Mine's a floating German flag.

Er...generic moving windows symbol....how crap am I? *goes to change screensaver*

"My God...it's full of stars!"




















...plain old Star Field here, call me old fashioned.

I don't have a screensaver. I just have my monitor enter power saving mode and shut itself off.

The fakey Ken Burns slide show made up of random crap I picked out. And a whole lot of dune buggies. Because dune buggies are cool.

I don't have a screensaver. I just have my monitor enter power saving mode and shut itself off.
I don't even have that, because it has an annoying habit of shutting off when I'm watching downloaded movies. Instead, I just turn it off when I'm not using it.

I don't have a screensaver. I just have my monitor enter power saving mode and shut itself off.
...mine does that about 5 minutes after the screensaver kicks in, I'm not sure how to stop that happening?! Nip to the bathroom...come back, and i've been shut down?! Grrrarr

Picture of my Dog!

Same here.

And @ the OP: Do we have yet another pretend- or wannabe German here? What is so popular about that place?

In Windows? Umm... IIRC, right click the desktop, properties, screensaver, change the energy saving settings.

Again, me too.

BOINC (http://boinc.berkeley.edu/), but powersave's only a couple of minutes behind it.

Aw thanks dear! *hugs yooou*

I also now have March of the Penguins Screensaver...I do love the penguins!

heh

You don't know who I am? Go ahead. Take a wild guess.

The SETI at Home (http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/) program. It runs analytical tests using my computer when said computer is not in use.

EDIT: It uses the BOINC software to which CD alluded above.

I also have SETI@home, I got my T-shirt and everything :)

My kid has Marquee of her spelling words.

My husband has a laptop, so no screensaver.

No oh so cute hamster pics? *amazement*

IF I had a computer, and IF it were working, I MIGHT have one of those dancing words kinda thingies as a screensaver- IF the repair folks let it the way it was before, that is.

IMy husband has a laptop, so no screensaver.
:confused: I have a laptop, too. But I still have a screensaver. Did I just embarrass myself? :(

At home, it's something lame like the star field, then eventually goes to power save.

At work, I check the Astronomy Pic of the Day site (http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html) every morning and good ones get added to a screensaver folder that gets cycled through. So I have a bunch of kick ass pictures of nebulas and galaxies for my screensaver.

:confused: I have a laptop, too. But I still have a screensaver. Did I just embarrass myself? :(
no, he just turns it on when he needs it and shuts it down when he isn't actively using it.

He gets kinda mad at me for leaving my computer "up" all the time, but the Seti@home makes it a little less annoying for him.

As of the most recent stats that I have checked, I have done more packets on Seti than 74.049% of the other users!:D

And @ the OP: Do we have yet another pretend- or wannabe German here? What is so popular about that place?

I was thinking the same thing...

:confused: I have a laptop, too. But I still have a screensaver. Did I just embarrass myself? :(
Yes, although not with the screensaver issue. ;)
I was thinking the same thing...
I'm amazed at how much thinking you all do.. I just sighed. And briefly considered making a thread where I'd auction off my German citizenship, to see how high a bid I could haul in-

But your Germanic ancestry is faulty. ;)

Mine is of Cartman starting on a table who then starts singing and dancing.

no, he just turns it on when he needs it and shuts it down when he isn't actively using it. Phew. For a moment there I was all "Damn, maybe laptop screens don't need screensavers and I'm the only sucker who doesn't know that!" >.<

Yes, although not with the screensaver issue. ;) Oh shuddup, you hamster fiend.

But your Germanic ancestry is faulty. ;)
'Sif that would deter anyone. :rolleyes:

Mine is a big floating peice of text that shows the time! :D

Just the "beziers" thing for the PC I use at work. At home on the Mac it's the built-in "beaches" slide show (which makes me sad because I haven't been to a beach in ages).

'Sif that would deter anyone. :rolleyes:

Would you be so surprised if it did, knowing the people who would line up to buy it anyway? :p

Yes. Yes I was. Keruvalia said something in a lighthearted manner, but when I responded in the same manner, it somehow because a threat.

At home I don't use a screensaver, if I'm not at the computer I just shut down the moniter.

At work it goes blank after about 5 minutes of not touching it.

