Dracusis Maniac (V) Inmate From: Brisbane, Australia Insane since: Apr 2001	posted 08-24-2003 01:51 Hey, thanks Steve! I've yet to test this on the Mac's at University, but it's good to hear there aren't any cross platform issues aside the usual performance problems with certain parts of the shockwave engine on the Mac. One of those being it's imaging lingo performance. Although, as far as I know, Macromedia are aware of a lot of these problems are trying to optimize the Mac version, at lest, they say they are. A big thanks to everyone else as well. I don't need any more tests but feel free to keep posting your results/comments all the same. =) I'll probably also turn this into some kind of screen saver at some point, also with the ability to play MP3's and have the visuals act with the music. Kinda like a win amp screensaver or something -- yeah, maybe, when I have the time. Hah.

I know most of them do, and this is the reason why my current - and forever - screensaver is the default WinXP logo. Imo, it makes no sense to have a screensaver to save the monitor while burning the cpu. I don't want to diminish the beauty of your work, it's really very nice, my daughters loved to keep looking at it - me too - but I just want to tell my opinion about high-demanding cpu SS. Another side effect of these sort of SS's is that the fan atop my CPU goes to a higher rpm, making more noise (because of the increased heating). Otherwise, it's a very quiet cpu+fan.
