How do I add the shelves to my screen. Using launcher Pro plus????
 
Not sure if shelves are an option in that launcher as i use go instead but you could duplicate the effect with a tight grid spacing in the launcher settings and shelves on a background image. If that doesnt work there are other ways such as overlapping dvr boxes...

Got bored of the 'minimalist' theme so I went for something a little different. Running 3 screens now. All icons I made myself in Photoshop from random photos I found online.

main home screen

WOW nice screens...I am officially jealous. Wish I can do that with my Bionic but I'm not very tech savvy.
 
How do I go about applying the mclock mod? I see it's a .zip

Shelves are embed to the wallpaper, same as for the icons, and the reflections too, its a long process but offer you some really nice designs, you need an editing image software like Photoshop or GIMP

Nevermind I figured it out but I cannot figure out how to get my Icons to sit on the selves.. overlap..

How did you do the shelves ?

I don't think that would be feasible since you need a really tight precision or let's say, you need to be as close as possible with the alignments, doing it your way I doubt will give you anything even closer, that is the whole advantage of using an image editing, you can place stuff in the locations you want with pin point accuracy.

I really wish I could find out how the mclock mod he was talking about works. It's a .zip, so do I just flash it in recovery?

Do not try to flash the zip, it will not work that way. check this out:

Install mClock from the market
create a folder on the root of the SD and named it "mClock"
Extract all the contents of the zip into that folder
Place a 4x2 mClock widget on your screen...
When the black screen appear, select XML template>mClock>MIUI-Revamped that will be give you 6 possible choices that you will pick as you wish.
Done! and Enjoy
 
If you want to change the colors on the mClock from a template, just open up Root Explorer, go to sd card, then mClock, then MIUI-Revamped and that's where you'll have all your templates. To modify the xml, just long-press one of the xml, click on open text in editor.

Look for color codes (example: #FF0000). You'll typically see something like Foreground="#FF0000" Background="000000". You'll want to change the color code to a color you like. You'll need to find a good color code chart online for the color code. Once you do find a color, you can keep it solid or mix/blend (two colors). Foreground will be top, background will be bottom. You can change it for hour, minute, day, month, and if year prevails then for year as well. Also for additional Text line that divides/separates any of those mentioned above. Once finished, push Menu hardkey and save and exit. Your original xml will then be dismissed and kept as backup (example: black.xml.bak). That way, if something goes wrong, or you want to revert, the original file will be there while you delete or dismiss the new xml. Your changes will be made immediately once you save and exit and close out of Root Explorer.

Any questions let me know...

Thanks! It's tedious and takes some time, but you definitely don't have to be tech savvy. All you need is Launcher Pro (or similar), Desktop Visualizer, and the right-sized icons. All the instructions are in the link I posted
