What I mean is icons that move with there own animation? I have just one icon on the middle of my screen it's my app launcher I'm using patterns live wallpaper it looks awesome but if like to have the icon be like a (nucleus) or whatever or just something that looks good and is circular and be moving within the live wallpaper ,a spinning globe or something
Is it not possible?
Well with the way Android works right now, even animated widgets aren't possible. The only reason you see them in Sense is because of the framework HTC built for Sense. You see plenty of flip-clock clones, but none of them actually flip because, as far as I know, it just isn't possible yet.
It would be a cool feature, but its not possible. Yet.

Looking for the files for the stock news and Weather widget ? Running ADW ex launcher, and it doesn't show it for some reason ? Can I install those separately ?
To me ADW, is a must have on the EVO-3D, because it allows for customizing the amount of rows of icons, and having 5 rows high of apps is a must on the higher resolution of the 3VO, because stock, with just 4 rows seems ****ed up, like to much space between widgets.
Sent from my EVO-3D waiting for Myn's ROM
UPDATE;
I had an old apk from my EVO 4G, was clear/transparent News & Weather widget. I threw that onto my 3VO SD/Card, and all set
I'm also using an alternative launcher (Zeam Launcher) and would like to use some of the HTC widgets, yet those are only available when using Sense. What apk did you use (for example to get the weather widget back)? I imagine I can find it on the webs?
Does anyone have the stock non transparent News and Weather widget apk ? Now I don;t like the totally clear background, makes it harder to read, I prefer the black background, or even better would be a semi-transparent with dark grey background, sort of see through.
Anything out there ?
Does anybody have any nice lookin weather screen? with animations and all for different times of day etc. Knightwolf/Warm has a few cool lookin ones, lookin for any crazy ones like that. The blue space/fantasy themes are always cool. The file is obviously IdleScreen_Weather.apk . Always lookin for new styles to tweak out the phone
Not sure if this is what you're looking for but Beautiful Widgets in the market has themeable widgets and animations and a huge library to go through. You might be able to create your own fairly easy to work with it too. It's very very similar to the sense clock/weather widget.
I've switched to Beweather Pro though, It's not much different than sense's either but supports push weather alerts. No theming though
gonna check it out thanks
Ok I am running Miui with adw launcher ex and I am trying to make a clean theme with minimalistic text. I cannot seem to get the minimalistic text widget to lay flush with the screen however. (see below pic) The right side and the bottom will not lay flush with the screen. I have seen plenty of screens look sooo clean using miui and minimalistic text and adw launcher but I cant for the life of me figure out how to get this set up going. Also it seems that when people make this clean themes that their icons are spaced closer together and I would like to know how to do that to if anyone who customizes their phone in this manner knows how. I would really appreciate and answer at the very least on how to make the widget lay flush with the screen. Any help on these kinds of customizations though are welcome!
Good Luck!
Although I can't help you with the widget touching all sides (I've had that problem, it sucks) I can help you with getting your icons closer together. Some where in the settings of ADW Launcher (Maybe like Homescreen or Icons) In there look for something that says, "Rows and Colums" and adjust them to your liking. On default, most android phones are set up at 4x4.
It's because you are hiding the dock. For whatever reason the alignment is off when the dock is hidden. I've emailed them about it but no reply..

I'm looking for a clock widget that looks good in both portrait and landscape modes. I'm tired of clock widgets that look like crap when the launcher is in landscape mode (or, if they look good in landscape, they look like crap in portrait), like HD Widgets or Beautiful Widgets.
I've only found one widget that changes its layout completely (read: not just stretches in one dimension and contracts in the other) to adjust itself to its new allocated area: Accuweather. See the attached images for what I mean. Notice the layout is completely different, and nothing overlaps/looks stretched/tiny. Both modes look great.
Now, my problem with Accuweather is that I'm looking for something darker, that looks better with the wallpaper. Do you know of some widget that does the same as Accuweather (different layouts for portrait/landscape) and allows customization?
Thanks!
So... nothing? Nobody knows of a clock/weather widget that is intelligent enough to use different content layouts depending on its available space?
I was wondering if themer can allow us to put small pieces of images, or shapes into a screen, to make screens more eye-catching.
Why i´m asking this?
Some themes (like SKY theme) are just GREAT on images, but they uses dividers, ribbons, trays, or boxes, all drawed together with the wallpaper. Some guys, like me can be free to change just the picture, but keep the other graphic elements, shapes and lines that make the theme so interesting.
Other lack of funcionality is that sometimes I try to add a new page to a theme, and we have problems to make it 'similar' to the other ones existent on the theme, due to wallpaper differences and other things... One-click theming is awesome, but some guys cant stand it and go ahead with customizations :cyclops:
Do you themer guys think this might be a good idea or this can be a problem for memory comsumption point.

Have fun, once Zooper Widget also becomes integrated you'll be able to create shapes there too :laugh:
