Blobber Screensaver        
 Remco de Korte - 2001/2002
 
version 1.2
 
Short Info
----------
 
Blobber fills your screen with colourful
droplets, clogging together as they move.
 
Blobber was tested on Win98 and WinXP.
 
Blobber.exe will install the saver
to a directory of your choice. Run this
program again to uninstall the screensaver.
 
 
Options
-------
 
Image Size
  the screensaver calculates an image that 
  is tiled on the screen (seamless). You 
  can adjust the size of the tiled image.
 
Number of elements
  You can have up to 128 'blobs' moving 
  over the image. 
 
Size of elements
  The size of each element can vary from 
  16 to 128. 
 
Colours
  You can choose the amount of colours 
  to be displayed, with a maximum of 8.
  You can also change the colours in 
  this small palette to get weird and
  colourfull effects, contrasts or a 
  smooth transition.
  The 'soft' option will make the saver
  use a 256 colour palette calculated
  from the 8 colour minipalette and
  add a slight 3D-ish look.
 
Presets
  There are 15 sets of parameters to
  demonstrate the different settings.
  They can serve as a basis for your
  own experiments. 
  You can add your own settings to the 
  kist of presets. 
 
Note:
  A high number of large blobs on a 
  small image will crowd the image up 
  to a point where everything gets
  invisible.
  Also the number and size of the blobs
  can affect the speed of the screensaver.
