"From the beginning we have been working to not only allow users to play videos on their desktop, but also be able to run triggered content that could change based on time of day, local weather, or other set events, not to mention dynamically generated content, rendered on-the-fly on their system. A looping video is cool, but what about a rotating planet Earth that accurately shows where it is currently day or night? Or maybe a lake scene that changes from day to night based on your computer clock?

Today, we're ready to unleash DeskScapes 1.01 upon the world! 1.01 includes support for triggers and dynamic dreams..."

Is it not available yet from MS? I checked my available extras in the updates and it isn't listed. Will it come out next week?

follow the link, as it's from stardock. i haven't checked their site today, but so far the "dreams" that need the 1.01 version are not really "there" yet (i like actual footage, rather than cgi atm).

[chriso_86]

so far, and with the grace of MS, stardock is the source. and will be the source. this is it, other than maybe ever so often releases from MS...

[DavARei]

I definately much pref the 3rd party source.

Not a fan of M$ ... but I do use their stuff in lue of an alternative.
They sometimes make me wonder ....
