The screensaver is fab!!! Thanks very much for doing it!!!!! Very Happy

BTW, just unzip the screensaver to C:WindowsSystem which should be in the unzip program by default. Then just select the screensaver from the display properties screensaver tab.

Thanks for all your positive feedback guys!

I know the server is getting overloaded because over 50 of you are downloading it AT ONCE! I checked with the stats ... its just MAD! I can't believe that so many people wanted it!

I'm getting more requests every minute! I can't believe it!

I'll try to get a backup file server in place cos its just phenominal!

Cheers Very Happy

Also a little 'easter egg' - this only works *properly* for the BBC TWO clock, however I am trying to also make it work for the BBC ONE clock as well:

Right click while the screensaver is loaded.

See what happens Wink

The new fileserver is now in place. Go to the download site and use the Mirror server if you're having trouble!

But please don't overload it... spread it out. Some people use the normal server and others use the mirror server. That way there'll be enough bandwidth for all Smile

How many people would like the BBC N24 clock?

Also I need some images of them - to be honest I dont watch N24 so I don't know what it looks like! But hey, I'll give it a go Wink

If you read the instructions on the download page this means that you've downloaded the version for a monitor resolution that is different to yours.

Make sure you download the correct version that appertains to your monitor resolution! Wink
