Analog Clock possible?

I notice that a lot of skins now have a center area where they have the logo of the car (mine does) and I got to thinking about having a nice analog clock there instead of the digital clock.

Something like this java clock http://www.adcsoft.com/javaclock.html

Is it possible to use something like this? Maybe Guino you could check out some of the open source analog clock projects I found when I googled and somehow add it to road runner so we can turn OFF the digital clock and within the *.skin file we can specify X,Y,Z cords to place a clock. Maybe specify miniute/hour hand color and second hand color and number color and background color.

Good or bad idea here?? I just think it would look nice.

P.S. You could also create much smaller vesions of the same idea and place them next to or below the clock and they would show the inside and outside temps in analog too.

I have the .fla (Flash source) for an analog clock you can use if you like.. but it will probably require some editing to be exactly what you want (it has background etc)..

I think the analog clock option is a good one. Unfortunately for me, it would be redundant in my Saab since I have a digital clock in the upper trip computer display.

That is very very nice. I put in in place of the logo of my skin.

I'am new to this flash business so this will probably be a stupid question, but is it possible to change parts of it, like the size it displays , the color of the digital clock's fonts?
