Has anyone used the Facer launcher on their iQue? Does it work fullscreen?

I've been extremely happy with Launcher X. But I've been really wanting something with a more beautiful interface that remains uncluttered. I tried SilverScreen a few days ago and was saddened to see that it does not support the full screen of the iQue, which is a dealbreaker. ZLauncher is well beyond what I'd like to use for RAM, and has a cluttered interface for my taste. Facer looks promising, but after searching I notice that it has not come up once in this forum. It has some of the most beautiful skins I've seen on a Palm launcher. Check it out here. (http://www.pocketcraft.com/facer.php)

Yes,
I have Facer on my iQue, and it does go full screen. You'll need to make sure you download themes that are full screen too.

Facer runs nicely and is a nice Today page along with App Launcher.

Thanks so much for the reply mtnmunch. I think I will definitely give it a shot then.

As far as today pages go, I am currently using Wassup, which works like a charm though it isn't free. I tried Today, but still prefer Wassup.

Awwww...scratch that.

I installed Facer and was immediately extremely happy with the beautiful appearance once I enabled a theme I'd found. But alas, while the launcher is indeed a gorgeous fullscreen view, there is no way to bring up the virtual graffiti area at all while using the launcher. I couldn't even edit the category list as a result. I also didn't like how it got to and from the application lists. Launcher X beats the heck out of it as far as usability goes. So it goes back on my iQue.

I only wish there were more attractive skins for Launcher X. I'd be especially partial to an OS X Panther skin that matches the beauty of the one I found for Facer. I want beauty with no bloat! That sounds like a newspaper personal ad, but I mean it.
