[Q] Accuweather app background? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, wonder if someone could answer a quick question for me.
I've been seeing screen shots of S3 home screens and noticed that there are two types of backgrounds for the Accuweather app, the one with the green field with a tree, and another one which show closeup of the blades of grass.
I was wondering how one switches between the two styles. I've enclosed two screenshots to show the the two backgrounds (I realize the weather condition is different from one to the other):

"lightbox_download": "Download",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

It changes automatically according to day, night and weather.

just create a new picture with the size 240x320 in your favourite picture application and place whatever picture over it an resize as wanted.
keep it as homogeneous as possible and as dark as possible for the content.
so you can read the text on the startpage.
for some reason the picture is actually moved upwards for the heigth of the bottom menu bar.
here are a few short creations (tpic diving/swimming/scouting/misc strange nature + signs): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/27576/s740walls.zip

[Q] Sense 3.0 Lockscreen, calender dates

Hi,
over the past years I used a HD2 with a Goa Rom and Cookies Home Tab.
I loved to have a calender with the next dates on my lockscreen - would it be possible to customize the Sense 3 locksccreen with some widgets as well?
Phone is already rooted.
Thanks in advance!
same here!
I'd love my lock screen to show my latest appointment (or event or birthday etc) like that of the WP7 lockscreen! With the wallpaper lockscreen, I find that I have a lot of empty space just waiting to be filled!

Location (Place) of Event

Would a Dev Be Interested In Making a Lock Screen App?

So the facebook home app is great as a lock screen, kinda. It has two major flaws, the first being that it doesn't show notifications for any apps other than facebook and messenger. The second being that all that facebook crap is going on in the background. So, here is my idea, a facebook home styled lock screen replacement that has beautiful system wide notifications and no facebook integration! I opened photoshop and threw together a quick mockup:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So are there any devs interested in helping this become real?
I hope there is someone! I would like this

Homescreen Screenshot thread

I hadn't seen anyone start one, but I thought it might be fun to see any cool ideas people had come up with for watch home screens. Or lock screens or anything worth shamelessly copying.
So, I'll start. Here's my launcher screen. I mocked the WP8 theme when I first saw Loki had included it, but I think it works really well for puttling lots of info on the watch screen and accessing it quickly. I set the background transparency to 25% so just a little of the live wallpaper shows through. Nothing else really special.

UCCW: Why Transparant gif turns white.

This is freaking me out as a beginner in using UCCW, and I would be happy if someone could help me with this.
Why I cannot use a gif file as a background in UCCW without get the transperant part as a white background in the widget?
Yes I know about the Alpha function. But then my details turns transperant as well. And I don't want that.
Even with adding the file as an image (not as background), the same happends.
Attaching 2 pictures as an example. One i made in GIMP with 100% transperant background, and one screenshot from the phone where I had to put Alpha on 50% to make it transperant enough without loosing the details.
