Any good widgets for KF? - Kindle Fire Themes and Apps

I've looked around the forums here and haven't really found anything, and even did some Googling, but the only things coming up as far as tablet widgets were for 3.0+. IDK about you guys but I'm holding out on going up to ICS until the video problem gets worked out, so in the meantime I was wondering if anyone had any good widgets (useful and/or good looking) widgets to share for those of us on CM7 or stock w/ replacement launcher. I've been searching to no avail really, either they are all 3.0+ or just don't look right on the KF's screen.

HD Widgets, I heard it works well on the fire.

idono if it's just me but i installed hd widgets and all i can choose is weather widgets.

For transparent widgets on CM7 in ADW, I'm using Widgetsoid, Glass Widgets (news, calendar/clock, weather), and Free space. If you run GO launcher, you can use the GO Widgets in addition to the many widgets that will work on most launchers. The GO Widgets can be themed using installable theme packs (including transparent themes).

Help with GenieWidget.apk (News and Weather)

I am trying to get GenieWeather Widget to work on my Thunderbolt.
I was looking at this thread and found these pictures.

Looking through the thread the app I am interested in was identified as: News and Weather by Google. Found on the system as GenieWeather.apk.
The first version I found did not work on my Thunderbolt. I couldnt find a version for the TB on xda but did on this website.
After installing I can not find a way to display the weather in the week format like in the pictures. Is the option just not available on the TB version or am I missing something?
You can't find the setting because it's not geniewidget. Looks like one of the simi widgets.
Just download Simi Clock Widget which includes the weather widget. Simi only lets you have one day, not the app in the pictures. Anyone else happen to know?
i think the weather app is beautiful widgets. it's a paid app.

[WIDGET][1.5+/3.2+]BigBattery 4x1 cool widget

In my quest in finding a 4x1 battery widget wich looks cool on my phone and tablet, i could'nt find any.
So i've developed a beautifull 4x1 battery widget wich has a nice and adjustable gradient.
The app comes in two flavours: The free version only includes one widget where the (not so expensive) payed version includes alot more...even a full working binary widget.
The widget runs from android 1.5 up to 3.2 so its very suitable for Tablets too

Great app! But would love to know what launcher and theme u are using?
My theme is not really what makes that homescreen
I'm using ADWlauncherEX with a custom dock image at the bottom.
All teksticons are created with "TextIconCreator for ADW" (you'll find it on the market by that name).
The clock is from "beautifull widgets" and the toggles below the battery are from "Widgetsoid".
all together you can build this kind of screen regardless of wich theme you are using.
Check out Battery XL Pro
DiamondJinx what clock/date widget is that? It is awesome!!
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
Its called "WP Clock 2.0" I love it
Hey, do you plan to include other widgets or the ability to add my own widget? I love the battery, but would want to try other graphics.
Another one, can you add a third color for the gradient? I have things in mind like moving from black through green to white or something like this.
Cheers

[Q] Weather Widget

Looking for a decent weather widget. But before we go any further, I have tried beautiful widgets and HD widgets. I am looking for something like beautiful widgets 1x1 weather widget, but one that only shows a weather Icon, I don't need the text, current temp, ie, all that other stuff. It doesn't fit well with my themeing and skinning. Any ideas? Thanks!
UCCW.
I think you can pretty much design it yourself with this, or use and/or modify someone else's skin...

Thanks, I will definantly give that a go.
This is the app I use, though its a paid app, it has more weather information than I would ever need (or completely understand!). I like the widgets too, they look great, and the radar widget is super cool...

This is the app I use. You can customize and make all the clock, battery and weather widgets you desire. Mine is the paid version, but there is a free version as well. You can see mine below:

Apex launcher question

I am liking the app so far but I have one problem. I can't seem to find the default widget for weather with the clock when I try to add the widget in apex launcher. Is there a way I can get it or is or disable or something.

I assume you mean this 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_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
That clock and weather widget is part of the Touchwiz launcher, and can only be used when using the Touchwiz home launcher, unfortunately Apex can't access it because that clock and weather widget relies on the Touchwiz framework to work which only the Touchwiz home launcher can access.
im not the OP but yes, thats is the one i cant find in widget list once on apex launcher...which makes me sad, all the other touchwiz are there but not the sexy weather one
If you are looking for a good alternative, Beautiful Widgets and Fancy Widgets are both available for a small fee on the Play store.
Word Weather Clock Widget or UCCW are good alternatives.
Thanks for all the suggestions
