like i wrote it here works.
i decided not to recreate the skin, but to tell you how you can make it yourself.
first in your appdaemon basedirectory find the directory appdaemon/assets/css
copy the directory default and give it the name you want your new skin to have
in the new made directory create a directory with the name img
find any jpg file you like as your background (google?) and copy it to the img directory
in your skin directory find the file named.variables.yaml
change the line
background_style: "background-co…
i think its the place where you did place the directory

nickrout:
Question: If I have a skin with a fixed image as a background, ie a link to a file on the HASS machine, what happens if another script (eg one that obtained a new image from somewhere) changed that image, ie put a new image there with the same filename. Would the background change automagically in the dashboard, or is some sort of reload needed?
No, you would either need to force a reload in the browser, or have some Javascript running to pick up the new file and apply it - wouldn’t be hard to do though.

You can do this by adding a meta refresh tag in the head includes section in variables.yaml for the skin.

I was thinking it could be a separate flag. dash_force_compile = 1 would force everything, dash_force_compile = 2 would do just the JS. But I am sure that @aimc has a better idea. Maybe even to move the force compile argument to the dash level.

That’s the weather widget built into Dash.

Yes, it looks like he removed the rain and humidity and changed the title on Apparent Temp.
