Desktop X Widgets: Few questions

from WinCustomize Forums
Guys, I just downloaded Desktop X Widgets .... after using AveDisk ...which I had lots of problems with...I deicded to switch it to X Widgets ....
I was searching for "My Comptuer" and "Recycle Bin" .... widgets for my laptop ...
but all I found was 1 for "my computer" and few that are not best for "Recycle Bin" ???
Any one have the link, where I can download from many options ?????
And Also, everytime I open a widget ... it is opening on the system tray as an individual widget6 ....
Is there a way I can open all of them under "Desktop X Widgets" program, which is already on the system tray????????
thanks .....

Widgets are separate executables from DesktopX.

From the Wiki:

A widget (.exe) is an executable mini-application. They are usually more complex than objects. DesktopX must be installed but it does not have to be running to use a widget.

One solution would be to open up DX in builder mode and import all the widgets you want to run, then save as a dxtheme. Instead of running the widgets you would run the one theme.
