wanted: nice and small screensaver

<< < (6/6)

mouser:
nice find yksyks!
flurry is actually kinda nice and calming, and as you say, it works well on multi-monitor setups  :up:

ps. everyone please attach pictures to your posts whenever possible!

Unlikely that anyone else could be interested in something like this, but I've been looking for a while for a screensaver like the stock marquee one but that would pick a random text (the longer, the better) from a list that I can configure.

This could be useful for learning vocabulary, famous quotes, and other things.

Anyone ever noticed such a screensaver?
Everything I've seen is much more visually oriented (esp. animated images).

Shades:
Don't know about a multi-monitor setup (I am using Synergy (a software KVM without the V)), but I really love MotionPicture screensaver because it can zoom, pan, fade and play music for you.

mouser:
MotionPicture Screensaver looks neat.. may have to think about adding some of those features to my own new Multi Photo Quotes screensaver.
