WATER SPOTS SCREEN SAVER
For Windows95
=========================================================================
(C) 1995 Lee Lorenz
Well, my first Windows95 program. This one is a simple screen saver the
turns your desktop into a "work of art". It looks much better with
Hi/TrueColor displays, as it does not attempt to manipulate the palette
in any way.
.........................................................................
Installation:
There are TWO methods...
1) Copy WTRSPOTS.SCR to your "win95"\system directory, then simply
use the desktop properties to set it up.
2) Place the WTRSPOTS.SCR file to "some" subdirectory and right click
the icon in the explorer, then select "INSTALL"
The first method is probably most preferred, as the system will "forget"
any screen savers not in the system directory unless that saver is current
(and remains so).
.........................................................................
Not much to say about the operation of it. Setting the Max Size simply
limits the size of the "spots"- they range from 4x4 pixels to Max Size.
The spots may be squares or circles.
.........................................................................
This screen saver has been tested with Build 490 of Windows 95
.........................................................................
Be on the look out for more screen savers from me. I hope to have a
package of savers out before the scheduled release of Windows 95 (All
right back there... stop laughing! Windows 95 *WILL* be out on Aug 24,
1995) I hope to mess around with using DirectDraw and dealing with the
small preview display.
