Do you mean how to customize the home screen? If you're using Android just get a launcher like Nova, or Apex. It lets you do tons of things that the default Android launcher doesnt let you do.

Is that a stock launcher you are using or something else? Is that clock part of beautiful widgets? Really like the way it looks!

which app can I use to get such very nice screenshots?

If you're running a phone with ICS or Jelly Bean then just press volume down and power button at the same time. Will take a screenshot for you. Otherwise unless the function is built in to the ROM it normally needs root permissions.

I'm assuming Nik means rather than put up a nice screenshot, tell us the names of the widgets that are being used in it.

My lockscreen and main screen really haven't changed much, I think I have just found the comfort zone.

Using Widget Locker, Beautiful Widgets (Google Now weather theme) and MissedIt

Nice setup mrk was going to say that looked similar to others you had posted. Like you I think I've found a setup that holds all that I want in close enough reach and as you say "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

Looking through here though certainly does show that people are so different, there are some beautiful setups nice clean and minimal and then some what I would consider horrendous "clusterf***s" each to their own, but some peoples setups would give me a headache after 5 minutes.
