launchers with backgrounds

[whitesix]

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has some suggestions on 3rd party launchers that:

1. support custom background pictures
2. the end user can create his own background images

I tried Yishow, but unfortunately it won't run on my NX70. But if that's the best one, I'm willing to try maybe a newer version???

Thanks for any suggestions...:cool:

ZLAUNCHER (http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?sid=96846820030131075222&prodID=43812)

Yishow

If you want to use YiShow, there are two versions of it. You DON'T want to use the YiShow for Clie version. Use the one called YiShow for Palm.

But I would still try ZLauncher, I think you'll probably like it more:D

Just get it HERE (http://www.palmgear.com/software/showsoftware.cfm?sid=96846820030131075222&prodID=43890)

 

This one's for OS5

I, too, fully recommend ZLauncer over anything else out.

Look here for a comparision chart. Keep in mind that Megasoft2000 just released Megalauncher v4.0 today.

Thats a very good comparison especially for people looking for a Launcher to buy and dont know what to get.

I didn't want to unduly influence choice, but I use ZLauncher, CDII rocks!

Me too.

There is also Facer. It doesn't have all the bells and gadgets of the others. But it does have two things the others don't: a Today page and a small footprint. <500K including skin. Most of the others are running close to 1MB in size. I am not affiliated with Pocketcraft in any way.

What does Zlauncher have that YiShow doesn't. I don't mind adding another Launcher to my list.

Silverscreen, LX, YiShow, (zlauncher maybe).

Is it me or are there very few OS5 compatible skins for zlauncher, I like it better now than silver but there is a lack of themes right now, if there are a bunch, someone tell me.
thanx

MEGALAUNCHER 4 is great !! but with all my progs (and the brillant powerrun) it now takes up over 1 mb!!!!! still i think it's worth it - they now have backgrounds and icons free to download on their website! thought launcher plus was very good as well (all hi-res)

Is there a way to make your own backgrounds in ML 4? And is there some way to use .JPG images? It looks like the support for backgrounds is very limited, but maybe I was missing something.
