Cool Favorite clock/weather widget?

So one of the only things I find myself salivating at on my wife's HTC Incredible 2 is the Sense weather/clock widget. Thing looks badass. I've found some of the ripoffs on the appstore, and have installed Beautiful Widgets, which has some pretty cool clocks, but a lot of them look like janky crap.



Do you guys have a favorite or has anyone found one that gives the sense widget a run for its money?

Fancy Widget Pro is great. I prefer it over Beautiful Widgets and Weather Toggle & Widgets.

I guess the new version is called just Fancy Widgets

Thanks for the suggestions The couple of clocks I've downloaded for Fancy Widgets(I only had free before, but just bought full version) are already way better quality than the ones on Beautiful Widgets. Will try to post a screen shortly

Second to that, plus they had it as an Amazon Free App of the day once. Woohoo!

Beautiful Widgets all the way. I've been using the destroy skin with a transparent background. Around 50% that way I can see my screen background.

Default DroidX Eye Clock widget

At some point in the last nine months I had a DroidX Clock widget on my OG Droid. I really was just a clock widget that used the DroidX Eye as a background, and offered a choice for the eye color (red, blue, green, yellowish). It was lost at some point in one of the many times I flashed different roms to that phone. I have looked a few times in the last couple of months, but have been unable to find it.

If anybody has seen that widget, or has it, I'd love to get it installed on my Droid Charge.

(BTW: Verizon tunred on 4G in my area today, and it is crazy fast... loving it).

Actually. Use go launcher and then get.goweather. your wife will be salivating looking at your phone. They.have an htc style clock that is better than htcs. And the coolness.of go launcher is a "see it to appreciate it" thing. Set your app drawer to have the blind effect. Its awesome lol.
