Explolitation of the Easter Eggs in Vista

  • Article

I wrote earlier about a cool new Vista Easter Egg which allows you to use a command line to supply a parameter to a screen saver so that it uses Vista's new display capabilities to run the screen saver as wallpaper.  Now someone has written an applicaiton to do it!  It sits in the system tray and runs the wallpaper in all its animated glory as the desktop.  For those of you looking for a wallpaper changer, you can easily use this and the Photo Screen Saver instead of a secondary utility.

Info here:

Make any Screensaver as your desktop Wallpaper

and the tool is here:

    This is hardly a Vista Easter Egg. You've been able to do this since Windows 95 (although it's not supported and tends to gunk up the message queues).
