Semi-Transparent widgets used in some builds? - Android Apps and Games

One of the early gingerbread builds I flashed onto my HD2 had great widgets as replacements for the default system widgets; they looked just like the gTabSiMiClock. Something like this:
{
"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"
}
They all had the single semi-transparent band that would go from end to end of the screen. Does anyone know where I could either find more apps that have this style by default or how to mod the default apps to have this?

[MOD REQ] Launcher2 with more screens

As the title indicates, I was wondering if someone could possibly edit/mod the Launcher2.apk found in CM 5.0.6 to add more home screens preferably 7 if not more. I'm sure there are other people that would like this feature but I dont not know how to do it otherwise I would.
And YES I know about HelixLauncher2 but I do not like that launcher because it does not have the 5 column tray and seems to not fling through the app list as fast as Launcher2 from CM. Although it does have the short cuts which is nice but I dont like how it does not have the dots to show which screen you are on.
Here are 2 ways I've found from other Launchers that you could incorporate the addition of more home screens.

{
"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",

[Q] Widgets name labels showing in old style

Hi All,
I'm having problems with some widgets name labels. They appear in old no sense style, with a gray padded box around them. (see image, it's kinda hard to describe)
Is this a application issue because a widget is not the same as a shortcut? or is there anything i can do about this?
Got it in a couple of apps, GO SMS and SMS unread counter.
Thx in advance!
Example:
{
"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"
}
Widget =\= shortcut, even if the widget is a shortcut.
thx for your reply,
so basicly the developer is the only one who can make these changes.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

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.

I like Shadow! XIcon is the app will help you add Icon with Shadow to your launcher.
Please notice that it's ALPHA only now, everything may changes, and it's my first app, I am a noob to Android development, so this app will MUST be buggy
{
"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"
}
How to use:
Pick the Xicon widget in your launcher, then select your icon, and shadow style.
Changelog
0.0.1 - ALPHA release.
Great idea buddy!
Why it stop working? Kitkat here..
I can add it as a widget but nothing appears (transparency is ok here). Not showing anything.
So when I delete the widget it says: Xicon stopped.
Nice idea but I guess need Nova support
