Good looking widgets - Xoom Themes and Apps

So, what widgets do you guys use, and which look the best on the xoom?

Widgets
I think most people (like myself) are liking the cleaner look and using Minimalistic Widgets to display majority of the typical information (Batt life, date, time, etc). And then Apps Organizer mixed with Desktop Visualizer for icon management.

How do I add clock & weather to home screen? Anderweb

Like the look of Anderweb Launcher and wondered how to add the clock and weather to home screen. What theme is this?

Fantastic widgets! Lot's of customization and tons of skins. Costs $1.50 .

Home replacement app.

Hi everyone @XDA,
i know there are plenty of home replacement apps available out there (ie. Launcher pro, adw, etc). In fact i just found out another one which is pretty neat, its the slidescreen by larvalab. It has a pretty neat interface, sleek n minimal.
I would love to know what other home replacement apps are available out there.
Is there just a scrollable dock app?
Thanks all!

Go Launcher is my favorite by far due to prrformance/customization.

Hd widgets

Just download a great, completely customizable weather, clock, settings widget. It's only 99 cents on the market right now. Perfect for my ever changing homescreen. So many themes. Give it a look. I added a couple of pics to show some of the colors and sizes.

I assume you're the developer. I could be wrong. I like the appearance of the widgets, are there anything more than the weather/clock widgets?
Thanks
Bought it. It's awesome. The widgets looks very elegant on my xoom's screen. The variety of widget sizes and looks make this one a great buy!
I was lucky enough to beta test this widget and it was a pleasure watching the developers upgrade and fix it over several months. They are quick to resolve issues and I purchased it as soon as it became available on market.
Edit: @ Saintfyre, the main 8x2 widget allows the forcast on right to be switched with a control panel similar to a power control widget. Things like BT, screen rotation, wifi can all be turned on/off. Beyond that, theyre just weather and clock. Its a replacement for Beautiful widgets.
@OP. What is the Theme you are using? And what is the small up arrow in the center of your notification bar?
First app I bought without much research, saw one review and small review at that in a blog, very happy I bought it, very nice widgets.
I decided to pick it up and was beating my head against the wall because I couldn't get the widgets to appear in the Xoom widget menu after long-pressing. Simple reboot takes care of it, for those who scratch their head like I did after configuring one and trying to find out how to place it. I like what I see so far. Thanks devs!

I believe he's either using a Galaxy Tab 10.1 or has found a way to run TouchWiz UX on a Xoom. Probably the first one. The arrow would be the shortcut TW has for the mini apps.

Sorry not the developer, just letting people know about the widget that I liked.
Yes, not a theme, I use a galaxy tab 10.1 now, but old habits like this forum die hard.

In your 3rd pic on the top you are using something that has large buttons as folders. What program does that?
Ok, while you're at it, where did you get that wicked Star Trek wallpaper? /drool
The folders are two apps. Desktop visualizer is a free app that lets you take almost any small picture and use it for a launcher button of any app or bookmark. Then you can resize it to whatever dimensions you want. I have that widget working with the app called folder organizer lite. You can put all your apps into different folders. Apply your own icon and resize away. It saves alot of screen area so you don't have 100 apps taking up real estate. I can post some pics if you want to see what it looks like. Both apps are free in the market.
And here is the uss enterprise wallpaper. But you have to use the multipicture live wallpaper (free) in order to get it to display correctly. Honeycomb crops the sh!# out of it.

Under the HD Widgets settings you can add and remove different sizes.
Won't update units from F to C. :crying:
But other than not knowing what 50 degrees F is, the app is awesome.
Edit: rebooted and now it works a charm. A+++

Animated weather widget.

Hi guys sorry if this rehashes an age old question but I am struggling to find what I am looking for.
I have both HD widgets and Beutiful widgets but what I am looking for it a weather widget that has animated forcast icons as well as current weather. On my home screen you can see I dont like a big daft clock with the weather I just want smaller icon style forecast and current but thought it would be cool if they are animated to. I have attatched a picture of my current home screen so you can get a better idea of what I want.

Weather Dependent Background Image

Hi there, newbie here!
I'm searching for an app which will change the wallpaper on my Xperia Z automatically based on the current weather conditions and time of the day. It needn't necessarily be a live wallpaper and could be a cool background image. I searched through this website and got a couple of similar posts but they were quite outdated apps.
Yes, Tasker has the exact solution I'm looking for but I'd prefer something less complicated and only for this purpose, Tasker seems to be an overkill.
So, if there are any good apps out there (preferably free or at least not too expensive), I'm all ears!
Thanks!

It has also free version but I don't know if live wallpaper is included.
I use weatherpro with changing backgrounds. Its NOT free
