I
have always been fascinated by kaleidoscopes. When I was a child,
ignorant of the wonders of optics, eyes glued to these devices,
I wondered how it was possible to fit such a large space so full
of colors in a so small tube.
Even now, I can
not resist the temptation to try a kaleidoscope whenever I find
one on my way. (And frankly, I've never seen anyone capable of such
a feat...)
That's
why I put together this little program. It seems to me that a nice
Kaleidoscope would be perfect as a screen saver: it is full of pretty
colors constantly changing, very relaxing, and it shows to your
friends what exquisite tastes are yours...
In short: just
test it, you will judge by yourself. Here are the specifications:
- Don't require a powerful graphic card ->
it works perfectly with a bureautic GPU;
- Several quality levels to adapt to the less
powerful PC;
- Shapes and colors randomly generated for always
renewed results;
- Simple installation and uninstallation (there's
an integrated install program);
