This was one of my favourite screensavers, and I paid the $2 for it.

However, the current version dates from 2003 and is PowerPC only. It can't be used on Intel Macs, which is very frustrating.

Although the developer's site is still online, the email address given there no longer works (emails sent to it just bounce). Please, developer, update this excellent saver for Intel Macs! This is all the more important because you asked money for this saver. Users of freeware that doesn't get updated haven't that much cause for complaint, but screensavers are rather trivial things to be asked to pay for in any case, so to take money and then fail to produce essential compatibility updates seems a little naughty. (OK, the registration fee for this one was extremely small, but even so, it's the principle that counts.)

I love this screen saver. Been a registered user for years. It just works and it looks great.

My only question is: "Will we ever get an expanded ballz set?"

Thanks for making good software.

Very nice. Very nice.

Would be neat if the screenSaver would also display monochrome versions of a User's Pictures folder using ballz, too. That would probably be worth $10 :)

Also, just for fun, because there is a set of ballz that uses transparency (so I can use xBack and *not* completely cover up my desktop picture...*very* cool), it would be neat if there were a way to set the position of the clock on the screen.

Way better than any K clock Widget, that's for sure....
