Pretty cool, any way to get it so it's not at an angle?

It worked, even on Snow Leopard! The only thing I couldn't do is straighten it out as the watch face was slanted on the Nano site. Thanks for the hint. Love my Mickey Mouse clock!

You remove it like any of the other widgets in Dashboard.

Open Dashboard

Click the Open (+) button to open the widget bar.

To remove a widget from your computer, click its Remove (x) button, and then click OK. Widgets that are preinstalled with Mac OS X don’t have Remove buttons.

I'm using Snow Leopard and I don't get an 'Open in Dashboard' option. Am I doing something wrong?

I must be doing something wrongly is the add Mickey Mouse does't work on my iMAC, or on the 13' MacBook.

Any ideas?

You can edit too by clicking on the "i". That is crop it better...
The rotation can't be changed from what I see as that is how the original is.

The "ADD" is in the upper right corner of the screen.


Cool find! Thanks!

Will this continue working if/when Apple changes their nano page? Is the widget self-contained, or does it reference back to the source page, which may change in the future?

Ummm, it appears Mickey is located in a certain time zone. The widget will only be useful for people in that time zone, unless you want to just see Mickey and are not interested in the time.

Neat trick, and thanks for noticing that the clock is ticking! However, the clock is locked into one specific time zone. Unless you just want to see Mickey's hands move, you need to be in the same time zone to have a functional clock.

Cool enough; but what if what I really wanted was to get a clock onto the Desktop?
