    if you can get an .avi or .mpg format of that, you can just add it to the dreamscene folder and go from there.

    edit. nevermind, I don't see how that is going to work either.

    lol, I saw this screensaver about a month ago and asked the same question on here!!

    Didn't have any luck though...

    Would be interesting to see if anyone can find a way?

    One would imagine that it is possible, with dreamscene and all that?

    That worked, but disabled all of my icons and made my cursor a permanent hour-glass (clock-thing in Vista).

    I found another little app to set a webpage as a background, but it wouldn't set the link to the clock :(

    Unlessss I could host the .swf file as a .html file, is that possible?

    you should be able to host an swf file in a html file with ease (which is, uhm, what they actually do on the webpage? :)).

    I'm developing a similar clock now based on my needs. It's a HalfClock, see Attachement.
