I\'ve been procrastinating from doing any \"real\" programs lately.... I\'ve become preoccupied with making small fun things....hehehe... anyway one of these procrastinating programs is a screensaver.

It allows the user to use their own graphics to make \"Object Themes\". I\'ve made about 30 different \"Object Themes\" myself. Some of them are really cool, but I can\'t legally pass them on as they are made from images that I do not have legal rights to distribute.

The only Object Theme included with the screensaver is called \"Aces\" and it\'s terrible, but it\'s enough to give the general idea of what the Object Themes do. Besides, making your own object themes is half the fun.

For the absolute best object themes, use graphics that are completely surrounded by black. Thus in the screensaver the objects give the illusion of being their own shape rather than square.

Anyways, if you\'d like to take a look at it you can download it from [url=\"http://members.shaw.ca/flyingdoggyjake/timesaver.html\"]here[/url]

If you make any Object Themes that you have legal rights to .... it\'d be fantastic if you would like to share them.

Anyway, I always love to hear feedback.

I tested this programme yesterday for Jake, and it\'s really cool. Easy to use, and it\'s even fun. I highly recommend it. <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... >/good.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(Y)\' />

The alarm function works extremely well....only thing I can suggest is uhm.....a repeat/no-repeat function for those of us who forget to turn it off. <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /blink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':blink:\' />

Love is all a matter of timing.

It's no good meeting the right person too soon or too late.

If I'd live in another time or place...

...my story might have had a very different ending.

Good idea, I\'ve come back to my computer and wondered who the heck turned it off.... I think this may explain it! .... I\'ll be sure to add a "repeat" or "one time only" option to it on the next version.

Thanks for pointing this out <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

There, I\'ve added a \"One Time Only\" or \"Everyday\" option to the alarm. It is on the version (version 1.3) which is offered for download. <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />
