The Droid ///M

So I recently learned how to mess with all the customization options that Android offers and as such I created what you see below. Let me know what you guys think. Oh and the phone started it's life as a Droid Incredible by HTC.

Ladies and Gentleman, some say I'm obsessive, I say I'm passionate. Regardless, when you combine the two strongest forces in the universe you get the following: The Droid ///M. Control it and you control everything.

that is like putting an M logo on Kia, HTC copies what everyone else is doing as Kia copies what every other car company has done.

That's awesome! What sort of software did you use to build the interface? I mean, I'd assume either illustrator, PhotoShop, or Gimp, but clearly its more than just updated image files. Nicely done, very slick.

Please elaborate? How does HTC copy other phone manufacturers? They were the first one to come out with an Android phone. Their Sense UI is better than any other manufacturer's skin.

I used Gimp mainly. Essentially u have to draw it picture by picture in png format, then tell the phone to play it at however many frames (pictures) per second. Tedious but not too bad.

LOL EXACTLY! Hate the iPhone

I'm sure you could port it over to your Atrix. For now I believe it will only work for Sense based ROMs
