Week 3 Winners For Android Home Screen Contest

Taylor Wimberly — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 22:48:06 +0000

Three weeks ago, we asked you to share your home screen with us and the response was great. I gathered all the images and uploaded them to our Flickr page. Browse through the submissions and leave comments if you have any questions about how they were created. Most of them have notes describing the theme and widgets installed if you would like to experiment with your Android phone.

The Winners

Thank you to everyone who made a submission. We had so many great looking screens that it was hard to pick the winners. I enjoyed checking out all the widgets, themes, apps, and wallpapers that everyone sent in.

Pay them bills – submitted by justinhub2003
Attack from the sky – submitted by Michael Anderson
Equalizer – submitted by Lewis
Mini globe – submitted by Rchatburn.
Prism – submitted by DroidHead

I’m really amazed at the flexibility and customization available to Android users. These home screens continue to evolve and top anything I have seen from other smartphone platforms. You can find the latest talk about Android modifications in our new forums. Fans of home screen mods should be on the lookout for Sweeter Home Preview 2.

The contest may be over, but I invite you to join our Flickr group, Android Home Screens. We will keep an eye on the group and continue to share your awesome creations with our readers. (Hint: we do a lot of stealth contests. Speaking of contests, the Astrid user survey goes up Monday)
