Very nice little widget. After looking through all the other tag cloud plugins this is the one I found most flexible.

It just needs a bit of styling on the way it displays on the backend. But it's not important. It does its job!

Thank you very much :D

Great customization!

Most Popular Tags is a WordPress plugin that allows you to display your blog’s most popular tags or categories as a sidebar widget. The plugin takes advantage of the new Widget API introduced in WordPress 2.8, allowing multiple instances of the same widget, each with it’s own unique configuration. You can specify how many tags/categories/link categories to show, the size of the smallest and largest ones, which unit and format to use as well as advanced ordering options.
