Marine Aquarium 3 Comments & Appreciation - Page 37

I have 3 things I would really like to suggest / hope for, but first a big THANK YOU for making a new one for snow leopard.
1) The main, most prominent piece of coral, is really unappealing to me. It's jagged and harsh and doesn't really suit "serene" at all. The last one had some great coral pieces. Is there a way to bring those back, or is there going to be a way to edit that out? If I could stop the pan action at a spot of my choosing then I could set one monitor to one side of it and the other to the other side so it's not visible.
2) The lighting adjustments are not an option. I am assuming that this is being worked on and just not ready yet. If not please add mine to the side of please do! The lighting set up gave it a dynamic depth that this does not have yet and really a large part of what gave it it's realistic quality and attractiveness.
3) Add one more to the let the starfish climb the walls tally! He had so much personality and I miss him/

I'm very glad about the new things coming that have been mentioned. I really missed this on my computer!

While V 3 is a "beta", it appears to be a very stable beta and, for the majority of us, it works quite well and impresses others when they see it. Sure, it will be nice as the planned improvements unfold, but for the present it is very functional and somewhat serene or calming, as an aquarium should be, in my opinion.

Every month myself and another person conduct a one hour long "Q & A" session with our local PC User's Group, and I've been running MA 3 on the "big screen" - projected from my notebook PC on what I would guess is a screen at least 15 x 15 feet in size (or larger, since I've not actually measured it) - for the last 2 months as my screen saver.

I'm getting a lot of "ohs" and "ahs" and "I want thats", so I can say without reservation that this screen saver is a winner. I feel certain that many of the members have taken the time to also install and enjoy it.

Of course, I recommend that they buy it to get the additional fish and eliminate the need to type "testfish", so maybe some have.

To all who are working on this, and especially Jim Sachs, keep up the good work, your efforts are appreciated.

cjmaddy · 11-13-2009, 03:47 PM

But who was the right fielder?

bullfrog · 11-13-2009, 04:29 PM

That's a good question, I don't beleive that his name was ever mentioned.

"Naturally"

[Or, in the board game, the right fielder's name is "Nobody"]

Jim... please, I beg of you... give us a sample fish to dissect soon

Jim Sachs · 11-14-2009, 12:01 AM

How gruesome - I think you've mis-read the whole SereneScreen thing

Anyway, real life has interfered with working on the Aquarium for a couple of days. My family is out of the country, and I'm remodeling the computer room. I got a pair of oak computer desks for $10 each at a garage sale last weekend. I'm hoping to get everything organized when I put it all back together. Should be a welcome change from the foot-high stack of papers I've been accumulating for the last few years.
