Smile Desktop and screen saver question

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys
I'm wondering if theres anything out there that has light effects or something that can be applied as a desktop background.

example that came to my mind was the background for the trailer of the bourne identity, if anybody knows what I'm talking about.

I'm not talking about moving pictures as in a slide show, but an actual background that moves/changes in some way.

Same goes for a screen saver - the stock ones on my mac are kinda boring and unoriginal IMO.

Thanks for any help

Vista with dream scene will do that.

Dream
Dreams are animated wallpaper in .Dream format. They require the user to have Stardock DeskScapes installed to use .Dream files. The result is a spectacular animated desktop experience that uses relatively little CPU and resources thanks to the 3D hardware acceleration of Windows Vista.

You said you had a mac. Look up Wallsaver on the Apple website. I recommend it with Strands.

I used to have a background that was an animated level of Super Mario 3. It looked awesome. It was interactive too, you could click on the goombas, and they'd get squashed, etc.
