Thanks for all the suggestions

Updates:
Made the text a little clearer while keeping the fading/3D look.
Increased the size threshold one notch to allow for a little more randomness.
Added looping backgrounds.

Anything else?

It's the best one. I'm serious I really like it

How do you set the screen saver you just built onto your screen saver settings?

Response to Official Ng Screensaver Competition 2006-04-30 12:42:13


Sorry for double posting I figured it out.

Response to Official Ng Screensaver Competition 2006-04-30 12:47:50

Response to Official Ng Screensaver Competition 2006-04-30 13:04:12

This comp was actually more successful than I thought it was going to be. Good job :).

Will the screensavers be exported in Mac and PC?

Allright, i'll send you one for now and the rest when the competition has ended.
If you could post a screenshot of it on a mac that would be good, just to see what it loks like.

Yes, screensavers are generally .exe :)

I can't convert the .swf to screen-saver format, I don't really know what you want me to do.

Response to Official Ng Screensaver Competition 2006-04-30 16:36:32


K, i'll send you the .exe. It is not a virus. Just install it and turn it on in your mac settings or whatever.
Sorry, i thought you had a converter.

S'ok, I've looked many times, but the only ones I've found are for PC.

Response to Official Ng Screensaver Competition 2006-04-30 16:43:12

It looks good. Thanks for using my colour wheel :) There isn't a newgrounds font, it is custom, they don't want to spread it incase it gets published everywhere. Sorry.

Yes, but they are not the best thing. If you have a screensaver it generally turns off when you move the mouse. But abit of interactivity is always nice.

YAY 7 FRIGGIN PAGES!

I just got started on mine, and I was wondering, by NG color wheel you mean that orangey yellow and black/white or the 24272b forum color? And is it alright if we add a tiny bit of a different color too?
