Looking really good, JLC! Beautiful!

(do they look like little sperms swimming up before they blow or is it just me? Sometimes a firework is just a firework...

That's what I want it to stay on, and I hope it works for older computers.
But try hitting the "numpad -" button and you'll get much more!

1.0 Beta 3:
Changed: I did some tweaking here and there to make it look bether
Added: XP skin support for the config window
I guess this will be the last beta?

I don't have dual monitors myself so I can't test it, and I don't have a clue about how I would do that either.
And the resolution, maybe i'll do something about it...

Steady 48 fps with loads varying from 0-5400 particles. Looks really good.

I just testet it on Linux (Ubuntu 6.06

), and it works but it was much slower.
Would anyone be interested in having this screensaver for Linux also?
I guess i'll have to wait until PB 4 for Linux is ready then, it will speed it up!
