Just added a feature that will make your desktop come through your windows (defaults to 30% transparency) after a configurable about of minutes of inactivity (defaults to 5 minutes). That way if you step away from your computer, your animated desktop will pop through windows and become visible.
Here is a little something I wrote this week. If you wished you could have a dream as your screen saver, then DreamScreenSaver is your answer! It takes you currently active dream and makes it your screen saver! Download it FREE here . The one limitation is that you can't using Vista's native "On resume, display logon screen". You have to disable it and re-enable it in the DreamScreenSaver configuration window. <br
The new payment system is up and running. You can now [link="http://dreammanager.wikidot.com/purchase"]purchase[/link] Dream Manager for just $9.95!
:CONGRAT:
I always did it myself by pasting the start of the video to the end of the video and cross faded it. Try searching for some tutorials.

Thanks Bebi! I fixed the links, and will have to fix the wiki so it works on a non-widescreen monitor like mine ;) Thanks again!
I should have purchasing ready in the next day or so, but in the mean time: Visit the [link="http://dreammanager.wikidot.com/"]Dream Manager Wiki[/link] for more information or try an unregistered version of [link="http://vistadreams.org/DreamManager/DreamManagerSetup.exe"]Dream Manager[/link] now to find out how easy it is to manager your dreams! Please let me know what you think!
Excellent!
[quote]I'm currently using the old version, and while good it does have it's limitations. With the improvements detailed above I would defintely purchas the new one as long as the price isn't too steep.CheersRowan[/quote] The price is going to be $24.95 and that includes two new dreams I've made. I've added an auto-update feature that will allow me to add new features as time goes on so your getting more than your initial purchase.
To tell you the truth, I didn't think for selling it as a "skin". It just didn't seem like it fit into the WinCustomize model to sell 3rd party software. Since I have been dealing with another site that specializes in dreams, I figured it would be a good idea to partner with them.
Thought you would never ask ;) I kind of recall something about not be able to post message trying to sell software. But this is on topic so I wasn't sure if it was OK?

Folders will be watched for new/removed files and update list accordingly. * Thumbnail view for all types * Change desktop on a timed interval, e
I've been slow on making dreams these past few months because I've been working on a rewrite of my Dream Manager software. Am I allowed to plug it here when its ready for sale?
[quote]I bought it, and found it lacking. 1 to 10, I rate it about a 5and should not have been a 'master level' dream. The sun looks very good but the small orbiting rocks look terrible, and ruin the whole scene. I've purchased all of Master B's dreams, loved all of them except this one.[/quote] Sorry you didn't like it sg and your the second person to mention the orbiting rocks. I did the best I could and so it is what it is. While not perfect, I don't think they look terrible. <
Seems the internal player is not working for me because I have two monitors with different aspec ratios. Below is a screen shot of fit to screen with cropping and as you can see both images distort the circle. Even the 16:10 monitor is distorted even though this dream in 16:10. All the modes produce the squished view on the second monitor. Here are links to the other modes and how they are distorted. htt
I'm currently uploading my new master dream called "Red Giant". I hope everyone enjoys it! I'll be making matching login and wallpaper skins soon.
Thanks again to everyone for the positive response. [quote]Very slick Baron. How long did it take to put that together?[/quote] It only took an hour to figure this out once I got the video turner sample from the MS Silverlight gallery page. I'm a web developer by day, so reading the javascript wasn't a problem. I also know .NET so that helped with the silverlight parts. I just plugged in my videos and links, ran a batch conversion of my dreams to make lower quality WMV files a
[quote]I would love to see your work, is silverlight for Vista 32 also? I have Vista home premium OS and no XP drivers. Thanks in advance for your answer.Sherryah[/quote] Yes, Silverlight works on both XP and Vista
Thanks everyone! [quote]Where did you find tutorials for silverlight? I tried to make some but cant get it working[/quote] Actually, I just took the video turner from the gallery and fumbled around with it until I got my content into it.
I've been messing around with MS Silverlight and have uploaded a version of my gallery using it. It's a lot easier to preview my dreams using this site. It requires you to install Microsoft's Silverlight, and runs on either FF and IE. Check it out here: http://wcgallery.mooo.com/ Let me know what you think! Thanks, Master Baron

[quote]One request though would be that it include video files (avi, mpg), as well as .dream. Is that possible?[/quote] I haven't worked on the application is some time. If I do revisit the tool then I'll see if I can get it to support both dreams and videos.
Actually, it seems to be a slump from 2003-2006. 2002 and 2007 both show as many 10s as 2003 through 2006 combined.
I was just looking at the top rated wallpapers to see what color/style was most popular (I think blue wins) and noticed that there isn't a single 10 rated wallpaper in 2004?!?! What happened in 2004? Was it seeing John Kerry's face all year suck the creativity out of everyone? I guess they could have all been updated into another year. All of them? Really?
