| Screensavers! | |

In Response To: Spherical Panorama: Valhalla (HaLo2FrEeEk) Since the desire for a screensaver version of this seemed pretty obvious, I did some looking around and came up with something nice. I'm still not 100% satisfied, since the panorama only rotates on the horizontal axis and not the vertical, but it'll do for now. Since my Epitaph panorama is pushed so far down the list now, I'll post the download links for both here in this thread. And here they are! Also, consider this an update as well. I worked on these things all night trying to fine-tune a lot of settings. I came up with a viewer skin that I liked (meaning I made the thing pretty much from scratch.) I really like how the new skin looks, the loading bar is smaller and out of the way, and fades out nicely once everything is done loading. I also added a nice little glow to the mysterious link in the bottom-right, and changed the sound on/off button from an ugly box with text to a nice picture ("borrowed" from Windows Mdia Player 12) and made the text quickly pop on then fade out when the sound is turned on or off. All in all, it came together quite nicely. Oh, I also changed it to tile the cube faces, so now instead of loading 6 large images (each face is 2316x2316, with 6 faces that's a lot of information you're loading in sequence) you'll be loading 9 smaller images per cube face, but you'll download them simultaneously, so load times should increase.
