I just wish ALL of my apps would allow to use accent colour, even the wpcentral tile doesn't work!

wpcentral works, you have to look settings of app.

It works but when I open wpcentral and go back to the homescreen it stops working for a while and then randomly it starts working again etc....
Does it permanently work for you?

Yea I'm having the same problem w/ wpcentral. Its the only one annoying me because everytime I open it (which has been a ton today ) it breaks and goes to plain accent color instead of transparent

Here is my current start screen and the raw file I used for the background (loving Cortana if you couldn't tell)

I have two questions for you other forum users,
First, how did you guys get a transparent WPcentral tile?
Second, does anybody know of a weather app with a transparent tile that looks good in double wide?

If I could get both of those tiles it would make this new start screen perfect.
Thanks in advance!

I have been experimenting with some pictures of gradients and it has a nice effect when you scroll through the start screen. Here are some that I have tried with so far, and the grey one gives a sort of metallic look.

Although I can see the windows pictures that are offered as backround, I can;t find them in any album. When I choose my photoes there is no album of backround in it.?????

I love the fact that having a background does not seem to slow down the system!.
