Currently using, very nice widget. If possible the option to use custom fonts would be nice, also the ability to choose the fill colour as well as the outline.

First two are included in 0.9

Looks nice. Tap to open app is cool. I will be honest. Right now it's just like every other digital clock out there. Some things I can see that may set you apart.
1. A different name. everything is named "X clock" name it something like "Tom's Super Sexy Timepiece of the Future"
2. Add a feature to adjust scale. I have a big open space on my home screen for a nice free digital clock.
3. Integrate a multi-alarm system and/or datebook depending upon your level of ambition
4. Animations? Have a little man in a funny suit blow a horn on the screen when the alarm goes off and you have to punch the little [email protected]#tard to shut off your alarm
5. Multi-language? I dont speak any others but I have heard some people do
6. Borders around the clock
7. ability to control font and scale of date separately
who the hell am I? Lol. Looks nice, will continue using it. Does it auto-update?
LOVE the GREEN goes perrfect with sculpted

TASKER/LOCALE PLUG-IN
In case you use Tasker/Locale application, I have included plug-in which displays "dynamic" text on your homescreen.
USAGE:
1. in the TEXT WIDGET set up unique name in advance settings (name, which will be used for communication between widget and Tasker/Locale application)
2. in the Tasker/Locale application create task and include this plugin. To set up the plugin, set the same name as used in widget and add any content to be displayed on the Android homescreen.
Tasker application allows variable replacement, so that it becomes very powerful tool for you if you are familiar with this application.

just downloaded on my Desire, it's a great first released, very customisable, good start man, keep it up
I'm looking for something like this, but that allows for multiple quotes and then randomly selects one. It can either be a background update or to change on click.

Yes, I know about it.
I believe this could be one of the next functionality addon.
@tampiss , first thing i tried is to add multiple widgets each with different text, but it's not possible like klaberr said... each widget should have it's own text .
and would you consider adding more font size if u plan another release ? maybe to 40 or 50

yes sure, the font size is not problem. will be add in next release.
can you upload the apk here please.
Nice app. Love it.
Could you possibly include an option to put a shadow/outline for the font? So that the words will stand out against colourful background.
Thanks!
Love it, really good work and a perfect idea
Please add different widget sizes.
very nice! highly customisable compared to Simple Text. looking forward to the next update. thanks for sharing!
great idea, I really like it. can you please add cyan as a color option? #00ffff thanks
This is very cool and very smooth I love it! Maybe on future releases you can add font packs? Or maybe like an addon like with handcent so it doesn't make the app too big
Like this!
apk file please
Please add apk here.... Much easier than having to move from laptop to phone to download.

Bugs and Suggestions (complaints?)
Well, if you like it, hate it, have suggestions, or find bugs then post here. I may not be able to respond to every post, but I will read everyone of them. I promise. (full-time job, 2 kids, 1 cat, RC Helicopters, and oh yeah, dev?)
To do:
- ?ability to override/disable color chooser (tiny bit easier on battery)?
- ? remove App Tray Icon in pro version?
- Change Shadow Chooser background back to White
- Override user background photo on choosing new background?
- Ability to use user supplied face and hands.
V1.0

- Set widget to check and restart service if missing ever 30 minutes
- Fixed size of user chosen custom background.
- Adjusted glass and background to same radius.
V0.6

- Remembers last location in chooser
- Remembers last screen in chooser
- Ability to lock clock
- Better landscape chooser
- More parts!
- Nice Icon
- Attempt to launch Alarm on touch (Pro)
- Custom Background image choice (Pro)
- Color selector for all all parts (Pro)
- Skew/Stretch/Shrink clock (Pro)
- Hour off-set (Pro)
V0.5
- Infinite Color choices for most parts
V0.4
- 4.2 minor update. Glass was not saving properly.
- Added Glass
- Cleaned up Edges, added a couple more Edge
- changed how settings are stored
- Reduced lines of code
- Think I fixed "Binder Error" on updating

