Stardock DeskScapes is an enhancement to Windows DreamScene. It extends Windows DreamScene to support dynamic, animated wallpaper as their desktop background without slowing down the computer or interfering with how you work with your computer.

DeskScapes also supports the new .Dream format. By default, Windows DreamScene supports MPEG and WMV videos as their content. The .Dream format supports adding triggers, author info, and dynamic content. Now users know if a given file has been designed to be an animated wallpaper -- if it uses the .Dream format, it's an animated wallpaper.

    NOT FREE - as soon as you install it, it states you must upgrade to the pay version to get more deskscapes. I removed it, deleted the folder, and reinstalled the previous version (which had no such limitations) and now I also have the new deskscapes also.

    Very nice program, does not seem to use much power at all, and works great.

    just a quick note. this does not require vista ultimate. it has been made for any version of vista, try reading there information on there web page. any version of windows vista whether you have dreamscene or not. besides you want dreamscene, can get the hacked version from a simple search on google that can be used on any version of vista. gave it a 5. it runs very nicely.
