I couldn't sleep last night (it's 7.50 am in Greece now) so I thought I should give it a go with creating gadgets...
I created one that lists the latest posts of this forum.
Feel free to download and test it.
It's a beta version, I'll be doing some upgrades, fixing the looks and stuff.
Please post feedback and bugs, if you like it.
Cheers 
Another small gadget I made today.
It's nothing special, just a SevenForums customized clock, only I have added Digital Clock and Date options too.
Special thanks to Mr.Grim for supplying modified logos (taken
from the other gadget I made)   sfClock.Gadget.zip SF live gadget - http://www.sevenforums.com/attachmen...ets-sflive.zip

Cheers  Note I haven't found a way to "pack" it , yet, so please copy the gadget folder to your
C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets
actually a "packed" gadget is just a zipped gadget renamed to .gadget... 
try it just remember not to have any folders inside meaning before the gadget .xml and other stuff....
this is just to show you...