I have a Stargate screensaver. I wanted a travelling through the wormhole one but I couldn't find it :(

I have a Rome total war screensaver. I'd have a Seti@home one but I couldn't get it to work when they switched to BOINC. Maybe I'll go for that electricsheep site.

...mine does that about 5 minutes after the screensaver kicks in, I'm not sure how to stop that happening?!
(o).(o)

You, uh... click right mouse button on desktop, enter settings... go under screen saver... you were kidding, right?

I have Flying Toasters.

My screensaver kicks in after 10 mins and my monitor shuts down after 20 mins.

I don't have a screensaver. I just have my monitor enter power saving mode and shut itself off.


yup ive got that too

i use have to have a red alert two one which was Zepplins' flying over the statue of liberty

Mine's the cover of the Miles Davis album "A Jazz Tribute to Jack Johnson."

my screen saver?

I believe even mentioning it will result in me getting deleted by the mods ;).



Really though?
It's kinda my own creation.

I got bored one day and started to download space pics onto my computer.
Found over a hundred photos of various galaxies, nebulas planets, comits.
My computer enables me to choose a folder with a bunch of pics. in them and it will generate a screen saver.

Yes, I'm facinated by space. The main reason why I Rp as FT and not as MT or PMT.

NERD!!! *swirlie*

At the moment I've got my iPhoto Library rollin as my screensaver - various pictures, mainly of me and family in the Lake District. In light of this thread though, I might swap to one of the BOIC things, or possibly the Electric Sheep thing - they both look pretty cool.

I suppose conscience would dictate the BOINC thing, but come on! Electric Sheep!

the floating windows thingy, then it goes into powersave

The Microsoft fish tank.

setiathome via BOINC.....

Haven't had a screensaver activated in years. If I have, it's always the Starfield. Mmmh, Enterprise front screen memories... :p

http://piratepenguins.ytmnd.com/
LOL!!!!!....

Well I have only one thing to retaliate with...I apologise for the off topicness of this...

Give THIS (http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/trailer) a watch, I found it amusing.

I want those penguins as my screensaver...although I'd imagine that to be quite irritating after a while.

Hadn't looked into it if I'm honest, sure I'd have found it after some exploration... I thought you had posted boobs in response to my post but now I see they are a facial expression!

Mine is the ever-popular, generic, white bread - blank screen!

John Stewart...on a screensaver.

I think I love you *nods*

A slideshow of awesome art screenshots taken in Google Earth and in Celestia. So a given image might be Mt. Everest, the moons of Jupiter, a highway interchange, Earth at night, or the wheat fields of Kansas seen at 30,000 feet.

Mine is from the Phantom of the Opera movie. It's got pictures of Christine and the Phantom with quotes in fancy handwriting. I love it...I could watch it for hours.

a countdown of how long bush has left in office.

@ Rhaomi & Terrorist Cakes: Your sigs make me confuse you already, but I think you posting right after each other just gave me whiplash. :p

Man, you're the second guy in this thread saying that.

Jon Stewart is totally my pimp.

*does pimp dance*

Mine shuts off before the screen saver kicks in.

I hate screen savers.

For me? Always. Mind including a laptop? *innocense*Well, I meant for the blushing bride & groom, really. And no, a laptop is way too expensive a gift for a fake marriage. How about a bag of chips and a six pack?

Oh, *that* safe? Vitamin B, I say.. *makes some phone calls*

H'okay.. seeing how I'm a, what's it, teetotaler, I think that's rather unfair a deal.. ow about six bags of chips and a sixpack?

I have a screen shot from Freelancer as a screensaver :cool:

Again, me too.

I turn it off because it interferes with what little gaming I do these days...even if it is just single-player....:(

Mine's a floating German flag.

ferrari formula 1 screensaver for me,every now and then i got a hot girl in bikini one i use.

XScreensaver (because kscreensaver is junk (http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/faq.html#kde), mainly because of gross violation of the general principles of intelligent software design, i.e. thou shalt not fix what is not broken) with the XMatrix hack, as in the picture here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xscreensaver

(edit: or GLMatrix (http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/screenshots/) if the computer in question happens to have a capable video card installed.)

This program callled "StickMen." Two giant teams of stickmen come and attack each other on my screen, "destroying" my desktop in the process :D

My screensaver is of some retarded girl greeting 4chan.org with a giant gummy grin.

Yet another bonus. I was thinking more about the person's life, but even better if it benefits the lions, too.
