I created the Rain screensaver as a tool to learn about windows screen interaction in the Windows environment. It ended up being pretty neat in its own right, so I decided to release it.
Configuration
The Intensity field determines how fast the rain falls (also known as how
fast updates occur to the screen). Valid values are 1-1000. 50 is a good
value to start with. 1000 is good to get a quick look at the preview
without waiting for minutes at a time.
The entire thing can start over frequently if desired.
Screen Capture!
As an added bonus, if you click the right mouse button while the screen
saver is active, a copy of the current screen will be copied to the
clipboard. You can then load up MS Paint (included with the operating
system), and paste the image into Paint.
If you drag a copy of rain.scr to your desktop, you can just click it to
activate the screen saver. Then do a quick right-mouse button. This is a
great way to do quick & dirty screen captures.
