Hi there,
I browse the forum often, but there isn't any development in this section. I still use "dim" as a screensaver and "MilkDrop" as visualizer, but I get a little bored.
In some topics I hear people talk about Vortex and other screensavers... isn't there a way to post links to them to download?
Or is there someone who likes to code some other cool savers or visuals?

I don't have any "braindead" build. Just a regular release (9.04), nice and up to date... but I still can find it!

Dude!? I can switch them on... or change them... I don't have "vortex" or any other visualizers (except goom, opengl spectrum, projectm and waveform).... I ask if there are others (visualizers and screensavers), cause I can't find them!

Well there isn't that much research to do... I could not find any info about Vortex. But Vortext wasn't just the one I needed... just looking for more visualizers for my Windows XBMC.
And ProjectM loads Milkdrop presets, so... !?
Anyway... but there isn't any (!) visualizer or screensaver for Windows? Is that what you saying?
