[SOLVED] Want screensaver running on desktop background

redmercury · 03-24-2008, 06:04 AM

Hello Guys
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to have a screensaver running on the desktop background.
A friend has been kind enough to give me a link to a Rolex (flash built) screensaver, which I've installed. Here's the link: removed direct link to unverified exe
The clock gives the time in real time.
But now I want to make two changes if possible.
First, the clock's background is white, does anybody know of any free software which can 'capture' the screensaver and make the background transparent.
Second, is it then just a matter of putting the 'rolex.scr' file into the Display Background file?
I want the end result to look like the image below. Obviously the clock still has to work.
