DashSaver v1.2 released – Universal Binary
I recently recompiled and released DashSaver as a Universal Binary. It now will run fine on Intel and PowerPC computers.
Go give it a download. There are still two major feature requests:
- Secure screensaver – when ‘Ask for password on wake’ is turned on, it will hide the dashboard
- Dual Screens – the semi-transparent, colored background under DashSaver won’t show up on the second monitor
You can also catch a great audio review of DashSaver over at the MacReview Cast (mp3, it’s at the beginning, the first reviewed freeware app)
Expect more features coming up soon.

I like the idea of DashSaver, but when I activate it as a screensaver all i see is a great big dashboard icon. Is it loading or something?

DashSaver worked in OS X 10.5 (Leopard), but it does not run in Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6), which seems to require them to be rewritten,

please recode for 10.6 – I used this app all the time, its the only screensaver I’ve ever liked, I would gladly pay for it!

In agreement with all the other 10.6 users–I’d love to see a snow-leopard version of this. Or if I am doing something wrong, I’d love to know how to install this on Snow Leopard.
Cheers.
