UK Radio Stations - UltimateLaunch

Okay ... I've read through the rules and I can't see how this may break them, so apologies in advance if they do. Also I don't know if anyone would find this useful, but I thought as I had gone to the effort of making it, I would at least share it, as I have got so many great things from here in the past.
So a run down of what it is.
This is for UltimateLaunch. I created a new tab just for online UK radio stations on my HTC Elf. In the file attached, you should find all links to the stations shown in the example below, plus 32 & 48 size XP-Icons. It's easy to setup for anyone who has used UltimateLaunch before. You will need RealMedia player (or substitue) installed, plus WMP.
If anyone finds this useful, please let me know & if you would like any radio stations added also mention that here & I'll try my best. Plus if I've made any mistakes also tell me.

Skyfire websites shortcut on today screen

I have AT&T tilt with WM 6.1 rom. I'm using skyfire everyday. One of a kind!
I'm watching this website www.kab.tv most of the time while i'm driving.
so, I have to fire up the skyfire by touching the icon on my tray in the bottom of the screen, then I have to wait 30 seconds for it to get to the homepage, then i'm touching the bookmarks and after few second I can choose my website.
It's kind of not safe to do that while I'm driving

Is there any way to have a website shortcut or some plugin on/for the today screen?
all I wish is to touch the icon on the today screen and have my website open without doing all of the above.
I know jB5 browser has the ability to have 3 shortcut on the today screen.
Thanks

you are right, thats not a safe method but watching videos while drivings is never safe
you need a plugin/launcher or a GUI with icons that can open a exe like "skyfire.exe" with a parameter like "http:\\www.yahoo.com". i think there are many apps out here.

Can you please name one? so I'll know what to look for. Thanks.

you may try ultimate launch,but it s not for free....
i set a tab with my bookmarks, you just need skyfire to be your default browser

Volume Control Graphics & Colour

Hi Guys,
Just flashed my device to ROMeOS 1.13 from a Vodaphone branded ROM.
Everything works great and I am really pleased.. just needs a little tweaking here and there.. love it! One minor cosmetic thing is niggling me though and that is the fact I have lost my Volume Control Graphics (Slider) and in it's place is a traditional windows looking volume control.. quite boring really. Anyone got any idea of whether there is a way to re-install the prettier graphics slider and dump the traditional looking one?

Which music player has the best lock screen widget?

I tried the default Google Play and Music. Both displays a widget that allows me to pause/restart the track, but none of them displays how much play time remains on the track. Such functionality would be useful because I play files than often last an hour or so.

most of the players don't offer that functionality in the lock screen.

The music player on iOS (even on 7.x) gives you a progress bar and the ability to backtrack or forward from lock screen. If most android players don't have this functionality, in addition to the _default_ player, that's a serious problem. Remember that besides being phone, photos, web browsing, and games platform, the music player is one of the top applications of smartphones. Aren't smartphones meant to kill the ipod? Then why I can't access the most basic functions of music player from the lock screen? All I can do right now is stop and go. that's it.

poweramp haves all that functionality you talk about

Hi! It's still possible to make the RGB strips work on other apps (not just on music player apps) and I've got a temporary workaround for this. Simply add the app to Shark Space then access the Game Dock, click on the app's title on the Game Dock, go to the Multi-Experience tab, and turn on Athletic Lights. That's it. However, the RGB strips won't work if you leave the app itself so they won't work while the music player is in the background process. But it works when the screen is off as long as the app is in foreground. My device runs on China ROM, and that's how it works. It should also be the same with the Global ROM.
P.S. Not all apps can be added to the Shark Space so there has to be a separate option for this that hopefully will be added in the future updates.

Hi Joe,
I am not sure about Jetaudio but it is working with Poweramp and Blackplayer ex.
