I know it all depends on personal taste but just curious to what peoples favorite themes are. I tried looking through the one forum of everyone showing their home screen, but it got hard to follow. Just looking for some good feedback from you guys.
 
A combination of things because no one theme has everything I want. As you said, personal taste.

Monochrome, Color Profiles, Eclipse 2. Weatherboard, Boover, DockShift, BytaFont 2, Lithium iWidgets, Anchor, More Icons StatusForecast, Zeppelin and OpenNotifier all combine on my Springboard to bring me this.

Which may not be what anyone else wants or likes, but it's mine. ;)

I like it, has a lot going on. I am using Ace Yose iOS 9 right now. Does winter board not put an app on the springboard anymore? I can only find it under settings, which isn't a big deal.

For Weatherboard, do the weather animations work based on the weather you're experiencing in your area or do you have to set it manually?

i also couldn't seem to get open notifier to work on iOS 8.4

Thanks! Yeah, it's taken a couple years to shake out how I like it. As far as Winterboard, yes, it's only in Settings now I believe.

Weatherboard simply transfers the animations from the Weather app to the homescreen/lockscreen. Whatever the Weather app is showing based on location info (GPS/Location Services) is the animation that will run. And for anyone wondering about battery I have never noticed any kind of a hit.

You need to add the beta repo. Search for the tateau repo, OpenNotifier.
 
I love theming my iDevice. In the past I've looked forward to LAGUNA and NEWPORT as my two go-to themes.
(KIWI back in the iOS6 days...)

Lately though, especially so with this current jailbreak, I've found myself going stock on the theme yet adding some light elements such as Iconomatic to give the stock icons some depth (and to remove the dock labels) along with LegacyKeypad. TransparentDock works well too (even on 8.4).

Your picture makes me want to get back into theming. Must..Look..Away
 
I've been using Ayeris for awhile now, haven't found anything else that I like enough to use.
 
Arc is what I'm using now combined with some other mods but I did my first jailbreak last week so just getting to know what is what.

I would post a pic but Apple can't seem to get something as simple as airdrop to work. Sometimes I do find Apple laughable.

Edit for screenshot.

Undoubtedly, Arc! Can't imagine switching to anything else for a long, long time.

Do you have don't starve on your iPhone? ^^^^^^^

Yessir! Runs great, too. Bought the game (iPad only), downloaded the .ipa, modified the .plist files and got it working on my iPhone 6 just fine. You'll need FullForce to stretch the game out as well. Will take some time getting used to the touch controls :/

IMHO, anything that is not that gawd-awful flat look.
