Animated desktops anyone?

[jred321]

for the longest time i've been wondering if I could get the scrolling matrix letters on my desktop, but have always been too lazy to find out if i could have an animated wallpaper. Well today i decided to look and found it. it's pretty sweet, the program that does it has different options. it lets you see the wallpaper still and have the letters scroll over it, so i changed the wallpaper to the agents in the green letters, and with the green letters scrolling on top of it it looks sweet. here is a still shot. does anyone else have animated desktops, or know of other utilities that can do other animations?

Thats pretty cool!!

I used to have an active desktop...and i think it was from Geiss.

It was like a liquid lava lamp, but it took massive amounts of memory!

You can display animated gifs using active desktop which is built into windows

the program that I believe jred is using is ZMatrix, I haven't used it much but Norton doesn't seem to have a problem with it...

I just downloaded the program..and it's pretty cool. How much ram is this taking up though?
