Screensavers; Where to find them?

[Elizara]

Thought I'd start this b/c well, I'm sure we all look for them now and then. On XP I always used the Starfield screensaver, but since I did a clean install of Windows 7 64, I no longer have that screensaver. (unless there's a way to copy that from the old XP cd..)

I found a cool dolphin screensaver here (be careful when installing since you can get crap you don't want), and I know Giveaway of the Day sometimes has screensavers..Anyone else know of good places to get screensavers? If I could find a updated version of XP's Starfield that works and can be installed, I'd be in heaven...

There's quite a few options.
I think Lightspeed-1 is similar for a bit.

Thanks! oh and if anyone has a good list of places you can get'em without getting something..mm..nasty with your pretty screensaver, I don't think a list will be untoward. I'm proly not the only XP to 7 switcher who goes "MEH!" at the selection of screensavers 7 has with it. ^^

I use screensavers from http://www.reallyslick.com/

They look pretty awesome. The only thing to note is that they do use 3D acceleration so if you have an old/low spec machine then they're probably not for you.

Actually I no longer have a old/low spec machine, that's why I installed Windows 7 64. (Speccy readout here.). My old machine is going to become a Linux box sooner or later. Ten; the hyperspace one from ReallySlick hit the jackpot, I'm keeping the dolphin one i found though. (That is also a 3D one, so if you got a old machine, don't even try to install those.)

Electric Sheep is pretty mesmerizing. It's slightly more work than usual screensavers, but way cooler!
