Every so often they will post a poll on what people want next to be added to the site. This time it was the boot screens. I think it also was the highest before the latest one too but they had to figure out a way to do them without hacking windows. So now they have the boot screens. I'm not sure where screen savers stood on the poll last time so I'm not sure if I can tell if that might be the next one or not. But it just wasn't the popular choice that the skinners wanted yet.

Screensavers have executable code content which 'can' be an issue with virus dissemination so are unlikely ever to be hosted here....

I believe that what Geoffrey wrote is right. But their are a lot of places to get very nice screensavers. XX made a program that uses svg to make screensavers. Very interesting and it has a lot of pontential.

Yeah. I just need more time, which is hard to come now, with college started.

Yeah. My screensaver is basically skinnable, altough a little hard if you don't know SVG format. It's vector with tons of features.

Kinda like flash, but kind you can edit in notepad.

That's exactly how I made the playlist and SVG files in fact.

Plenty of really good screenies out there .... like AquaReal (well, I like it!)..... but you get to pay for the good ones.
The 'free' ones are not great and if you D/L one from "Freeze" you get spammed to death!
Then there's the 'included' spyware. >
