Marine 2.0.6 as an Active Desktop

03-20-2005, 06:44 AM

Hi everyone!

I just purchased Marine Aquarium 2.0.6 today for my G4 Powerbook. I must say it looks great as a screen saver, but I can't get it to work properly as an active desktop. According to Joe Kissell in "50 fast Max OS X Techniques" this is possible with the full version, but not the free demo. Is this correct, and if so what I am doing wrong?

Any pearls of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Walt

John Blommers always tests to make sure that I don't break that functionality when I do a new build, so I'm pretty sure it works, though I don't use it myself. I think that there is a thread on it here or in the Goldfish area. (sounds of rummaging through the forums...) Ah, here it is: http://feldoncentral.com/forums/show...ight=backlight

Thanks Jim! I downloaded XBack and it works like a champ. I appreciate all of your assistance.
