KaleidoShine screensaver
Saturday, November 24th, 2007 11:17 pmI've finished coding my screensaver, and have named it "KaleidoShine" - this is an improvement, I feel, from the "Newwave" name I had used previously for the regular (non-screensaver) program.
If your computer is running Windows and you'd like to try the screensaver out, it can be downloaded from here:
http://home.earthlink.net/~shaku8jinn/mir/mo/zip/KaleidoShine.zip
Unzip the KaleidoShine.scr file and place it in your Windows\System32 folder. Then it will be available for selection when you right-click on your desktop, open the Properties window, and go to the "Screen Savers" tab. You can configure the speed, shapes, and number of shapes in the Settings window.
The original Windows program is still available for download from here:

It has additional color configuration options that I did not include in the screensaver.
The online java version which has fewer features but which can run in a browser is also available at the above link; but it is somewhat buggy. On my machine for example, I have to switch to another window and back again before it displays right.
