[Q] What do you think of this Google Now / Holo inspired Android UX redesign? [WIP] - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got inspired by the design of Google Now and the new Play Store, so decided to give it a go on the Android settings, and battery menu. I'm hoping that Google goes towards this direction with Key Lime Pie, I don't really like the dark menus.
What do you guys think?
Would anyone be interested in helping me make a CM10.1 theme out of this?

looks good. Im pretty sure that this is what google is planning for the new ui in klp. The new playstores ui is similar to this-(holo light theme, with brighter colours)

Using your phone at night would burn out your retinas if Google are planning on using a theme like this. Also light themes are bad on AMOLED devices for both battery and display life. On the bright side, your mockup drawings are perfect.

I WANT THIS SO BAD! I've been searching around all day looking for something like this and I was shocked to find it doesn't exist. Seems like a no-brainer to me...
Nice work, by the way.

[APP] Simple Text - Great App!

I'm a big fan of text icons on the dock bar... I've always done it with templates and photoshop, until now.
Here is the app:

Here is a screenshot of about 2 minutes using the app.... way too easy. I find myself making text icons all the time now.

I had used this app a few times it is super easy to use. For those who like minimal themes its a definite good choice.
Looks interesting.
Thanks for the tip Callip.
Looks clean & works great!
^ That looks awesome man, now all you need to do is make the circle launcher transparent. Big fan of that setup.
I can't believe I am just getting around to this - I really like text icons and spend way too much time trying to seek them out. Inevitably I don't like one or more of the options, but with this, you just make them.
Go Gators!

Lockscreen weather and notifications

I've been looking round for a bit, ever since I got my nexus 7, for something with a nice clean interface, where I can view all my notifications, the weather, the time and maybe some other things, but i've not found anything that suits my needs.
Android has a beautiful lockscreen and, especially on tablets, has quite a bit of spare room. I realise that lockscreen notifications is going into Apple territory slightly, and have no idea if the addition of this by Google would cause them any repercussions, but I think it would be a nice feature for them to add to this increasingly beautiful OS.
I had a few minutes so I threw something quick together to put my thoughts across as to what a good lockscreen notification system would look like in my opinion.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If anyone has seen something like this that I have missed, please let me know. I think this would be a nice addition to the lockscreen.
Ask and you shall receive!

Hey everyone. I released a new version of my app, Tablified Market HD and I'd really like for you guys to check it out.
Tablified Market HD is the largest database of Android tablet apps. It is a curated list of apps that have been specifically designed to take advantage of the screen real estate of your tablet.
We've completely revamped this version with a brand new Holo interface. We replaced the aging list view with a beautiful, snappy grid view-similar to what the Google Play store offers. The UI itself was inspired from the Google Now cards.
We add apps constantly. Featured graphics are changes out every couple weeks and apps are added every 1-2 days depending on what we find. Remember, if developers don't make tablet apps, we have nothing to add.
I hope you enjoy my app!

I'd like to personally take Elias Manuel for coming up with the original concept!

[Q] Where to find good app icon + game logo designers?

Hello,
I just finished my first project (an air-hockey game) and I am looking for an excellent designer that could create an icon + a logo for my game. But since I'm looking for something flawless, can you advise me where I can find such designers? I tried with someone, but unfortunately the quality was pretty poor. So I'm looking for someone more talented.
This is approximately the quality of design I am looking for:

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
PS: First time posting here, so tell me if I'm doing something wrong.
Thanks guys.
Is that a gameplay image? or would that be the 'title page' screen?
Always happy to help if you want to PM me some images and game name

Thanks for your reply. No it's actually the style of the design I would want for my icon on the google play.
If you want an idea, you can also check glow hockey and glow hockey 2 to have an other idea of what I'm looking for as esthetic for that icon. Unfortunatly I can post links here yet.
I would also need a logo to add on the homepage of the game. I'm looking for neon-like fonts with glow effect.
