Transparent GMail/Reader app? - Nexus 7 Themes and Apps

Does anyone know an app that can let me see my gmail email and/or greader stuff that you can customize like the attached... ?
Attached is Android Pro Widgets with Lucid theme

AtomaRSS is a great RSS reader that will pull from Google RSS. I highly recommend it. You will need an alternate launcher that supports scrollable Widgets. I use it with Nova Launcher which has the added bonus of giving you a horizontal home screen.

Widgets

I am looking for some decent widgets for example the clock/weather widget that is on the evo. Same with a message widget similar to the one on the evo. Any ideas would be very helpfull. And if anyone has any snapshots of their screens to get some ideas of how to lay them out. Please list what widgets are being used with each screen shot as well. Thanks in advance.
Beautiful widgets it what u want for clock/weather which is a payed app. Only thing I know that has sense like messaging is launcher pro which is free for the basic version. Launcher pro plus is wa worth the money tho.

Can you post some of your screens?
Has anyone ever had any issues with Beautifyl widgets and the animations? I keep getting beautiful widgets needs to connect to the internet and download 1020kb for the forecast animations then it goes to download and doesn't download anything. Any clues anyone?
Sorry don't have access to a computer at the moment. But as far as your question I have not had that problem.

Here is my homescreen using nebula rom 1.0.6 twin jet, themed with the gingerbread theme, icons I found somewhere on here and tweaked a bit, launcher pro dock and, of course, beautiful widgets.
My BW widget skins are myriad-clean for the clock (this will change to either 42blue or blueglownaked when theimpaler releases his new theme) and Bullet_droid for the weather.

Replacement for Sense/LauncherPro Calendar Widget

I just flashed MIUI and really like it. But I'm upset about my missing calendar widget. Does anyone know of an aesthetically pleasing, full page calendar/agenda widget akin to Sense's? Thanks.
Actually, maybe a better idea. Is there a way to theme launcherpro to look like miui launcher?
I use LauncherPro with MIUI but I hate the look of the LP Widgets. I use Android Agenda Widget for my calendar. There are a bunch of skins for it and you can customize it pretty much any way you want. It's free too which is always a plus.

I use Smooth Calendar agenda widget (it's 1x4) and Jorte Calendar (3x4) monthly view widget. Both are free in the market and sync with my Google calendar. This combination takes up an entire screen and gives me everything I need at a quick glance.

I use Colorize Widget myself
another one here for smooth calendar, i have it show 3 events and you can tell it to use what calendars and what apps to run off of
I appreciate all the replies, I actually downloaded each widget suggested... but none of them quite did it for me :/
I love the aesthetic of colorize, but there is no calendar and it seems like it doesn't sync with google?
I liked the functionality of jorte, but man, thats an ugly widget, even when i switched over to black. (white is hideous)
Smooth calendar is cool, except I really want a full screen widget.
Oh well, it looks like I'm switching back to LauncherPro, that calendar widget is just too awesome to lose.
Yeah either sense or lp it is i guess

Launcher pro like twitter/facebook widgets

Hi
I quite like the facebook and twitter widgets for launcher pro however go launcher seems more customisable but i dont want to lose those widgets so can anyone think of a good replacement for the widgets?

Colorize Widget is the closest one I have found.
Free too
You might want to try this. It's Kamma's Status Updater and should fit your needs perfectly.
Or if you don't fancy that then you could pick up Pure Messenger widget and configure it to just show your twitter and facebook updates (although personally I find it a little bit sluggish for scrolling).

Agenda widget??

Does anyone know what widget is being used in the attached screenshot? I saw it one of the other threads and am not sure which app is that. I know for a fact that it's not the following:
Pure calendar
Agenda widget for android
Simple calendar widget?

Nope not that either
Seems like the LauncherPro Plus Calendar Widget
EDIT: Market Link here
You'll have to purchase the unlocker though to get the widgets. There's likely to be a transparent widget theme for the Calendar widget as well. There's still some issues with the Launcher though such as the Gmail widget not displaying the feed (not sure if it's fixed as of now), etc so beware.
Thanks for the info! I knew the widget seemed very familiar. I had launcher pro on my droidx for a short period of time.
APW is a better option for all the Launcher Pro widgets. They have much more customization and are updated. LP seems like it's a dead project, even though the dev claims he is still working on the rewrite. It's been way too long for an an update and I have moved on. APW works on any launcher as well.

You are right. Last update for LP came back in May. I'll check out APW. They seem to be very nice.
My only complaint with APW is the lack of themes. Lpp had some really nice ones even before the official theme system was implemented.

Yea this looks like APW widgets with full transparency on. APW is a good widget pack. One of the best if you ask me.

Best news widgets for nexus 7

Give these a look.
Android Pro Widgets with APW Google Reader
Has some nice Holo themes on the Play Store as well (Light | Dark). I believe you need to buy the APW License Key to be able to use the Google Reader app.
Minimal Reader | Minimal Reader Pro
Check out the "Pure" series of widgets. They have a scrollable news widget that is pretty sweet. It has lots of nice skins available, as well.

I am searching Nexus 7 Widget and checked many forums but failed. Please may you help me to solve my issue.
I use (and love) Feedly.
I started using Feedly on PC when it was announced that Google Reader is going to be shut down, and Feedly seemed like the best alternative, and it's also available on Android, and its widget is kind of nice. Not beutiful, just a simple RSS widget, but it gets the job done.
Genie News and Weather widget.
