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:

  • Change the code so StarfishX will generate a truly full-screen pattern on the main monitor.

New in 1.4b1:
  • option to automatically check for a newer version of StarfishX when StarfishX launches.
  • Added a "Run at reduced priority" option on the Advanced tab. This is on by default and will give other processes on your system more time relative to StarfishX (so it doesn't bring your machine to a grinding halt). This will have virtually no effect on pattern generation times on an otherwise idle system.
  • Fixed a bug which could cause StarfishX to be confused about the size of your monitor(s).

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

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.1 or higher

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?
