Paper Hearts Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Does anyone else you the iTunes screensaver? Or maybe there is an MS variation that you use; if so, which album art graphics are on your screensaver? I have: Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds~Best Of Warsaw~Warsaw Tom Waits~Mule Variations Leonard Cohen~Songs From a Room Archers of Loaf~Seconds Before the Accident the Clash~From Here to Eternity (live) John Frusciante~To Record Only Water for Ten Days Morrissey~You Are the Quarry Smiths~Strangeways Here We Come Siouxsie and the Banshees~Through the Looking Glass Cure~Wish Smiths~the Queen is Dead Jesus and Mary Chain~21 Singles David Bowie~David Live Talking Heads~Little Creatures Smiths~untitled Archers of Loaf~Icky Mettle Morrissey~Your Arsenal I hope I haven't missed any.

Msterbeau Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 ITunes Screensaver?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paper Hearts Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 ITunes Screensaver?? Yes, it's linked to the iTunes music player on your Mac. Any songs that you download have the possibility of being attached to the appropriate album cover art (by iTunes, itself) and if so, that art is then added to a screensaver (which you must enable). Also, if you download a song and it does not automatically find the appropriate album art you may click a thingy for 'get album art' and I suppose that if there is any art to be found for the song, you will receive it, although I haven't tried that method yet.

I took a quick look on the web and found some info on it. Sounds cool. I have yet to fully flesh out all the album art for the music I have. Looks like there's no Windoze version. I suspect it relies on Core Graphics or some other peice of OS-X trickery not present in XP. I'm going to transition over to Mac soon (I hope)... I'll look into it then.

I'm surprised there is no Windows version. I suppose that I must be the only Mac user here, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw.. there's a few others at least. I'm pretty sure Meg is. Same with Mallochai. I can't remember who else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubh Aingeal Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I'm thinking of getting one of the Macbook Pro's. Even though i have a Ipod I don't use Itunes. Of course not running Windoze kind of helps with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallochai Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I don't use screen savers. I just let the mac go into sleep mode. Screen savers are far too mesmerizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
