Good idea! I can champion/be an evangelist for the concept if you like.

Translation: I have no clue how to do this, but will set myself up as
the leader for the project and interfere as much as possible to prove my
worth.

hello !
I for one would love to see that become a reallity, most screen savers are not that appealing, at least the free ones are'nt, this one would be worth paying for.

I have uploaded in the files section a zip file called 'plasma.zip'
It has a plasma screensaver similar to the plasma screen in Starker's office.

Unzip and test, therer is also a configuration option.

Cool.  Thanks!  Will have to check it out. 
 
By the way, am I the only one that can't seem to discern any logical order as to how the files in the file section are listed?  Drives me nuts sometimes, lol.

Yeah, my bad.  I noticed it after posting.  I finally realized that it's folders first, in alphabetical order, then single files, in alphabetical order.  Some of us are a little slower than the rest, lol.
