Custom Home Screens - What do you want?

[Eregos]

Hello all. I just bought my Q last weekend and I'm loving it. Being a nurse and going back to school to get anesthesiology works great in keeping me organized. Anyways I have a request.

I would like a Home Screen with a superman design.

I'm a huge superman fan and would love a home screen with that theme.

Also I like all the icons in the verizon home screen default.

I would like to see in the front:

Missed calls
text messages
yahoo e-mail ( i dowloaded the yahoo go program)
up coming appointments
tasks
date/time

I don't need the two things at the bottom that say News and downloads. the items at the top that I can click to open programs I like.


Thanks for the help.

PS: Love the site has helped me a bunch.

I'm gonna make the star trek next generation interface into a home screen one of these days.

As for the superman idea, i like the sound of that too.

I would like to see the following :
1. MISSED Calls... large missed call font, something I do not need glasses to read
2. Voice mail
3. Calendar with today and next day appointments,,, one or two lines
4 Time and date display
5 Row of icons, calendar, call history, smart notes, similar to the 10 icon screen that comes with Q
6 I would also like to be able to modify the above, so a check box type option so I could check on and off what I would like displayed.

I continually do not notice my missed calls and voice mail notification and have checked every where and can not find any screens that have these basic options. The one I did find requried me to use a plug in called Facade. I do not know where to install that and hope that you can create a basic screen with the list of items I have indicated. I also do not need a pic for the back ground, I find that conflicts with the icons unless it is a plain pic. So I vote for no pic at all.
Thanks for your anticipated home screen.

- big clock/date
- text/mms/email/voicemail bar
- profile selection
- calendar day view

This is what I'm looking for. I'd like that setup with an easy interface to modify the programs on the FIXED bar. I also don't care much about the profile or calendar. Just want text/mms/email/voicemail bar and big clock/date.

Thats great RyanAmos.... I like some of the suggestions that others have listed.

I have been editing my screens and wanted to know if there a way to have 2 plugins on one line?? I would like to have the Bluetooth manager plugin on the same line next to the profile plugin. The profile plugin wastes valuable real estate since it doesnt need to take the whole width of the line. I learned how to do that with shortcuts but not plugins... Please help..

thanks...

agreed on the BIG clock/date, and the missed calls font...

can i make the time bigger and take some things off the front page?

I'm new to this forum, so if I'm not too late to put in my 2 cents, I'd like to see...

1) The carrier removed. (It's just an ad for them.)
2) The date and clock larger so I don't need to put on my glasses to see the time.
3) The Bluetooth plug-in removed. The icon at top is enough for me.
4) The "News" and "Downloads" plug-ins removed. (Those actually irk me.)

Other than that, I find the layout useful.
Thanks!

Need something with Facade, Fizz weather, but with large viewable print as I am an old fart.
