Want a Screensaver?

Dude, get this screensaver

I’ve always loved the RSS Screensaver for OS X. But I wanted to have a version of it without any of the text, so I went in and made one and came up with a slightly different color scheme.

If you’d like it, you’re welcome to it. Below are both the link to download and some brief installation instructions.

Here’s how to install in a couple easy steps:

  • Download and unzip the sphere.zip file
  • Open Macintosh HD » Users » Your User Name » Library » Screen Savers
  • Drop the unzipped file into that folder
  • Open System Preferences » Desktop & Screensaver
  • Look under “Other,” find and select “Sphere”
  • Enjoy!

General disclaimers: I’m not responsible if this murders, maims or otherwise does something damaging to your computer (it won’t, I’ve been using it for a while!), and this screen saver requries OS 10.4 or greater to work. Sorry Windows and Linux folks.
