the lattice scr on the really slick site is mint. be careful when setting up the dimensions and segments on the tori. i got a bit over eager and went for the 100/100 long/lat.this resulted in the death on rundll32.exe (whatever that is) the only way i could fix it was to paste in a fresh rundll32.exe from another pc with the same OS ( w2k).

apart from that it is the best i have ever seen, i can watch it for hours.

I'll tell you what - as Im a nice chap - If someone can point me in the direction of 10+ decent pictures of an Impreza, I'll make a screensaver for you/everyone on the board.

Add your links/pictures to this thread. Ideally, images will need to be a minimum of 800x600.

Hows that sound?

Ok guys/girls,

Screensaver is ready but I think I need to get permission from the car owners so I've requested they all send me an email (on the thread MJ recommended yesterday) - once I've received premission, I'll post a link.

Cheers

Mj - Don't panic!!

I've had most replies - just awaiting a few more! I've got a couple of adjustments that need to be made, but it won't be long. One thing I do want to make clear - it is only a slide show so please don't expect lots of fancy graphics. If it's popular, I'll update it and Improve it as time goes on (I'd really like some ultra high quality full screen images). If it's really popular I might need some help with a mirror site to ease on my bandwidth (the file is currently about 2mb in size and I have about 4GB bandwidth allocation). Any offers? Please contact me...

I'll keep you posted!

Hi

Ok guys and girls - The screensaver is ready for you all to download. Visit:

http://www.scoobysaver.co.uk and click the download button.

It's about 2mb in size so it shouldn't take too long. I do have a limited bandwidth allocation so I'm counting the number of downloads. Once (or if) it hits 1500 downloads I'm going to have to pull the plug till next month. If there are any others out there who'd like to offer a mirror site, please contact me at Georgio@findaclub.net.

As mentioned on the site, I'm currently looking for contributors for the next version - This time, images MUST be 1024 x 768 and of high quality. If you've got any, please send them to me (don't worry about file size).

Hope you like it

All the best,

Georgio

Hi Luke,

Sorry to hear about the problems -

What exactly is happening when you install it? Does the screen lock up, or is there any other indication of an error? Can you preview it successfully before clicking "Install"?

Please let me know (by email if poss).

Cheers

Georgio
