Lex, great lockscreen, one question.
I'm using the proper Yahoo Weather location for my City, Chicago IL, but the lockscreen does not find anything giving me the question mark. I initially thought it was the location being bad, but that same location code works fine in other themes. Any ideas. Below is my location line from the HTML file.
var locale = "12784287"
I've got this theme installed, looks nice. However, I had to change the dock. That white one was glaring. But, my Bitesms icon isn't changing for some reason.

Thanks Andy, strange your code is different than what I've found. I tried it with the same results. I'm wondering if something is wrong with my HTML file?
Just started doing some customization last night after being jailbroken for about 3 weeks. Here's where I'm at:
Lock
Home
You may notice that the quality of the home screen image is not that great. Thats because its actually a video. Its a live wallpaper I made and used with vWallpaper. You can actually see the portal spinning and the aurora at the top moving. I didn't want to buy Display Recorder for $5 just to post this but I'll post the background video file from home tonight if anyone wants it. I can also tell you where to put the file through SSH.
I captured the video in game last night and made it 640x960 but had to downsize it for now. vWallpaper only uses 320x480. I'm going to see if I can modify it to allow iP4 resolutions. And next I'm going to do the Frozen Throne as a live wallpaper.

I would love to have this widget! Please share when you have the time LEXS!
I've just tried the code I provided you with my own AndroiHD theme and it worked perfectly for Chicago IL. Unfortunately I'm now jealous of your current temperature as I sit here in 7C temperatures.
Jokes aside, it's likely to be the script. I'd suggest re-downloading the files for your chosen theme and trying again with that code I provided
Any of you guys familiar with the app "Shrink?" I love the look and detail of most of these, but if I were gonna have a page full of icons, I wouldn't want them to be so big(kinda hides the nice wallpaper...) That's why I use "Shrink."
One page Home Screen...

Just drop the widget folder into /Library/Themes/ on your phone.
It doesn't matter if its just a folder or a folder ending in ".theme"
Then activate it through winterboard.
I personally remove the ".theme" so I can go into the folder and tinker around a bit before installing onto phone.
Hi sorry have not got back sooner
Tried and Tested on my Phone and it works use the
Code USIL0225 for Chicago IL
Hi Thanks glad you like
To change city open and Edit LockBackground.html scroll down to
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var locale ="UKXX0085" .Place your code where I have "UKXX0085
var isCelsius = true .If you want Fahrenheit change true to false
var useRealFeel = true
var enableWallpaper = true;
var enableLockScreen = true;
Save and respring
To change fonts
the system font on the iP4 is, Helvetica and HelveticaNeue. They are both .ttc files.
These two files are located: /System/Library/Fonts/Cache
What you need to do is SSH in and copy these two files and create back-ups. Then find an iP4 ported font, rename the two files so they say 'Helvetica.ttc' and 'HelveticaNeue.ttc' - make sure you name the fonts correctly.
Then literally drag the the new fonts into /System/Library/Fonts/Cache and overwrite the existing Helvetica files and respring the device. You now have a new system font.
Hope that helps
To change the font/size/color on the Theme go to Private/Stylesheets/mini.css
#city{ /* Weather City Position */
position: absolute; top: 265px; right: 0px; down: 0px; left: 155px; width: 320px; height: 461px;
// display: none;
text-align: left;
font-family: Zapfino; .remove Zapfino and put Neutraface or what ever font you want
font-size: 18px;
font-weight: 100;
color: #silver;
// text-shadow: 0px -1px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7);
text-transform: uppercase;
z-index: 14;

Okay, remember those icons you sent me? I managed to change them all, but I don't know where to change the camera app at all.
hey Lex, where is this option? i have the latest lockinfo beta and also have weathericon plugin for lockinfo installed, but it does not give me an option to put temp on status bar.
i had weathericon as a seperate app but nothing in the lockinfo gave me an option to put temp on statusbar.
thanks.
Go to settings on iPhone there you will have Weather Icon (seperate from Lockinfo)
Enable On under Icon it will have show badge show image and various other
settings