. - 'How to use' info.
. - About and Contact
V0.3

- Fixed crash on some upgrades

- Added option for 2x2, and 3x3 clocks on top of the native 4x3.
v0.1
- Market launch
- Tabbed graphics choose (with no preview)
- 4x3 widget
Do you want to have your clock included?
If you are a better graphic artist than me and you would like your clock parts included in this application then get in contact! Make sure these graphics are yours and that you are okay with them being used royalty free.
Guidelines:
- The PNG is 294x294 with transparencies.
- Clock face, background and uh... other stuff should fit inside 280x280 (or inside a circle that is 280 across).
- Hands should be in separate graphics (minute, hour) and the pin/center needs to be centered on 147x147.
- I can send some layered guides in layered Gimp (.xcf) or separated into separate PNG format if needed.
To Do/Future/Maybe/Like-to-haves:
DONE - 8 bit graphics, currently using 4bit (ARGB4444) graphics to avoid crashing.
- Option - Choose to launch Android Alarm Clock on next click (Pro?)
- Ability to load local custom images (Pro?)
- Create pop-up notification that asks the user if they want to customize the clock when it is clicked. Dialog would time out after about 2 seconds (configurable?). Would save from accidentally opening clock configuration when using touch screen.
SOME - Clean up graphics and add improved graphics.
- Pro Version? - Possible Pro-options: extended graphics, loading custom images, Date, etc.
DONE - Glass as a separate selection from face and shadow (current problem is that it would require displaying another bitmap. It currently displays one bitmap {built from canvas} under the arms of the clock.)
- Remember user selection after leaving and returning to configuration activity(s)
- Add the current date and/or day of the week and/or month in a few locations on the clock display.
- Add the option of displaying a digital clock (also skin-able?) in a few places on the clock
- Possibility of future clock Packs. These could be themed and also the clock package could be open sourced so that artists do not have to release their clock packs through me, but can publish them directly to the market. Imagine a Minimalist pack, a Deviant Art pack, a Girly pack (you know, hearts, rainbows…)
- Add Easter eggs

At this point the 2x2 clock fits a clear QVGA screen, and the chooser seems to work, even though it is a bit squished. I think my official line is that it 'works' for QVGA, but is not currently supported.
The clocks them selves should work on any resolution screen (though they should not be stretched past a 4x4 icon space). But the chooser is not optimised for very high or very low resolution, but should work just fine.
I have released 0.3 of the clock and will update the first post today. Version .04 should be coming out before new year and will contain clearer clock edges and higher color graphics to support better gradients.

Ok, please enable it in market for QVGA. Now I'm tested, it works correctly for all sizes (2*2, 3*3, 4*3).
Thank you!
Installed and running very well on HTC Desire, Thanks, and Have a great christmas..
Could be a seasonal theme, possibility..
barcode is not working, rapidshare has reached limit???
Would love to download but like previous post RapidShare has reached limits and QR code not working.
This looks great, I was able to make one look exactly as I wanted. Only thing holding me back from using it is no access to alarms when tapping it like the stock clock widget. If you could add in this functionality it would probably immediately be the best clock widget on the market and worth paying a couple bucks for.
I can't find it in the market and i can't download it. Could've you upload it to xda?

I'll second this comment -- the typical use case for a clock widget is to fiddle around with it for a while until you get one you like, after which you probably won't change it for a while. Once it is set up, it's much more convenient to be able to access the alarm when you tap on the clock.
If the widget provided easy access to the alarm, I would definitely use it since the clocks themselves look great!
awesome clock i am digging it , nize work my brotha from anotha motha

Like kgbrown247 wrote we cant download it...can someone upload app here?
Sorry guys. it should be available from the market. Just search for Custom Clock. Should be right at the top. I will have to check the links and either fix (or remove) the Rapid Share link. I will also try to upload the newest version.
Love the 'thanks' messages and the screenshots! i would love to see more screenshots! Maybe I will upload my current. Home.
I am hoping to release a newer version soon, and hopefully it it might be ready for 1.0 releasise. When that happens I may keep the AD supported option with fewer options and graphics. Then release an AD free version with full options for $2, $1 or maybe $.50. LOL
Working on some new graphics and adding a Glass option for the next release. v1.0 I hope to have completely costomizable colors, and maybe the options to load a user chosen graphic for the Face.

Wonderful. I look forward to seeing this evolve. 1x1 would be a great option for those sensitive to screen flora
Btw. Search market for "custom clock widget" and it will rise above the pay for dross that it renders obsolete.

Ha!. Thank you.
I will consider a 1x1 widget if I get enough requests. I did not want to clutter it up too much. (BTW it resizes well from 4x4 to 1x1 if you are using a custom launcher like ADW or Launcher pro.)

