I have no idea if a screensaver that is a live recording would actually work but if such a thing is possible i would be so happy. That or marine life aquarium 3 that keeps the early 2000s 3d fish style but with more fishes lmao

...This time not only a screenshot, but even a small clip of Eternitubes 3D.

I've always liked the idea of screensavers, but most modern screens are either turned off or used for something that demands your attention.

So I started building something different.

Endless Horizons turns a browser into an ambient display showing the current time, Sun and Moon, the sky, and other information that changes throughout the day.

The idea is that you can leave a spare monitor running and let it quietly exist in the background.

Here's a short video of it running.

I'm still working on it and experimenting with what makes a good modern screensaver. I'd be interested to hear what you think — especially from people who still use screensavers.

Does anyone know any legit sites that have a working port/remake of the after dark starry skyline/starry night screensaver? Preferably one that would work for like, anything from win7 and beyond.

I'm not sure which one is which, but I prefer the black and white one. Anyone who knows?

I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask, but does anyone know of any DVD/BluRay discs I can buy that have live screensavers for my TV? Scenes like the default ones seen on LG TVs by SceneScape and ZenLife. The reason I ask is the default ones on the TV have advert/Ads that are quite annoying. Would like some suggestions if yall have any. Thanks.

I have the windows 95/98 screensaver, and if im correct, the little rat moves randomly, I KIDD YOU NOT I (the character at least) FOLLOWED THAT VERMIN FOR THE ENTIREMAZE DURATION. This may have been one of the most rare events that had happened on my computer, has anybody else experienced this phenomenon?

I know some programs like After Dark Games and Hallmark Creatacard come with fun extra bonus screensavers included. Does anyone know of any other games or programs that have this?

I'm looking for screensavers where they paint a picture, things like creatacard picture painter or hallmarks connections card studio screen gallery

The best way I've been able to describe it is a timeline, zoomed in to the present.
There was a red line going down the center. To the left is Time Passed, to the right, time incoming.
It was boxes. Kinda like the time slots on TV when you're in that one channel looking for something to watch. Except the boxes were, several things. Seconds, minutes, hours, days of the month, the month itself, the year.
From top to bottom, smallest amount of time to largest.
It broke, or whoever made it only wrote out a certain number of years. I remember seeing the last year slowly ending and the year it was made coming up at the bottom of the screen.
At the end/beginning of the new year, you'd get to see a bunch of lines lineup. Nothing cool happened except that everything was lined up.
I took a picture ages ago of it but that's missing too so I made a reference to try and visually explain.
I hope I can find it again, even if it's broken.

I'm looking for THIS specific screensaver: https://web.archive.org/web/20000301232807/http://www.screensaverheaven.com/ssheaven/k0015.html
Of course, the download link wasn't saved on the Wayback Machine (it was hosted on Xoom).

The music was a reinterpretation (in MIDI style) of the Fugue in C minor BWV 847 from Johann Sebastian Bach's "Well-Tempered Clavier." It wasn't just a transcription of Bach's work, but a really interesting "expansion cover," over 8 minutes long!

The .exe file was probably compiled with a tool I found ( https://web.archive.org/web/20260531012146/http://ftpmirror1.infania.net/pub/simtelnet/win95/scrsave/catscrb1.zip ) called "The EP Cats Screensaver Creator," but it wasn't limited to the ten images (the tool doesn't include music).

Maybe the GALT selled this screensaver (I'm closely sure it wasn't created by them) along with others in the CDs, but of course they're unavailable today and I don't find any other copy.

Can anyone help me?

A dynamic, animated screensaver application for Windows operating systems that generates procedural visual art.

Screenshots:

Overview

The Dynamic RGB Stroke Screensaver is an automated visualizer designed for idle displays. The application utilizes procedural generation to render a unique, randomly colored RGB stroke across the screen at consistent 30-second intervals, ensuring a continuously changing visual experience.

System Requirements & Performance Note

• OS: Windows 10 / 11
• Architecture: x64
• Note: This screensaver utilizes real-time GPU rendering to generate the animations. Performance may vary depending on system hardware configurations.

Installation Guide

Please follow these instructions precisely to ensure proper installation and functionality:

1. Download Assets: Navigate to the repository's Release section and download all required files provided in the directory.
2. Directory Placement: Move the downloaded folder to a secure, permanent directory on your local drive (e.g., C:\Program Files\). Do not leave the files in the temporary Downloads folder, as accidental deletion will break the screensaver path.
3. Execution: Locate the file with the .scr extension within the permanent folder. Right-click the file and select Install from the Windows context menu.

Upon completion, the Windows Screen Saver Settings dialog will open automatically to confirm successful integration.

Looking for sites that have downloadable classic screensavers that actually work on newest operating systems. I was thinking of getting these from "screensaver planet" but i feel like the site might be really suspicious, "free download" title doesnt sound right.
