Hey, I have downloaded a few skins for the BW. I have uploaded them to where it needs to go. Data, BW, scskins. I go to change the theme it would say background skin corrupted. Is there another step or something I need to do? I really like the Obsidian theme as well as a few others.

are you sure they're in the right place? there's regular skins (just "skins") and "scskins" (super clock skins).

Here's a new cyan skin if u wanna test. the zip contents would go in the regular skins folder.

I have no clue, I downloaded them from this thread. I'll give it a shot on that one.

I did not know there was regular skins for the clock. Now I feel like a dummie. lol thanks

I like the theme you had me test. That is a sweet looking clock, it matches my Emolycious theme I bought and paid for on Crazy Home.

Anyone else still having issues with the weather being accurate? It says it's sunny out right now yet it's raining. I checked Accuweather (the engine I'm using) out and it at least says it's cloudy here.

Plus it's only giving a CityID and not the name anymore.

EDIT: Whoops, didn't realize this was purely a skin discussion thread, feel free to delete if it's out of line.

Hi,

I'm currently developing on my hobby time a skinmixer for Beautiful Widgets there : Android Experiment » Skin Mixer
It's still an alpha but works to mix the different parts of skins.

This way you can understand what permits the Super Clocks vs the normal clocks

Have a nice day.

If you're just wanting to remove the background completely, (and if you've got photoshop or Paint.net - free), you can just open the scskins folder, find the ICS clock, open the number background (you should be able to visually identify), erase that background and save. I mighta just made it sound complicated but it's not ;)

Here - I made it transparent: Unzip this folder into your beautiful widgets folder on your sdcard (should be under /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/scskins/)

Would anyone be willing to skin a clock for me? My dog chewed my damn laptop power cord so i can't do it myself, and I haven't found this skin yet. It's simple, just a black sense flip clock with the ice cream sandwich theme colored numbers. I'd really appreciate it, if this thread is still alive.

Just purchased the BW. I saw a few skins where the weather icon is on the right side of the screen. How would I move the weather icon or increase the size?

This is an interesting idea, but I can't figure it out. Is it still being developed?
