Fish Picker version 4.0.9 is out. Now it can be set as a screensaver! Just follow these steps:

First of course download it here: http://home.wanadoo.nl/sfinx98/progs/picker_ma2.zip

1. Copy picker.exe and all the files that came with it to your system folder. The system folder is usually located in "c:\windows\system" (Windows9x) or "c:\winnt\system32" (Windows NT/2000/XP) or a combination of those.

2. Rename the picker.exe in the system folder to picker.scr

3. Go to Display Properties - Screen Saver. If the previous steps went right you should see "picker" among your other screensavers. Select it and click OK to set as the default saver. Done!

4. Additionally you can select the "Minimize When... Aquarium Launches" in Fish Picker's preferences menu to make the operation look smoother.

Notes:
- Since Fish Picker is not a real screensaver it does not support screensaver password protection!
- When starting Fish Picker as a screensaver it will exit automatically shortly after MA2 exits.
