Is there a way to enlarge a Desktop Gadget?

I found a couple ticker symbol gadgets I like - but they are pretty small on the desktop.

I've got my Screen set at 150 % to enlarge the writing - and both my 15" and 22" are set to their native sizes.

My Gadgets are on my second monitor - which is used for expanded productivity - sometimes to have TV streaming on it - and to display my Stock Gadgets for a daily screenings.

Is there any way - to enlarge a gadget beyond what's coded into the gadget itself?

Thanks
 
solution to gadgets

1) Im talking about Window 7 (not vista)
2) Each gadget is installed into (C-Users-(your account name)-AppData-Local-Microsoft-Windows Sidebar-Gadgets)
3) Find there the gadget you need, get into the folder & open there *.html file pressing F4 (sometimes there can be more than one so you've got to try all of them)
4) Find the line where the size is mentioned & correct it (as for me it's rather complicated to set the correct size so I multiply it by 2, 3 etc i.e. it was 120x 250 I make it 240x500
5) There's also a folder with pictures to the gadget or they are in the root of the gadget. You'll have to increase each of them by the same proportion as you do in *.html file
6) It can't be done in 5 minutes so be prepared to lots of experiments but in the long run it's worth it :)))
7) Best of luck :))))
