- Active Desktop 1.043, No More Desktop — Do you really love that boring Windows «desktop» concept? I personally don?t. Even if I could believe there were desktops in size of a stool, I still wouldn?t believe that a handful of icons are the only things I could place on my desktop. I want some more of dynamics, I want some more of information, and I want some more of beauty, after all! If you feel yourself the same way…
- Art of Japanese Crosswords — It’s a game. Moreover, it’s a Japanese game. Created not so far (1987) by the Japanese puzzle-master Tetsuya Nishio, the game, however, soaked up the ancient culture and civilization. It’s an art. The pictures are simple, the drawing is logical, not creative; but when the puzzle is solved, you suddenly see some small piece of art created by your mind and your hands from the plain and unpretentious…
- ProSaver Screensaver Manager 1.0.1, Screensavers as Art — Years ago, in the times of single-task OSes and old monitors, the «screen-saver» concept was introduced as a must (because if the same picture remained on the old screen for too long, the picture would physically damage the screen and create «burnt-out pixels» on it.) Years have passed, and modern monitors have almost no need for «saving the screen». Nevertheless, screensavers are still alive and are becoming some kind…
- Museum of New Psychedelic Art — Although screensavers only occasionally appear on our displays, they greatly add to the aesthetic appeal of our computers, especially now, when the functional role of screensavers has drastically diminished due to the overall dominance of LCD monitors. Standard Windows screensavers are not even nearly as impressive as commercial products available on the market. If you are looking for a bright, eye-catching and unusual screensaver, check out…
- The Collector's Crown, To Be Proud of Your Collection — You surely do want to index your very special collection and show it off in the best possible shapes and colors. Picture frames that look like the standard operating windows won’t work as they don’t please the eye. So, when choosing the collection management software, you do want to pick something a little more attractive, something comparable to the value of your collection. This is where The…
- Perfect Clock, It's an Art — Numerous times a day we look at the clock — on the wall, on the desk, on our computer desktop… And what do we see? — A pair of arrows in a circle or a few digits around the blinking dots? Perfect Clock gives a whole different idea on clock and timing, presenting time as a perfect combination of punctuality, power and art. Perfect Clock is a very flexible desktop…
- Mandala Painter, An Entertaining Art — Even the prettiest flower on earth is actually a great combination of simpler shapes (petals), symmetrically repeated around the circle. This is also true about other «tricky» masterpieces — snowflakes, shining stars, and even the most unrealistic designs capturing our eye through the glass of a kaleidoscope. Too sad — all of those exciting figures soon just pass away, and the best we can do about that…
- AutoWallpaper - a kaleidoscope of wallpapers with stunning visual effects — If you are a proud owner of a shop or a multi-monitor system, you may eventually want to use your monitors to decorate your display case or workplace. A single panoramic screensaver or synchronized switching of several wallpapers would be ideal for a vivid demonstration, but setting it up using standard OS means is quite problematic, if not impossible. If you would like to breathe new life…
- Video Guide to Paint Shop Pro - all you need to create a masterpiece in no time — Starting with Paint Shop Pro is not easy. As intuitive as it is, it’s still a complex solution which requires months to get used to. Luckily, there are many ways to accelerate this process — books, tutorials and lessons are widely available in stores and online. However, most of them are too wordy, too general (or, on the contrary, too focused) or do not give a clear picture of the process…
