An example to create the combination: Clockworks BACK + Half moon

On Mobile Shell click the "Add Widget" button
Click the "Analog Clock" icon. Click on the clock, press "Change Skin", select "Clockworks BACK BIG".

Then add a second analog clock and do the same but select "Clockworks Half moon".

On the VGA version there are 2 versions of each clock, a big one and a small one.

You have to put "Clockworks Half moon" over "Clockworks BACK". You have 2 analog clocks one over the other. This makes the magic work...
