Fancy Widgets Displaying Incorrectly - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just bought my S5 and I use Fancy Widgets on my home screen. When I apply any weather skin the widget displays very very small. However the default skin displays just fine. I attached screenshots below. Does anyone have any ideas on this? Thanks for any help.

Help with icons on screens

I am experiencing an issue with my icons. When I move the icon from the app drawer to the screen I can edit it to remove the name but when I restart the tab the names show up again. This did not happen in the past, any ideas?

Assistive Light Widget Mod Help

Ok, so I love having the assistive light widget. Its the only flashlight app/widget I've seen with the ability to launch it and simultaneously view other apps or lock the screen and have it continue to operate. However. The widget is larger than it need be and is above all ugly as sin.
My idea is to use something like Desktop Visualizer to create a 1x1 transparent widget to place in a second dock in Apex Launcher or somewhere on the home screen.
My problem is I cannot find the corresponding app or action to link the custom widget to the Assistive Light widget.
Does anyone know what it is, where to look, or can find it? Because I have been at it for two days and continue to fail lol.
Thanks for the time and help.

Might I suggest TeslaLED from the Play store? It comes in very handy and has a 1x1 widget that isn't an eye sore. It also stays on whether you turn off the screen or start using other apps.

Wallpaper Sizing

I apologize if this has been addressed before but I'm a little pressed for time right now. Has anyone else had the issue with their wallpaper sizes being different on the home screen and lock screen? As in when you unlock the device it seems as if the wallpaper zooms almost? If so is there a fix for it? I am currently on Apex Launcher if that means anything.
Thanks in advance

Yup mine does that too.
Using Nova Launcher with a PIN lockscreen and wallpaper set from gallery using a photo taken by S4 camera.
Edit: Just tried with different photos and still same resizing change from lockscreen to home screen. No idea why.

Go to playstore and download an app called picspeed. Use that app to set your wallpapers. It wont oversize the pics like the phone system does. So when you pic your wallpapers from gallery and it ask what app to install with click picsoeed. It has 3 box sizes to choose from. The good thing is you can use any wallpaper in your gallery it dont have to be a download from picspeed.

Stock weather widget not showing weather

So when I first put that widget on my screen, it was all fine but then it stopped showing the actual weather and it looks like this:

Any idea how to fix it?

Enable location again as this and internet are the two things needed for the weather plug-in to work. If enabling location don`t fix the issue please restart your phone and please also add the weather widget to some home screen though.
My location was enabled but I disabled it and enabled it again, it's set on high accuracy right now. Didn't fix the problem. Restarting also didn't fix the problem. After adding the widget to the screen again, it still only shows the clock and the date

And you are sure this is the weather widget not the clock one ?
I am grabbing the weather widget shown on the first picture, putting it on the screen and then it actually looks like the one on the second picture
