Got it.  Thanks!  For some reason the System Dashboard was the only one I thought there was.

That's right, you can only add gadgets if you are the Dashboard owner.

Hi mr.T,

You should create your own dashboard first, then you can add gadgets.

To create your own dashboard, click on "Tools" and then select "Create Dashboard".

Hope that helps!
