.

There very well may be a Moto built in option for it, but I didn't bother to check and I figured I could use the excuse as a reason to root. 😉
 
Bump, cause I love changing the looks and settings... :awe:

My current screen (I have the pebble blue S3, but no art generator seems to have it as an option):

Going for super minimalistic, only one screen with no app shortcuts, widgets, or even dock visible. A simple swipe up launches Gesture Search, which gets me to anything I need on my phone, while a double tap launches voice search. This is the main reason why I prefer Android, it gives me the freedom to do stuff like this.

Chose this background because I love how Calvin & Hobbes look like they're in awe of the display size. 😀

Other functions: Home button launches app drawer if needed, and pinch to zoom anywhere on screen launches recent apps list. Using Nova Launcher.

Mine...just organized my most used stuff on the main screen. Second home screen has my news apps and mobile shopping apps (amazon, newegg etc). Third one has flipboard and a WiFi widget.

Been living with this for a while.

Thats a little TOO simple. If I were gonna have something like that I'd want the clock to be much bigger.

Thats my biggest complaint with most nightstand/clock apps (paid or free), you rarely have decent control over the font or size. It seems like a basic thing to me.
 
I have an honest question for people, why do you waste space on your main screen with a clock widget when both the lockscreen and the status bar have a clock in them? It's one of the first things I get rid of on android.

Well I can press the clock on my widget and have it take me right to my alarms, which I use daily. I can't seem to do that with the clocks in other areas.

Simple Calendar is my most used widget now though. So damn handy.
