Screen Savers - not quite
Authored by: SeanAhern on Nov 01, '01 05:16:33PM

The description was a bit misleading. Yes, the program allows you to use images from the Apple-bundled screen savers. But I had thought (erroneously) that I could use any full-motion screen saver as the background image. That's not the case. The program merely provides convenient shortcuts to the folders containing the still images that Apple uses in the default Nature, etc. screens savers.

I didn't provide the full details on the 'screensaver' aspect of the program; I've fixed it now. I haven't heard of any sort of hack to make the full-motion screensavers play as background images. You might give SaverLab a look -- it runs the modules in a resizable window on the desktop. Quite cool, actually, but not quite the same as running them as your desktop. -rob.
