anyone who has seen or owns wiondows media center addition has seen the amazing aquarium screensaver can i get this anywere like can anyone send me their .scr or are their compatability issues? If so could i fix them by running it in compatability with windows sp2? and if that method is totally out of the question does anyone know of any really good screen savers ? or amazing aquarium ones?

i knew that, i been lingering around techpowerup for a cpl years now and am familiar with a lot of the regulars on here, even YOU pt :twitch: lol (although only just registered) just thought it might have been shortened or somthin, coincidence though with that screensaver and the name alex, maybe i should tell aleccstar lol someones cloning him :wtf:

"Alexander Peter Kowalski" if im not mistaken (hmmm hope he doesnt mind me putting that here lol i mean its not hard to find out his name by googling a few of his tools)

and might i add, i have the upmost respect for aleccstar having read quite a lot of his informative and in-depth posts

No, that's not me, & I didn't write that "Matrix ScreenSaver" either... the one I did is here:

http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/390

It WAS "one of the first ones out there", as far as Matrix ScreenSavers & all that, & I know this, because I started coding it the day after I saw the film back in 1999 in fact, on opening night in fact.

However, it's not the only one, or imo, one of the "BETTER" ones, aesthetically... but, it's clean small code (compared to some of them & yes, I have looked & tested + even discussed code used with other authors of them (techniques mostly)) & does multiple monitors (so you get the "Blonde, Brunette, Redhead" effect noted by "CIPHER" (Joe Pantaliano's role in the film)) where most do not.

Heck - I just HAD to write it: One of the main characters was "APK" (APOC) & it sounded enough like my initials to code it, lol!

and might i add, i have the upmost respect for aleccstar having read quite a lot of his informative and in-depth posts

ALSO: Thanks for the compliments earlier - but, the stuff I "know" or have learned? You'll have that & more as time passes...

See, imo? I am NOT 'that good' really, I just have more time & experience in this field than others who are younger do & on SOME LEVELS, only. Nobody is the "total master of all things computing" after all! I can "get the job done" is how I look @ my skillset is all, which is ALL a guy has to do really imo.

Give yourselves time to learn more (if you stick around this field, especially for a livelyhood) & you'll understand what I meant in that statement.

There is a HECK of a lot in this field, that I just plain do NOT know as well. Learning more, all the time, & there are guys out here that BLOW ME AWAY totally in skills & intelligence, especially regarding this field, trust me on that note.

I "stood on the shoulders of giants" who taught me, or the words they wrote, just like anybody else really.

APK

P.S.=> Heck, today? You've got BETTER tools & knowledgebases than I did when I started out this lunacy... it works to YOUR advantage & it is INEVITABLE you guys will pass me by as far as skillsets & knowledge in this field... plus, spots like this forum? HELP HUGELY FOR THAT - community know-how does help! apk
