How to degrade a widget (dis)gracefully

I put the BBC Glastonbury festival widget in my iGoogle page the other day. I like trying these things out, and this widget carried the festival webcam streams. It was quite a nice widget.
I just noticed a Twitter that the webcam's were down, so I thought I'd go and check how the widget looked with no content. (This is how it looks in total):

Hmm, well that's graceful, isn't it? I just can't imagine how taking a content stream out of a widget can cause such catastrophic degredation. It's a bit of an insult to anyone who'd bothered to take a copy of the widget.
