dunkhype,
You cannot make the number on the main calendar app any larger because it is literally 1 pixel away from being too large right now. If it were any larger and hits double digits such as "29" you would see part of the number being cut off.
If your talking about making the numbers larger in the month widget... play around with the values in "Widget.html". Make sure you make a backup in case you mess something up.

Bernie,
....looks great. Nice touch with the notes
Marc,
.... Sorry Categories is what it is...there is no way to make it faster, unless your talking about the length of time it takes for applications within "Categories" to open. To make applications within categories open up as fast as it possibly can....delete any all files in "Folders" inside your theme. It is located at the following path:
/Library/Themes/Custom Leopard/Folders
Files in this location are modifications to applications, such as different skins, etc... and obviously would take longer to load when opened...especially if there is a lot of stuff in there.
Tokyo,
Do you mean this?
As far as the other wallpaper you need to tell me which widgets you want on it or do you want a blank dashboard mask?
