    Was wondering if anyone has used both and if so, which one is better and why you think so. Thanks in advance for your help.

    I just switched to weather widgets donate simply because of the skinning ability.

    Do you need the clock in the widget?
    Beautiful Widgets has the HTC Sense style clock in both of their widgets.

    Beautiful widgets has smaller versions without the clock.

    I'm personally a fan of the animations and use of Beautiful Widgets, but am being tempted by the skinning ability of Weather Widgets. That being said, I'll probably stick with BW.

    Weather Widgets is the one to get now that Beautiful Widgets have been served a C&D. How unfortunate :(

    I'm sure Weather Widgets will also soon receive a C&D. If not, that's even more ****ed up on HTC's part.

    I used Astro file manager. Go to Menu>Tools>Application Manager/Backup. Pick the apps you want to backup, hit the backup button. New folder on your SD card called backups.

    I think that would be considered spreading illegal materials...

    It would have 24 hours ago. Since it's now been pulled from the Market and unavailable for purchase, it is now legally considered legal.

    You could also try out Weather Forecast widget. You need to download the free version first. Then buy and download the donate key (
