Creating icons in application activity and making them transparent

I want to create icons as something like this image or something like on the homepage of quickr. If I use custom gridview for this as in this (of course in my case I need the text below the image ), then adding listeners to that would be difficult I guess. Should I use buttons for that with the image and text below that provided the background is transparent? If so which layout I need to use? Or is there any icon view facility in android like other views such as button and imageviews, so that we can modify as per our requirement.

GridView will be the best option to do this and why dont you ask your graphics guy to add text with image.

You should use button for that.

<Button
  android:id="@+id/btnIconName"
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:drawableTop="@drawable/iconimage"
  android:text="IconTitle" />

For showing icon you should use android:drawableTop and for iocnTitle use android:text Property.

I hope my answer is helpful to you.