Yep, couldn't follow on the provided link when I downloaded the second time.
EDIT: Just do a Market search with the app's title. It should return with two results; one for the free and another for the paid version.
can u put it on androidpit.de =) it would be nice because i cant pay with googles service.
haha , now i can remove clocks widget! saves processes
wow the donate version is much better! *Purchased*
MHO:
-selectable date format (dd/mm/yyyy - mm/dd/yyyy)
-an option to swap top/bottom colors it could be helpful
-something about the battery meter, something simple? like an extra line or even text?
Purchased! I second the wishes for selectable date format, but option for 24hr clock is also very useful.
thanks for a great live wallpaper!
option for 24hr clock plz
and thx !
Suggestion,
1. Date format configuration, dd/mm/yyyy, d/m/yy and etc
2. Time format configuration, AM/PM, 24 hrs.
Time and date is too big for QVGA screen (240x320px) X10 Mini. Maybe you can make a fix ?
just purchased the donate version

Done, just two quick examples I have on my phone right now.
Posted 0.2 also added another screenshot to show the canvas layout ability.
Your dock is good
By fully editable, does this mean it will work on a Tab, 5x1 or 5x2? It looks really nice, and I am looking for something for weather on a Tab. Thanks for your work on this, even if it doesn't work on a Tab I will put this on my Fascinate or D1.
I played with it for almost 10 minutes and couldn't even figure out hoe to show a clock. All i see are color and alignment settings. Color and alignment of what i can't figure out.

Yes it supports those widget sizes. It is very easy to add additional sizes if one is desired.

After you add the first panel (canvas or stack) then you long press to add other elements. After talking with another user I see there is a need for a simple editor in addition to the advanced editor. I'm open to ideas on how that should work.
Such a good work!
Thanks, knoxcoder!
Got some FC's while making a template.
Going to restore my layout from mClock tomorrow.

Send me the logcat output when you get FCs so I can track them down.
As a side note, I have the weather ready. I don't have all the features that I want to support but at least the basics work. My next task is to make a create wizard that will walk you through the steps of making a simple layout. Once I get it ready I'll release the next version.
If you could add missed calls/sms/email in a simple minimalistic way like TxMissed Widget is supposed to do (it's really buggy, and dev has no time to mess with it) I would love you long time! And it's something I would definitely pay for.

That shouldn't be too difficult. I was also interested in what devmil did with Minimalistic Text and tasker. My plan was to replicate that as well.
Please do! And I'm sure I'm not the only one who would really want it, even if you put that feature in a pay version.. Otherwise you need to get your donate to me button added.

Integrating tasker variables is a great idea. Maybe even as attributes e.g. text(%TXTCOLOR;%TXTSIZE;%TXTFONT).
How about calling it Midget?
.hehe

The way I handle properties should allow tasker variables easily. In fact you should be able to set everything through them if you wanted.
Google is getting ready to allow in app purchases so I think I will just have a free version that you can donate from the app.
Midget doesn't quite work. I'm looking for something that describes it. Like make your own clock or minimalistic text.

Yeah I can add that. I'm also planning to have an analog clock you can customize (hands/face).

A few questions: Are we able to hide the clock? That way we can keep the clock we have and still use this? The color changes throughout the day, but does it reset at midnight so we see the same colors as the day before? Thanks for taking the time to answer!
@Chromium - I love you.
Really nice mate. Got rid of the clock widget and just have weather showing now. Thank you very much it's very unique and looks amazing.

Well done Sir. Have a cookie, happily donated. Stock, rooted LG G3.

SO AWESOME! Awesome work man, will donate!
Great looking live wallpaper.
Would really like the option to manually set the background colour or alternative image packs.
Finally wallpaper that suits to my own minimal style.. Thank you man!
Thing that I've noticed:
-Number 8 with light font seems to be a bit cropped
Maybe a feature for changing font style with not only two choices , example to Arial, etc
Keep up in good work!
Looks great:
I would like to see smooth transitions between colors.
This isn't as innovative as XDA suggests
Has no one ever seen Colour Clock?

Been around as a PC screensaver for years.
looking good
unfortunately hexa has stopped
plz solve android 4.2 rooted custom rom
Could you add option to hide a clock? (because I'm using a cLock widget and I'd like to have a wallpaper which would change color depend on the time)
This is fantastic idea! I don't know if it's possible but it would be great to see a gradient option. Take for instance, the current color, the previous color, and the upcoming color then make that a gradient that slowly changed from top-to-bottom.
Great app, I will be keeping this ready for a few more options in settings. Hiding the clock would be good, choosing sets of colours e.g. different shades of red/blue etc of multiples of both. Lots of potential on this!
Going to settings crashed the app

+1 for this
Off-topic: what font is the Chromium text in your signatute?
I'm gonna write a huge petition to make this epic thing a daydream app too. and if i either win or fail, I'm gonna go there and personally hug you for the best live wallpaper I've ever seen.
hopefully this will become a daydream to... daydream while staring at it all day long
