Review
This nifty screensaver sets your desktop ablaze. When you fire up Fantastic Flame Screensaver (no pun intended), each item on your desktop - including icons and all open windows - will appear to catch on fire, glowing and emitting a smoke effect. Also, plenty of backgrounds (zodiac signs, some movies and games posters, etc.) come included. Of course, you can set ablaze any other image you choose.
The crackling and popping sounds and nice chimes that accompany the screensaver are right on the money. Also, you can set your favorite music for playing in background.
Fantastic Flame Screensaver has a lot of very different self-explanatory colorful flame presets, such as: Wood, Petroleum, Thermovisor, Propane, Hypericin, Metallic Ice, Copper Oxide, Orchid and many others (more than 50 in total!).
Finally, Fantastic Flame has the Random Preset - you never get tired of watching!
The feature-packed, well-organized Preferences window lets you alter the flame palette, speed, spire length, and flame intensity, change the wind direction, and choose how quickly the flames fade out on exit.
A nice feature: using the F key, you even can capture a picture of your burning desktop without exiting the screensaver!
Though it may sound particularly exciting, we think this screensaver is worth downloading for the novelty value alone and should be worth buying due to its cool, one-of-a-kind approach. Your friends will say: Oh, your desktop is BURNING! |
