i dont use a screen saver, i just have the moniter turn off after a while

I just turn my moniter off when I leave the room.  I used to have a screensaver.  But when ever I played with a gamepad, the screensaver would come up and I would die.... 

EDIT:But I want to get one of the ipod ads as my screensaver

  Sounds pretty cool, but I will stick with trying to get the ipod ad screensaver

and ill stick to the stand by mode.....much easier, i dont really find the use of a screen saver, i mean, it had uses earlier..when the pixels tended to burn off if left on too looong, but things have changed!

I don't use a screensaver it annoys me too much, I just make my monitor turn off after 10 minutes

i use a screensaver so it looks like a fish tank rather than a black square whilst im watching tv

Electric Sheep

Downloads mathematical questions provided by different computers (users using the screen saver) to create the image.

Pretty cool tho.

I have the default windows xp screensaver .
