[Q] Looking for a specific widget - Galaxy S II Themes and Apps

Saw a youtube video (can't find it now) that showed a widget that was on his homescreen and not his dock where the widget could store apps and all he did swipe and it would scroll revealing a new app. Anyone know of a widget like this?

[Q] Blank Scrollable Widget

Does a "blank canvas" widget exist? I really like the contacts widget I currently have but would like to drop them into a widget to scroll through them instead of placing them directly on the screen. Hope that makes sense. I know there are contact widgets on the market that do that, but the style and look of Animated Widget Contact looks really clean to me. Thanks for the help!

[Q] Weather Widget not working

Noticed this morning that my weather widget (using Beautiful Widgets) is not updating even after trying to manually refresh it.
I removed the widget and when I re-added it to the home screen I got this message (see attachment): "Google ended their API Google Weather".
Is anyone else experience weather widget problems as well?

do as the message says and switch to accuweather.
Actually BW uses accuweather and it is not working either
Switched to "One more clock widget" for now. it's working beautifully.

Photo/video viewer widget

I like the way the stock widget works, but I wish the pics would fill most of the screen. Can anyone suggest a fix or 3rd party widget that does this? I want to be able to scroll through my pics, which the stock widget supports.

Digital clock question

Is there any way to remove the date from the digital clock? I have the stock weather widget running in the top right corner, which also shows the date, so it's redundant to also have it displayed in the clock, which is right below it.
Barring that, is there a recommended digital clock widget that has the same stock font, can be sized to the 4 x 2 of the stock clock, and had the option to display no date?
There are a ton of available clock and weather apps in the Play Store that have wigets, usually with more customization options than the stock Android versions. If you do a little trial and error testing it shouldn't take you long to find what you are looking for. You can also look for general widget apps like Beautiful Widgets which usually include clock and weather widgets because they tend to be the most popular.

This might get you started but if you don't find something to your liking there are a ton more in the Play Store. It shouldn't be hard at all to find either a digital clock widget or a weather widget that doesn't also display the date. There are also a lot of clock widgets that actually display the weather as well, so if you liked something like that you could use one widget instead of two and save yourself a little battery. I used to use one like that called Fancy Widgets but it didn't have as many customization options as some other widget apps.

Thanks for the advice. I did try several digital clock widgets, but every single one included a non-removable date. The HD Widgets in your link looks like it has what I need in it though, so I'll try that one out.
Thanks again!

Zooper widget missing but app says it's on screen

I recently drug my widget too close to the dock, it crashed nova launcher and widget disappeared. When trying to re-add it, I only get the default widgets for choices. If I open zooper directly, it says my widget is still on screen, but I can't see it. Any way to fix this or do I need to rebuild the widget?
