I picked up one of the new unibody aluminum MacBooks a week ago, and I’m enjoying every bit of it!

Wallsaver featured in Mac100% magazine

General, News, Software, Wallsaver No Comments »

Wallsaver has been featured in Mac100%, a Japanese-language Mac magazine. I was contacted a short while ago by a Mac100% editor asking for permission to feature Wallsaver in a “software DVD” attached to the Spring issue of their magazine. Since any publicity for Wallsaver is good publicity, I granted the editor permission, and in return was sent a copy of the magazine.

Here’s the blurb, hopefully somebody can translate it for me. (Here’s to hoping it was a good review.)

Wallsaver on Mac100% Magazine

While googling Wallsaver, I found that Apple’s downloads site lists Wallsaver as a “staff pick” (about half way down on this page) and is the 7th most popular download on this page.

Wallsaver 2.0 is here!

I wrote yesterday that Wallsaver was coming along nicely and that it would be released within one week.

I lied.

Wallsaver 2.0 has officially been released. Here’s a copy & paste of the change log from the Wallsaver product page:

  • New feature: Choose screen saver to run as the desktop wallpaper.
    • You may now choose any screen saver in the “/System/Library/Screen Savers”, “/Library/Screen Savers/” or “~/Library/Screen Savers” folders.
  • New feature: New application icon.
    • The new icon properly scales up to 512×512 pixels and depicts a screen saver that is Wallsaver compatible.
  • Fixed several “Could not determine hidden status” errors.
  • Fixed several “Could not start screen saver.” errors.
  • Moved some preference options around.
  • The screen shot below pretty much sums up the biggest feature of the 2.0 release.

    So head on over to Wallsaver’s product page and download a copy. If you’re an existing user (you == win) you can update to Wallsaver 2.0 via the built in update utility.
