In Response To: Screensavers! (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! : Epitaph : Valhalla : 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. This is amazing, love it! It seems a little memory intensive though, im wary of using it incase it crashes my system whilst im running other aps?
