iX Screen Effects 1.2
iX Screen Effects - Classic screensavers remade with Cocoa/Quartz/OpenGL more>>
Macintosh systems shut the monitor off to save energy and improve screen life, and use other techniques to prevent "burn in" on CRT systems. But screen savers are loads of fun, and if one pops up on your screen in an idle moment, or when the phone rings and you take your hands off the keyboard, they can be a pleasant distraction.
It includes original screen savers and the developers version of some classic savers, and even a couple that are down right "retro". Each screen saver has some sort of tunable options, because they are fun. iX Screen Savers are written in Objective C, using Cocoa and Quartz. A few saver, including Xirtam and BabelBloX, use OpenGL.
Desktop Effects 0.1
Desktop Effects - Makes your screensaver your desktop background more>>
This is a simple application that just puts a GUI on top of the command:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ScreenSaver.framework/Resources/ScreenSaverEngine.app/Contents/MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background
Unfortunately this command no longer works in 10.3 "Panter"- so you are out of luck there if you are running it.
Completly freeware.

FackBore Effects is designed as a useful System Preferences module which allows one to select a single screen saver to run on the desktop or multiple screen savers to run in the foreground (partially transparent over the desktop). more>>
FackBore Effects 1.0 is designed as a useful System Preferences module which allows one to select a single screen saver to run on the desktop or multiple screen savers to run in the foreground (partially transparent over the desktop). Foreground and background screensavers can be configured to automatically start at login. Source is included.
AVOID OPEN GL SCREENSAVERS IN THE FOREGROUND UNLESS YOUR SYSTEM IS QUARTZ EXTREME CAPABLE! Even with QE, screen savers in the foreground can have an extremely detrimental affect to UI responsiveness.
Recommenations: Try Plasma Tunnel, IGS Twisted, or SpiroScales in the foreground. Euphoria works great in the background. Slide shows look neat, as well.
While this is freeware, tips are appreciated.
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.2 or higher

Fully-featured mac mass mailer for Macintosh Panther computer supporting message templates and recipient database. It offers everything you need to create and maintain mailing lists for different needs and send mass messages directly form your Mac at a very high speed. It uses Apple Mails message delivery framework to deliver your messages. This means that 100 percent of your email messages will get delivered properly to recipient mailboxes as if they were delivered by Apple Mail in a regular way. The recipient database is fully customizable. You can add as many recipient fields as you want and use them in message templates for the purpose of personalizing your messages. Each recipient will receive individualized message as if it were separately sent with Apple Mail personally for him in a regular way. Message creation mechanism is the same as in Apple Mail. Each message may contain colourful text in different fonts, pictures and attachments. You can even copy a HTML document to the clipboard and then paste it to the message editor of Mac Mass Mailer if you already have one ready to be sent. Mac Mass Mailer also lets you suspend your current sending and resume it later at any time. This mechanism works on a per-document basis. Every mailing project can be suspended and resumed independently. Sending statistics is greatly visualized. You do not have to deal with log files you do not understand. It is simple as one, two and three; in your mailing groups, the successful recipients become green, the bad recipients become red and the unprocessed ones stay black as they were before you hit the Start Sending button. Import and Export feature in the program is so powerful that you can import email addresses and other recipient data from virtually any files. The program can even travel through your hard drive and extract all email addresses from all your files and directories. The user interface of the program is professionally designed according to the Mac OS X guidelines.

Think Different Screen Saver 0.2

Think Different Screen Saver 0.2 reminds users of Apple's Think Different campaign with meaningful themes.This is a tribute to Apple, doing what others don't dare (or care) to. Unfortunatelly, what's left of this historical ad campaign on Apple's website lies in a simple press release library webpage and a "memorial" page. The posters and the places are placed where those posters have been to fade in and out on Mac's display.
