Yes we can see your thread! FYI: when discussing AppWidgets, better to refer to them as AppWidgets rather than widgets to avoid confusion ;) A widget is any UI element, whether it is in an AppWidget or an App.
Concerning your problem: can you not simply apply the User-defined background image ID to all instances of your AppWidget? If not, then you need to put in place some means to link an AppWidget instance (i.e. its ID) to its corresponding User-defined background. E.g. you could also store the AppWidget ID in SharedPreferences. Also, from what I've seen when you add a new AppWidget, its ID is the last one in the array of AppWidget IDs - so you could get away with just applying the User-defined background to the last AppWidget ID from the array.
