This is a great Widget. I have been looking for something like this for a long time. Could you increase the opacity a bit - it is hard to read when parked over text areas. Otherwise, make it variable by user selection. Thanks.

No it is a bug. Thanks for spotting it! I will upload a new version this evening. Thanks again, bye.
EDIT: Version 1.4 posted. Will take a day or two though for approval.

Hi again. Is this supposed to look so when info is not available? Looks like the image is missing.

Hi, it would be possible in theory to ship the widget with many different sets of icons but then its size would become huge. The size is 2mb at the moment, 99% of which is given by the icons. The next version, 1.3, that will be available very soon has been shrinked to 1mb, i cannot go further reducing the size....
Anyway, i'll think of it. Do you have some particular weather icons set to suggest?

Bye and thanks for your comment!
