Owl Screensaver41.0

Owls have lived throughout the time in peace and have been picked to represent wisdom, intelligence, and in some other cultures, as wealth or mysticism.

A modest collection of amazing owls

If you like owls and want them to decorate your monitor, a simple choice is Owl Screensaver. It order to make the screensaver work properly, the setup needs to be run in Administrator mode. The process can be a frustrating, when it comes to opening and testing it.

Poorly optimized start function

As there is no icon displayed on the desktop nor the taskbar, the only choice to run the screensaver is through the Windows Screensaver window. To view how the slideshow looks like, you have to press the "Preview" button. If you want to tweak a few visual options, you can access the settings pane.

Approachable interface

It's wrapped in an outdated and clean layout, which comes with two distinct tabs, the settings and effects. There is no option to add new items to the slideshow, which limits the ability to customize the screensaver. In addition, there is no choice to view the compilation besides the preview method. The properties tab comes structured in visual and audio sections.

Pick what effects should be used and mute the sound

The visual area lets you select the transition pause between each photo, the position (fit stretch) and choose the display captions location on the monitor (e.g. top, middle, left). Sadly, there is no option to write your own text. The provided music may not work on all computers.Images can be shuffled in a random order, while the transition speed set to a specific parameter. The tool lets you select the background color, as well as choose the desired transition effects. The music can be muted, as well as shuffled, and cycled only once.

All in all 

To sum it up, Owl Screensaver is a large collage of cute owls, whose main purpose is to decorate your desktop, while bringing a calm mood. The lack of other useful functions, such as a clock, calendar, resolution, and preview mode, leaves much to be desired.
