A Crisp Christmas Screensaver 2
Crisp Christmas is a classic christmas screen saver for Mac OS X users. Awarded Cream of the Software Crop by Downlaod.com and the #1 saver download from Apple.com for 6 weeks in 2004, this is a newer version for 2005 with much much more classic christmas content.
From the designer (responding to the some email requests) These images and animations are not meant to be primarily religious or to offend other sensibilities (than Christianity) who also celebrate Christmas - it's based simply on my memories of Christmas as a kid - purely image based considering I grew up in Australia and Christmas was all high summer and surf; I suggest the work be taken in the spirit it was created. Thanks.
Free trial download (5.3MB zipped). Fully functional for 4 days. Installation instructions included in the ReadMe file.
BUY for US $7 (use BUY buttons below left) and get 46 classic xmas icons for free (new window opens).
ANIMATION & EFFECTS: by Jeremy Blomley and Ron Tocknell.
MUSIC: Choir of the English Concert performing 'In Excelsis' by Antonio Vivaldi.
Choir website: http://www.englishconcert.co.uk
SUITABLE screen sizes from standard 1028 to 1440 to powerbook widescreen 1440 x 900. Will work on larger screens though they've not been tested for placement on such (i.e. extraneous elements may or may not occur).

• Many more scenes have been added.
