LauncherPro Beta (SUPER FAST & SMOOTH Launcher!)

I have launcherpro plus. Anyone have problems with the people widget? When I select it to display my favorites, its blank. It will show all contacts, but anything else I choose its just empty. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I downloaded the latest version of LauncherPro Plus (7.4.0) and ended up with hundreds of unwanted icons in my gallery in a folder called "drawable" that I can't seem to find in a file manager. Is there any way to get rid of them other than deleting them one by one?
 
People widget working fine here on favorites. Getting several force close a day, though, sometimes when just using an app, but I'm not going to give up so fast. Going to try Fede's forum, and then of course see how it behaves with Froyo.

Droid1 2.1 Launcher Pro Plus and received a update this morning and haven't had one force close as of yet. Yesterday was a different story, forced closed constantly and I was getting pissed because I had just upgraded to the plus. I'm not giving up just yet however I feel that sometimes more is not necessarly better, sometimes you gotta just perfect whats well enough.
On a side note is there a way to sync the people widget with facebook regarding the contact photo etc?

Syncmypix. Free in the market. Doesn't sync all of my contacts, but most.
 
Facebook Sync is also good. It will sync Facebook profile pix to Google contacts even if they don't correspond, like if you have them under a different name in your phonebook than they use on FB or whatever.

put a .nomedia file in there.
they are in the launcherpro_backup\files directory.

The resize widget is a big problem. There needs to a way to disable it because I keep activating it all the time. I do not want to see an add to upgrade to the plus version and I don't want to hit the back button everytime i interact with my homescreen.

Agreed, useless function especially since it doesn't actually resize a widget it just cuts it in half so it looks hacked. My other gripe is the LP calendar widget, when you press on a specific date it won't pull up to that particular date. You then have to manually program your desired date to log a activity, way too many steps that are not necessary, again useless and cumbersome functionality wise. I understand things can be fined tuned but I'll say it again, tooooo much gadgetry and not enough functionality. Take this a constructive criticism not bashing. I think the developer is talented and has great intentions.

I just switched back to 0.6.7.3a and I noticed a dramatic increase in speed with out all of the superfluous crap. Hopefully there won't be any force closes errors or a ton of redrawing. Will let you all know in the next couple of days.

The resizing is a good feature. Try it out on a photo frame. They used to be only 2x2, now they can be whatever you want! How can you complain when they add new features? Man some people say they want more and more, the other half say keep it the way it was it's perfect. Respect the developer, he knows what's best!
 
I've been having a lot of issues with pressing the button to the left of the home button on the bottom of the droid, sorry I forgot the name lol. But I have launcher pro and press this button to get to settings or preferences and the phone acts like I never pressed the button at all. I'm pretty sure it's a launcher pro problem because any other launcher is fine. Anyone else have this problem?

Yes create an empty file in the appropriate directory called .nomedia. If you are on linux or using adb, go the directory and do:
touch .nomedia
