Winter screensaver

#1 Postby GalvestonDuck » Wed Nov 16, 2005 1:51 pm

I've searched here with "screensaver," "snow screensaver," and "winter screensaver," but I can't find the original thread from last year from someone who posted the really awesome screensaver that showed a house, covered in snow, with lots of Christmas lights. The shot looked almost like a real photo.

I still have the screensaver, but I remember there was something about how it had to be downloaded and installed from the site. So, my coworkers are asking about it, but I can't send it to them from my desktop. I need to find the link.

Anyone have any other ideas for finding that thread?

Thanks!

There are loads of freeware and shareware screensavers on the internet, but watch out - you can often get viruses and adware/spyware as part of the download.

I have also hosed-up my computer a couple of times by trying to download and install extra "codecs" and stuff needed for some screensavers. Now, if it will not just run as-is, I leave it alone.

I have this one Christmas screensaver, wherein you are flying around city blocks that are snowy and decorated for the holiday. Pretty cool.

I wish that someone would do one like the last shot in the movie A Christmas Story - of the house from the outside and that beautiful snow falling.

I've found a handful of good screensavers. But this is one that someone here brought to our attention.
