Product Description:

Starfish X is a Mac OS X-native application which generates cool desktop patterns. It is based on Mars Saxman's original Mac OS 9 implementation of Starfish.

What's new in this version:

  • Added timer options to automatically generate new patters after specified time period. (Provided you leave the program running.)
  • Added dock menu with option to start/stop pattern generation.
  • The position and size of the main window are now remembered between launches.
  • When the main window is minimized, the dock icon for the window shows the current progress of the image being generated (or the last complete image generated).
  • Added option to minimize the main window at startup.
  • Added popup menu to control how the pattern is installed on your monitor (using the same options available in the Desktop preference pane). The default it "Tile".
  • Added a numeric prefix to the display names in the "For:" monitor popup. This should restore secondary monitor(s) to the menu when there were matching names (such as "Apple Studio Display").

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.3
  • Mac OS X 10.2
  • Mac OS X 10.1

is not as big a fan of Starfish as I am. "You need to restart your computer..." :o( It worked just long enough for me to decide I like 159422652. Is there a website for sharing favourite seeds?
