About

Background Blitz Collection Screensaver.
Containing 263 background blitzes entries from 2003 - 2010.

I always follow the "Background Blitz" forum thread and I'm always amazed by the fantastic entries. So I made this screensaver in order to immortalize their great work :-)

Options:
-Set Background Blitz info on:
"Theme", "Date" & "Background Blitz by" are shown. Slider duration is automatically set to 5 seconds and can't be changed.
-Set Background Blitz info off:
No info is shown, you are able to set the slide duration [1 to 8 seconds].

[ESC] quits the screensaver but due to wait functions this can be a little difficult.
So if [ESC] fails just use [ALT][X]. />
Thanx for hosting DUAL ;-)

19 Juli 2010: v1.2:

This screensaver is a great way to peruse the talent shown by the AGS community. Be warned, you end up looking at the stunning pictures instead of doing what you were supposed to.
