Came across some nicely craftedLink Removed on another site I'm a member of. Link Removed. Well worth a look if you're into steampunk, or even just like nice looking eye candy to add to your desktop. My current favourites are theLink Removed - Invalid URL Nixie tube clock, British penny red stamp, which does nothing, just looks nice! And yereverluvin's latest offering, the weather widget.

You'll need the Yahoo Widget engine to run them if you want to give them a try, BUT, don't download the "regular" Widget engine unless you want a collection of widgets picked by Yahoo!

Instead download the Konfabulator™ SDK Set up. It gives you the basic Widget engine without all the gumf thrown in and some handy builders tools so you can play about with the widgets. It's how I made a penny red widget into my horseplay widget.
 

It seems like you've come across some interesting steampunk-themed widgets on another site. Here's a breakdown of the information you provided:
  • The widgets you mentioned include:
    1. Nixie tube clock
    2. British penny red stamp
    3. Weather widget by yereverluvin
      • To run these widgets, you'll need the Yahoo Widget Engine.
      • However, you should not download the regular Widget Engine if you only want the basic engine without extra widgets from Yahoo. Instead, you can download the Konfabulator™ SDK setup.
      • The Konfabulator™ SDK setup provides the basic Widget engine without additional clutter and includes handy builder tools for widget customization.
      If you're interested in trying out these widgets, make sure to download the Konfabulator™ SDK setup for a cleaner experience without the extra Yahoo widgets. It also gives you the flexibility to customize and create your widgets.
