Well, in my case; I would probably want a SMALL icon with text and NO transparency to cover up just the temps from the other widget. For a more general case I totally agree with you though.

What I want in the end is a very large WP icon set (maybe like half screen) that can look somewhat like TF3D weather. I assumed it would be harder to make that sort of thing, so I thought that putting a diff weather widget on there (weather plus - manila, from mrskips widget pack) and then covering it up might be an easier task.

Maybe I will look into making icons myself, but I am very busy so if anyone else wants to undertake this they can lol. If not, I'll get to it sometime maybe.

Thanks for the quick response, and obviously most of all for this entire app and whatnot everyone!
