It's about those ads.

#1 Unread post by blues2cruise »

Sometimes I get a little tired of being offered screensavers. Especially these kind http://cdn5.tribalfusion.com/media/4499 ... 98x394.gif

Why aren't there any screen savers that would appeal to my gender? Or am I supposed to like only little kitty cats?

Those ladies aren't even that good looking. The one on the right looks like a man...


As for the gender thing. I dunno.

Try going to DeviantArt.com and choosing 'men' under the categories drop down.

Which is why I love it. I get all my wallpapers there. If you dig enough you can find some awesome abstract and minimalistic wall papers/screen savers.

But most of them are the same effects repeated over and over in photoshop. Just with different rotation angles and colors.

Most of those screensavers are just spyware.

It's best to practice restraint and think if you really really want it before clicking on those screensaver types of ads.

CNF2002 said it well... Most of those screensavers are just spyware.

BTW, TMW is anti-spyware. :mrgreen:

I never download anything. Period. Oh, wait, yes I have. I purchased my Norton via an internet installation. And I save a few pictures.

I like the screensaver that came with this Sony system anyway.
