hey lencho - no worries.
here's a step-by-step guide of what to do.
1. Go to
this post of this thread and download the "BuufClockWidget.theme.zip" file that was posted by rafx80
2. Get into the zip file and extract the contents to your computer. Now you'll have a folder called "BuufClockWidget.theme" wherever you extracted it.
3. If you want the clock to display in 24-hour / military time, open up the "Widget.html" file in the "BuufClockWidget.theme" folder on your computer with your favorite text editor and change this line:
else if(hr>112){am_pm='pm';hr=hr-12}
to this:
else if(hr>112){am_pm='pm';}
Then save the file and close it.
4. If you want to have the clock widget on your HOMESCREEN, go to step 5. If you want to have it on your LOCKSCREEN, go to step 11 below.
5. Using SSH or iPhoneBrowser or whatever you like, go into your iPhone to the "/Library/Themes/" folder and copy & paste the "BuufClockWidget.theme" folder into the "Themes" folder.
6. Start Winterboard on the iPhone and turn on the BuufClockWidget theme. Respring your phone.
7. At this point you will have something that looks like the first image I've attached to this post. As you can see, the clock is sitting behind the icons on my homescreen, so I'll want to change that.
8. One way to change it would be to use iBlank from Cydia to install a bunch of blank icons along the top row. This what I did in image2 attached to this post. Of course this only works if you do it on every springboard page, so it's sort of a drag.
9. Another option would be to move the clock to the bottom of the screen instead. Take a look at image3. I like this one more because it doesn't require the blank icons, and it aligns itself nicely behind the page indicator lights. =)
In order to do this I modified the "Widget.html" file and the "widget.png" file. If you want your homescreen to look like this, simply replace the "Widget.html" file in the "BuufClockWidget.theme" folder and the "widget.png" file in the "BuufClockWidget.theme/Private" folder with my new ones in the attached zip file.
(Keep in mind if you want the 24-hour time display you will need to make the modification from step 3 above to this new "Widget.html" file.)
10. You will probably want to get rid of the clock in the status bar, since you now have the widget. Check out
this post to do that.
That's it, you're done!!

11. Open the "BuufClockWidget.theme" folder on your computer and rename the "Widget.html" file to "LockBackground.html".
12. Using SSH or iPhoneBrowser or whatever you like, go into your iPhone to the "/Library/Themes/" folder and copy & paste the "BuufClockWidget.theme" folder into the "Themes" folder.
13. Start Winterboard on the iPhone and turn on the BuufClockWidget theme. Respring your phone.
14. At this point you will have something that looks like the image4 attached to this post. As you can see, the clock widget is sitting behind the existing clock on my homescreen, so I'll want to change that by turning off the standard clock.
15. In reality you are not turning it off, but actually substituting a transparent clock font for the standard one. In the zip file attached to this post is a file called "LockClock.ttf". All you have to do is save it to your computer, then put it on your phone in the folder "/System/Library/Fonts/Cache". Make sure you save a copy of the existing "LockClock.ttf" file on your computer before you swap them in case you want it back someday.
16. Getting rid of the bar across the screen that dims the clock seems to be a real pain in the *** and I haven't found a reliable way to do it yet.
That's it!
