i have been noticing all the talk about infolabels and infofadelabels, unfortunately, i have no idea how to use these features. it appears like they are localisations of a sort so you can put things like the weather on the home screen and whatnot. i am not 100% that it is what the features are, but if it is, it would be awesome to see this configurable in the gui under appearance settings. i don't know how hard something like this would be to implement, but it would be great for the novice users like myself so we can play too!
the following infolabels are available. *for a skin, the type needs to be infolabel, and the label tag needs to match one of the strings below. *you dont need to worry about any localization. *it's handled internally.
weather.conditions
weather.temperature
weather.location

open up home.xml and you'll see two examples of this. *ths is how the date and time are placed on the home screen.
