As more of us jump off of Sense based roms and over to ones like Ruby and Cyanogen (now that both are getting close to being ready for prime time), I have been looking for a list of all of the scrollable widgets out there... Koxx's "Pure" widgets are all updated to it, but I really haven't found many others. Searching google hasn't really turned out a good resource for them either...
Anyways, if you use ADW or LauncherPro and use scrollable widgets, please feel free to post up any links to lists or just list the ones you're using...
so far I've installed
Pure Messenging
Pure Calendar Grid
Pure Calendar
and I am using the LauncherPro scrollable widgets as well.
I am looking for a good news reader type one like the HTC news one if there is one...
Android Agenda Widget is a calendar app that I use. I really like the customization that it offers.
Handcent has a scrollable widget for sms but I'd rather just open the app...

No not weird at all. I'm the same way. At last some one that understands. I've been using Beautiful Widgets very similar. Not the clock and weather toggle. I bought that and it wasn't quite up to par. No raindrops on the glass or clouds and thunder. Beautiful Widgets was worth the money though. I was going to check this Digital Clock out too. Just haven't yet. If you try it let me know how you like it.

The sense widgets REQUIRE sense framework and the rosie launcher.
There was an app that was pulled from the market called 'Fancy Widget'. All I will say is that it was pulled via C&D by HTC themselves for being 'too similar' to the proprietary clock widget you are looking for.
"Fancy Widget" Google is your friend.

Yeah Fancy Widget is the one run by the Weather and Toggle app you have to buy to make it run. Not really what the sense clock is like. I liked the Beautiful Widgets way better. You can play with different skins till you find one that suits you and the Boca weather skin is just like the sense weather.
Actually. That is not correct. Fancy Widget is different and you can Google it. I use it because you can set if to update more frequently. If the stock app updated every 30 minutes like you can set Fancy Widget to do I would still be using it...

what about other HTC widgets? I would love to use LauncherPro but I have to have the HTC Photo Album widget to show off my new baby girl. I know there are other photo widgets and I have tried almost all of them but none can compare to the HTC. Please help I am sick of using the rest of Sense....
Every HTC specific widget cannot be run on any Launcher except Rosie and cannot be ported without making an exact replica with the same images like Fancy Widget. People need to realize this and stop asking.
There is a separate Widget named Fancy Widget, it was pulled from the Market, because... IT IS EXACTLY the same as HTC clock, they literally copied the images. It is wonderful, a little more flexible, and can be setup to check more often, and launch whichever clock and weather app you choose when you touch.... Only thing it does not do is animations. Google "Fancy Widget apk" and really look as stated prior if you want the HTC clock...
If you want something attractive, slightly different, and still free check out
Weather Widgets (yr.no) http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.ermesjo.yr I switch between this and Fancy Widget based on how I am feeling lol
As for anyone missing other HTC widgets... support Launcher Pro and purchase Launcher Pro Plus, the widgets are very comparable... and the guy has written a wonderful piece of software... so pay the 2.99!!
I just downloaded Fancy Widget 1.3 and it is basically the same exact thing as the HTC Sense Clock widget but it allows you to configure what application it launches when you hit the weather icon, date or time. I just installed it and haven't seen if it does the weather animations but I could care less about that.
I have a non-sense build of android on my HD2, but I really like the sense version of the calendar widget. Is there anyway I can download and use the sense calendar widget on my build?

It's part of the Sense Launcher--thus you can't pull it because it relies on Sense. :< Sorry man
You can make Android Agenda Widget look nearly the same, scrolls, has all different sizes, very configurable.
Download launcher prosense UI then get launcher pro plus
Alternative
This one is also good...
Does anyone know of any 4x4 Facebook and Twitter widgets compatible with the stock launcher?
I tried Colourize widgets and the twitter widget works fine, but when i try to use the facebook widget SE Home goes into a FC loop
So any help in finding an alternative would be much apreciated
You could try Pure Messenger; it also has a timeline to have them together. I use Plume for 4x4 widget Twitter, but it won't scroll with stock launcher.
I have had a hard time finding widgets that match the same wisth and height as the stock widgets that come on TW. The few I have found to match or are very close I will list here. If anyone else knows of any please reply with what those are. Hopefully we can get a good list going for those of you out there that are as OCD as me about widgets matching.

Pure Calendar Widget (Agenda)
