Wallsaver is a free and easy to use Cocoa application (written in AppleScript) that allows users to run their screen savers as their desktop wallpaper.
NOTE: Wallsaver is free for personal use.
Here are some key features of "Wallsaver":
· Wallsaver doesn`t have to be running 24/7. You can launch Wallsaver, activate your screen saver, and then quit the program. Restoring your desktop is just as easy. Open up Wallsaver, click "Restore", and you`re set.
· It`s simple. The original application was only 30 lines of code.
· It`s cool. Now you will be able to show off the full potential of your Mac by letting it power through a task that would definitely bring a PC to its knees
Requirements:
· Quartz Extreme capable graphics card with at least 32 MB of memory
· A screen saver worth applying as the desktop background.
