Trad Gang Screen Saver

Killdeer · March 24, 2009, 09:28:00 PM

Dummy question, here.
I have a TG screensaver on my old PC. I bought anew Mac. Can I kidnap that screensaver and install it on the Mac? I can't find an album file or anything over in the old machine, and there are a lot of places where it might be hiding.

Rob, where is that pesky thing? I think it is hiding behind the refrigerator.

OK, is there a trick? I am not running Fusion or Boot Camp.

If I could download the pics, then I could save them as an album and use that as the screensaver.
If not, thanks for trying, Rob.

umm, what's the problem? not running with a microsoft os?

once the 4.7meg file downloads, just click it and you will see the screensaver images and if you click the 'ok' button it was install if for ya as yer pc's screensaver of choice.

OK here's a different question--there is a picture of a bow leaning against a cactus--can you tell me who made it? Beautiful!

I am using a Mac. All I see is MIME text...I think.

Is that cactus red? That was no cactus, that was Rsuty.

I downloaded it onto my old computer. It is different!
I wanted the old one, (the one with MY pic of the stone pointed arrow). Is there any way to capture the images from a screensaver?

That is a nice bow, a two-piece with bowbolt, cocobolo and bacote.

that would be 'faith', the trad gang 'pass around' bow (along with her sister 'hope') as created by black mountain bows.

an older tg screensaver? can't find one. gimme more info on yer pic and i'll try to scout it up - our image file archives are *HUGE*, i'm talking about 8 gigs worth.

Killdeer · April 08, 2009, 09:53:00 AM

Heehee...I think 8 gigs is what one of my camera's memory cards holds...

The screensaver is registered to you, and copyrighted 2003. It was built with Screen Saver Builder, a program for PCs that is now retired.

If I could capture the images somehow, I could save them to my external HD, and create an album on the Mac that I could use as a screensaver. But, alas, I can find no album of images on my old PC, and when I go into "change/remove programs", the only option offered is to remove it. When I go into Program Files, it does not appear.

I am so bummed.
