Good Screensavers - Where?

**we87** · 07-31-2006, 06:33 PM

Well personally, after having my carputer installed for a few days, I have come to the conclusion that visualizations are cool, but not that cool...

I personally think that screensavers are the way to go for entertainment while music is playing. (Or a picture slideshow, but thats besides the point) I have Windows XP Media Center Edition installed and it came with a really nice 3d Aquarium screensaver, which works really well... And looks really nice.

I want some more decent screensavers, but when I search I only find the crappy free ones

So my question is: Does anybody on here have some decent screensavers or at least know of a site where I could grab some?

Thanks In Advance!

3d Aquarium is a good one. Depends what your pc can handle. There's some realy nice 3d ones but your computer needs ot be able to handle them. Will need Dx9 video card etc..

Yeah, I understand that. As far as that goes I've covered..... But they dont even have to be 3D, just something nice and good looking... Something to show off with really...

All of my friends so far have really liked the idea of having a fish tank in the car. hehe.

Considering we're not in your head, we have no idea what you would consider a good screensaver.

Personally, I like some of the 3D visualizations as a screensaver.

Also rememeber, in lots of places it's illegal to have moving images (movies) playing in view of the driver...

Just one thing to think about...

Peace,

I get your point. Well, I really liked the Fish Tank screensaver. So something along those lines.... Like a Fireplace for example. Not flashing colors (like visualizations) but something more life like. Keep in mind this is all for show off at this point. Because when its just me in the car, im not looking anyway so I could care less

And this isnt a post like "WHERES THE SCREENSAVERS HELP!" This is a post asking what do you guys use... Or what would you reccomend. Because everything I have found is flashing colors, just like visualizations. And thats not what I want.

True. But the good thing about my particular set up is (for the moment anyway) my screen cant really be seen by the outside while driving. Its in the dash, and if your driving behind me or on the sides you cant see it. The only thing you do see is the colors reflecting off the seats and my face. But other than that, its pretty much stealth as far as cop'ers go... Now when I get LCD's for my headrests, that will be a different story... hehe
