Me too! Aftereffects was my favorite thing.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
I'm looking for a copy of the original Opus and Bill screensaver where they shot down the flying toasters (Before Broderbund sued them and won).
Well, rats. Turns out I don't have that one. I have the sequel to it. [link] And disk 3 is corrupt. And now my floppy drive wants to format any disk I put into it, even the ones that worked not five minutes ago. Bother.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I know that we had that one. I have no idea if I've still got the disks for it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Your machine is obviously infected by ghost toasters. That fly.
So, I installed the flying toasters on my MacBook. It's cool - there's just one disappointment. When I first saw the flying toasters, what really cracked me up was that it had a slider that controlled how toasted each piece of toast was. This version doesn't have that. Oh well.

Sonofagun, I've got the Opus & Bill disks, and they were still readable!
For a limited time only: [link]
I should mention that I haven't tried to install it, so caveat emptor, etc.

Ooh - this is cool. HOW TO - Make A Cylon Jack-O-Lantern
(Old-school Cylon. With glowy eye thing, of course.)

Very cool, Jon. Thanks.

They seem to work in XP. The best way to install it is to unzip everything into the same directory. Extracting the files to individual disk folders only gets the first disk installed and lots of error messages.
I did get an interesting and persistent error message when I first started it up, but it disappeared once I started testing the savers. That may also have been due to interaction with ZoneAlarm.
