Screensavers
Does anyone know of a website that has free, good screensavers? I can't seem to find any good sites.

Just a comment, Hi Ho. Running screen savers extends your startup time and uses more resouces and hdd space. Lots 'o folks (like me) just set power options to turn off the monitor after 15 minutes. My machines run much better since I quit using screen saver programs. Don't think they are written very well, cuz they all seem to lock up on occassion. JMO

I have never had a screeensaver that ran in the background when it wasn't in use. I found the same sites on Google and I wasn't impressed by any of them.

All screen savers are good for any more is entertainment - monitor burnin hasn't been an issue for many years. Builtin Windows screen savers are generally fine, they don't clobber the system like some 3rd party ones.

I know they don't help in any way. I'm just bored with the blank screen. I want something that will add some Christmas cheer.

Is there any way to make your own screen savers?
