Starfish

shnrub · 05-03-2002, 10:42 PM

Hello, I purchased the Aquarium in Februrary and have been running it ever since and just have one question, I dunno if its been discussed before but my starfish has NEVER been on the glass (atleast I've never seen it on there) even though I've ticked the 'allow starfish on glass' box in the settings. Any ideas ? or did I just get a lazy starfish ?

Forget it, I just read through the faq and got the answer, guess I should have done that to start with.
Anyway a truly awesome screen saver, thanks Jim.

One of these days I'll get my independant locking lights.

Always dark blue background, but the front can automagically fade dark long enough for the starfish to scurry up onto the glass.

Yeah I had my background set on that deep dark blue colour too.
Like you said maybe having it so the lights are still on auto, but the background brightness can be set to only go up to a particular level. Sounds like a good idea

That light green background really only looks good on an LCD display. On a CRT, it just looks, well, green.

the deep blue background is the best one
