The Earth Screensaver software showcases a beautifully designed render of the earth with animated transitions between its different phases. It's a customizable application with options for adjusting color, size, and starting phase.
As shareware, Earth Screensaver can be used for free for 30 days, during which an Unregistered message may occasionally appear on the screen. Upon registration, however, users will receive a key that unlocks the full version of the software. Registering also results in unlimited free upgrades and technical support from KyoSoft for this screensaver, which costs $19.99 to register.
The customisable options for Earth Screensaver include the ability to apply a colour filter, with the currently selected filter colour displayed in a rectangle below the slider controls. Users can change this colour by adjusting the slider controls for red, green, and blue components, with pastel colours generally recommended. The software also allows users to adjust shadow brightness, with values ranging from 0 (darkest) to 100 (brightest) and adjustable through slider controls or arrow keys.
Additional options for Earth Screensaver include the ability to show the current phase of the Earth, and to randomize the starting phase of the screensaver each time it is initialised (though the randomization option will not be available if Show current phase is selected). Overall, Earth Screensaver is an attractive and versatile screensaver that is well worth its cost of registration.
