There are alot more skins than the ones in the list on the app itself.... I think they got a letter from HTC saying they can't put the ones that look like Sense UI's flipclock on the app anymore....so you need to look other places for skins...

It's pretty much that, but the colors inverted.

I found this one on their page under "Featured Skins", yet I STILL can't find it for the life of me. All the featured skins on their page are only images of the skins. Blah!

Wow, that's pretty damn close, to be honest I like it more. Still doesn't solve why the "Featured Skins" aren't for download on their site. Anyways, how do you find these skins? Just a simple google search and various sites have different people making skins for BW?

Also, how do I go about putting this specific skin on my device? TYIA!

HAHA! Thats awesome! We were on the same sites! I posted in that same thread, I saw your name, lol!! Thats great. Anywho, yeah, I downloaded the .zip from the other android forum and put the Airpot folder under "sdcard>beautiful widgets>wskins" and then I went, applied it and everything and it only changed my weather. The actual clock is still in that silly font. Are you having similar issues?

To be honest my friend, I think I am somehow just making this 20x more difficult than it really is

You can change the font in the settings for the beautiful widgets... you can also change the background transparency...etc...

Make sure you are hitting save&apply on the bottom of the settings page. Also sometimes it doesn't change right away, I had to wait a few seconds.

I do think you are making it harder! lol.

Funny you saw me searching for your skin!!

IF you have your phone hooked up to the computer with the disk mode enabled it will remove the skin you have applied since it is stored on the skin and not accessable to the phone while in disk mode..

Well I did have it in Disk Mode to transfer the files, although I removed the USB as soon as the file transfered. I also did an uninstall/reinstall to see if I had a bigger list when I searched for more skins. I don't still. Do you have a long list of skins when searching through the app?

I just powered off my phone and powered it back up thinking it could possibly fix the Airport Skin, sadly it hasn't.

Do you think it has something to do with my path being "wskins" instead of what people have been saying is just "skins"?


Sigh. This is just so weird about why this is even happening. I'm no genius but I certainly know how to follow instructions, lol. I've done just about everything you have done, and we used the same .zip folder for the skin. So bizarre. I don't know man, I appreciate everything you've done but I'm pretty sure it's something wrong on my end that I just can't seem to point out. Gotta head out to work too so hopefully I can resolve this silly issue later tonight.

Try renaming it to "skins".... might work.. mine is just skins... I do have a large list of skins to download and a bunch on the downloaded side..
