Title: Deftones Screen Saver...
Post by: pixElsblUr on Apr 03, 2009, 11:39 PM
Hi all,  I created this screen saver that displays the images that were once hosted at http://deftones.com/, this is the stand alone version, no stream

(http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k189/pixelsblur/DeftonesWebSS.gif)

1. Install "Deftones Web Setup.exe" follow instuctions and allow to install in it's default directory.
2. copy and paste the other two files in the folder to C/Program Files/Deftones Web.
3. right click on your desktop and select "personalization" on vista or "properties"on XP, select defly 1 as your screen saver and click preview, if you need to install flash it will let you know, you may have to run through a 1 time set up, there after, you will not be prompted to click anything, the screen saver will be activated.

hope you all enjoy.   8)

i'm using Vista and I only see the black screen with the legends of Sign Up, Shop, Blogs and deftones... no photo of Frank or else... is there a photo supposed to be there??

yes there is supposed to be a slideshow, sorry man, this works best on XP, it mirrors the index page of deftones.com, I should have tested more prior to upload, however, the screensaver does work flawless on XP, I apologize for any inconvenience to vista users, I will do more research see if I can help more.

ohh yes, now i've seen some pictures.. i think that it's due to my internet connection that the images are taking time to load, because also when i enter the deftones page, no images, until some time elapsed...
and when i am in a place with a better internet connection, the images are showing as they have to be..

so, thanks again fro your work man! well done!

edit_ i was in scool, with a better internet connection and got those images and this:

cool, so it does work on vista, thank you for confirming
Title: Re: Deftones Screen Saver...
Post by: defTHE1s on May 12, 2009, 02:49 PM
and now it doesn't works anymore.. is because they updated deftones page?
is there a way to fix it?
Title: Re: Deftones Screen Saver...
Post by: pixElsblUr on May 12, 2009, 03:31 PM
Ill look in to this, you know how the dialog box pops up? hit enter until it goes away and the site will display, I know thats no way to use a screen saver so ill see if I can come up with a solution.  I was actually going to record the previous site with the sideshow pictures and create a stand alone screen saver but they beat me to it, they had already posted the new site.
Title: Re: Deftones Screen Saver...
Post by: defTHE1s on May 13, 2009, 12:52 AM
Yes, it's a dialog of Internet Explorer Script Error... and yes, I've pressed Enter until i got the official page...
I'll be waiting, patiently (jaja) for a solution if you can... cuz i also wanted to save/keep all the images and the day i was about to do it... bam!! the page had gone!!  :-[ :'(
thanks then!

Title: Re: Deftones Screen Saver...
Post by: pixElsblUr on May 19, 2009, 06:18 PM
Screen savers were originally intended to help avoid burning of images on to your monitor from displaying for prolonged period of time, plus in my opinion they some look pretty pimp

yes i know why they exist in the first place,but they start and go on when and because you are not there so it doesnt matter if they look pimp or not. i mean u dont sit infront of the computer and look at it? i could have a screen saver with rock n frost sucking his own dick, i really wouldnt mind who cares cause yr somewhere else when it shows anyway
