You techically answered your own question.
The two that I know of is Beautiful Widgets and Weather Widget. There is also a free version.
Fancy widget is the best ive seen for free!
There's a metamorph though that can give you the sense analog too, in case you're interested.
And congrats on becoming a mod binary

Fancy Widgets is quite nice.
It's working well so far, the weather is generally a degree or two off of my local news forecast, but I think that's expected since it's probably using a much broader weather feed.
I do wish it wasn't 3+ MB though. Oh well, can't have everything.
Hello all,
As a new user I'm apparently not allowed to post links at all until I'm verified. So that means you'll have to a little leg work to find some things if you're interested.
This is my customized phone. I used the same background in my blog; The icons I made in a roundabout way—Bobbyperux over at Deviantart, made a pretty all inclusive tutorial on how to make them. It even had a video. You'll need to know something about Photoshop and have a tiny bit of patience. I changed the font to futura and the color to white. Except for the android market, ha. Little color never hurt anyone. The phone is rooted, non-market apps are enabled, and I can sync to my itunes with ease. Mac user.
Anywho give it a whirl--the icon pack is called up to date icons.
Id like to change my icon set too. Do you have to be using launcherpro or can u change them on the stock TW?
Thx.

The news widget is called buzz box-- its pretty nifty. You can choose from a ton of sources within the actual widget and it updates the news all day. I don't know how it effects battery life, but my captivate seems to be dealing with it just fine.

Yes, its LauncherPro. On the home screen I used Folder Organizer, as LauncherPro could can only change dock icons.
Me having way too much time on my hands. Fully working and fully customizable widgets. Widgets layed out to mimic WP7. This is Running Launcher Pro Plus. NOT A ROM. Stock 2.1 w/update fascy Bloatware removed.
Watch it in action!

Very nice.
I was thinking about creating one for myself.
Would you mind telling me how to create these custom widget for Launcher Pro Plus?
I think I saw it somewhere else in xda but couldn't find it.
a sort of step-by-step instruction would be nice
Thanks in advance.
There is a very detailed post in the general android forums. Its called android phone 7.

Here's what I did, I didn't read any other forum on how to do this. I just wanted it so I just basically did it how I would do it.
First, get launcher pro plus. You need LPplus so you can resize widgets. Hide your notification tray, empty out the bottom dock.
I'm using "Desktop Visualizer" on my Android phone. Check it out here: http://whatsonyourandroid.appspot.com/details?p=jp.co.bii.android.app.dskvzr
Download desktop visualizer from market. Then download icons from google images. Then just add the DV widget like normal. It will instruct you which app to use, super easy. Then just resize everything like you want it. Then repeat.
Did you not have any problems with Desktop Vis slowing down your phone? On my Droid OC'd to 1,000 it made my screens super laggy having around 16 widgets total.

Thanks a lot for your instruction.
I'll give it a shot.
Thanks.
Maybe slightly work on the wording fitting into the icons instead of floating. I have the original set on mine for the past week and love it. Was working on new icons myself haha.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
Can get a screen shot of yours. It was very difficult to even come close with the wording. Resizing the widget also resizes the position of the words. Couldn't figure out the right rhythm.
That is freakin dope! I might try to do something this weekend..

I have mine posted in the screen shot topic. Best way to use those icons is with Desktop Vizualizer and run LPP.

Yea I saw your theme and that inspired me to do mine. I sent you a private message a week ago, about how you did yours, no response. So I had to do it a way I only knew how to. Using the desktop visualizer, a very rough way making custom icons.

Yep. Launcher Pro + DV + GIMP + Sick Day. lol.
I like the concept, but not the Win7 icons that are out there. I will probably take the time to fit everything better size wise later, but this was fun.
How did you get more control of the title icons. Using DV I didn't have much options with the resizing of the title.

put the title in the image you create.
The image and the title move dependent with each other using DV. I'm sorry im not understanding. Its very tricky cause the title and image are preset its just manipulating the size.

I didn't use the titles in DV. I built them into the images.

Ohhhh gotcha! thanks
Anyone have or know how to do a nice set of transparent images for thee beautiful silent and vibrate widgets? Metamorph or just they images alone, I know how to inject them into the apk. Thanks a bunch in advance

Bump. Anybody?
Sent from my better built sammy iphone knockoff
I'd use apkmanager to extract the apk, edit or replace images and recompress, sign and install. Or make a metamorph to inject into the beautiful Widgets apk.
Hope it helps.

As I said I already know how to do that part, I'm just no artist and wondering if any one already has or can whip up some for transparency

I am not exactly an artist but I can make things transparent, Is it just those two widgets you are referring to beautiful silent and vibrate widgets?
EDIT: See attachments, is that what you had in mind?
Yea those are the widgets, that is probably perfect. The widgets as they are, are just way too bulky and seem huge on the screen as compared to other icons. Thanks a bunch!

Try Switch Pro (market/ may work for ya)
there are transparent themes for bw in the app itself...
That's great... if I used the full version of BW but alas I don't, I only require the silence and vibrate so I just have the beautiful silent and vibrate app..

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+++
