Make System Text Bold?

Hi All,
Is there anyway to make System Text, such as contact names in search, text messages etc BOLD to help my failing eyesight?

kevwright: try the app CETuner. It will allow you to make and test themes right on your device. You should be able to make a nice high contrast theme and change the font metrics etc.

PS I had some seriously bad eye sight, so know whereof you speak; you have my sympathy.

Thanks, although what I really need is a pair of those glasses

[Q] alternative to datepicker widget?

Hi all,
I'm wondering if it is possible to get an alternative to the native datepicker widget:
{
"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"
}
The reason I am looking for this is that I think that the default widget is clumsy. Things like next week Thursday are a pain to find with the default widget, since the days are not displayed, and you can not see the relation of the different weeks.
While googling this, I found several app developers who found this same issue, and build there own solution (for example here and here).
Does anyone know if it's possible to replace the default widget and if there was an attempt made to do this?
Thanks.

[widget] 4.2 analog clock + second hand!

An upgraded version of the analog clock widget from android 4.2 (as seen on the Nexus 4), with a ticking second hand!
It bugged me that the widget wasn't as good as the clock app, so I made this. Enjoy
Notes:
| The widget may cause a little bit of lag on older devices, as it is updating itself every second
| No ads or anything

I would like to ask if you are so kind and share the eclipse project for this?
I can't find anything like this for weeks.

Overlay

Hi guys and girls.
just thought id give the app "Overlays" a mention.
Basically it allows you to float any of your installed widgets on top of your screen so that they are still visible when using your apps/browser etc.
The app also allows you to size and set the transparency of the widgets.
Its really easy to use and there is a lite version for you to play with - see more at the XDA portal thread.....
Overlays Thread
Its pretty cool and well worth a shout, especially for us tablet owners :good:

SCREENSHOT
Here is a snap of this thread, you can see my bookmark widget on the right and also my Sonos player widget just below it
