Fluid is awesome, but it runs so slowly on my TiBook 500 that most of its coolness is lost. Oh well. I have mostly custom screen savers on my comp. I have hundreds of digicam pics and I make screen savers from those.
I love how you can make slideshow screensavers... but it's really annoying how it takes 5-10 minutes for it to start if you have it set to "display in random order." Come on, it should be much faster, it's a simple math operation. Even with hundreds of pictures.
I really like fluid, but there's too many damn options in here. Does anybody know if there's a preset in here to make it look like an LCD screen is relly fscked? I need to scare the crap out of my girlfriend
One way to do that is to set the screen to white on black (I think the shortcut is command-option-control-8 ) and then go into your Displays prefs or just the menubar and set it to "Millions" of colors instead of 256. White on black w/ 256 colors gives you grayscale, but white on black w/ Millions looks like everything is inverted. AND it would be funny, because it wouldn't even stop when she started using it - you can still use your computer normally.
Ok thanks, didn't even think about using any of that too, I'll try it. I recommend getting the screen saver http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/Lattice.html and setting it to 'tasty'.

Install Backlight and use Fluid (with the Aqua 3D theme) as Screen Effect Or without the useage of a Screensaver: make a Screenshot with several open windows and set this picture as desktop picture...

I must try the one you mentioned.
Additionally I really like making my own, just going through my own photos be it of my dog (Jack) or of pics from bike rides etc.

That's mine too.
Back when I used an SGI I loved that famous snipping tile one. It was memorizing.
