Dynamic WebClock by Websilk
 
This dynamic clock seeks its time from the users computer. Please use them on your pages with my compliments
The clocks are written in Flash 5 and are only 1.7k. They are 230 pix wide x 18 pix high. Font is Verdana. The foreground colour is fixed, however the background colour is fully user definable - see the html code below.
For example, the webclock-black.swf will give a black figures on any colour you wish.

NOTE: Although the Webclock has a 'rollover' state (time changes to text), there is no click state. The text of the standard Webclock reads "Webclock by www.websilk.co.uk" Clicking on it WILL NOT activate that website.
If you want one in a specific foreground colour, I am happy to oblige, or if you wish to have the 'rollover' changed to reflect your web address, Likewise, I am happy to oblige... If it is a commercial web address, I make a charge of five UK Pounds... If it is a personal home page, then it is free (I may have to revise this if I get too many requests...)
Netscape users:

If you can not see the clocks, you will probably be using pre V6 Netscape. Netscape only shipped the Flash plugin with version 6 onwards

Most popular browsers can get the latest Flash plugin automatically installed on request at: Macromedia Flash Plugin website

The HTML code for changing the Background colour:
This shows the two places where the colour specification needs changing to suit your needs.
(Dreamweaver users can just click the Bg colour selector in the 'Property Inspector')

* The ¬ symbol means that code on this line and the next line must be all on one contious line without any spaces.

Although Flash is scalable, I suggest keeping the specified width (230pix) and height (18 pix) as this mixes in nicely with 'average' size text. However experiment if you wish. Have fun...
