Newbie Question - I lost my clock/weather/calendar widget

No prob. I liked the original clock widget too, then I realized the time is constantly displayed in the upper right hand corner all the time. And if I'm pulling the phone out to just check the time, it's displayed pretty large right there on the lock screen.

So I changed my home screen up a bit. I now have two smaller widgets where the large original one was. On the right I have the medium weather widget (HTC Widget -> Weather, 2 of 3). It displays everything the original did as far as weather. On the left I have the Android Calendar widget (Android Widgets -> Calendar). Shows the date and upcoming events right on my home screen and a single click takes me to the full Calendar.

I love the customizability of this phone. :)

I may have to try that setup. Is there a way to do screen shots so we can all display our custom layouts and share them?
