is this weather app called weather widgets exactly in the market place? can find one called weather widget, not sure if its the right one!

many thanks
 
thanks. never heard abt it. is it better than LP plus. more customisations??
I prefer Zeam as its quite basic, people seem to prefer LP
. The battery in the top bar is called circular battery indicator, I don't think its in the market, I'm sure I found it in a link somewhere in this thread. The bottom dock in Zeam is able to have more than just 6 icons, its a scrolling dock, I currently have 8, 2 are unseen until you scroll
 
Hi everybody.
For the last couple of days I have been abusing this thread in the attempt to make my own customized home screen. Now I am done and thought that I wanted to share the result with you all.

I had two demands for my home screen, simplicity and usability.

I dropped the lock screen, my phone is always in a pouch and I have to press the top button to activate the phone, so the lock screen did not seem necessary.
I also found out that I don't need 7 home screens, so I actually ended up with only two. All the apps I use on my phone is only two "clicks" away, so its still very usable and very simple.
I am using LauncherPro, Desktop Visualizer and Folder Organizer.

My home screen:
New%20home.png

Top row: Two Folder Organizer Folder links (see my last image)
Next row: Digital Clock Widget
Next row: Extended Controls
Bottom row: Smooth Calendar
In the dock: Messages, Gmail, Phone, Direct calling and Contacts

My home screen #2:
New%20home%20II.png

Top row: Beautiful Widgets 4x1 weather widget
Next row: Four Folder Organizer Folder links
Next row: Folder Organizer Folder link and shortcut to Google Car Home
Bottom row: Open for additions
In the dock: Google Listen, Calculator, Apps, Notes and Music

My home screen with activated Folder Organizer link:
New%20home%20with%20menu.png

Here you can see my access to the apps in my Internet folder on my home screen.

The background, as you can see, is from the Adidas brown leather wallpaper, which others in this thread also have been used. I have removed the Adidas logo and now it matches my brown leather pouch perfectly.

Simple and usable...
 
TBH I don't think it does mate, I haven't bothered looking as I don't use that feature, but I don't ever remember reading anything about it scrobbling.

It does have scrobbling functionality yes. whether it works with LastFM i don't know as I use scrobbling to update song ratings with iSynchr.
 
Hey, is there any way to remove the weather from Beautiful Widgets and only use the clock? I tried using the resize trick with LauncherPro Plus, but it cut the top and bottom part of the widget. I have seen pictures of it done, I just don't know how to do it properly.

But that only hides the icon, there is still the temp, high and low temp and the date under the clock. I am trying to make it look really slick and remove all of that.
