Convert a WinForms Application to a Windows Desktop Gadget

Question

I have created a C# WinForms application and now I'd like to know if there is a way to somehow convert it so I could use it as desktop gadget.

I've searched a lot but couldn't find a satisfying answer. I am not a very skilled programmer so please try to explain me the solution as if explaining it to dummy.

With `Desktop Widget` you mean those objects I can put on dekstop from Windows Vista on? — Marco, Nov 29 '11 at 17:04
yes, that is what I mean. Like calendar, clock, CPU performance gauge etc. — user1071762, Nov 30 '11 at 00:10
