     Slideshow screensavers, however many images they may display, are quite predictable and therefore boring. A virtual kaleidoscope on your desktop is quite the opposite thing. Today we shall have a closer look at Brewster Kaleidoscopic Screensaver.
     Brewster Kaleidoscopic Screensaver is a versatile tool which shows kaleidoscopic patterns on your desktop. This compact program is not just a screensaver: it is an application where you can create and experiment with different patterns and effects, save your work and set it to display when the screensaver is running. The program features dozens of pre-defined patterns, every single one of which is so variable that it could easily pass for a separate screensaver. You can adjust the screensaver's settings so that it shows a pattern you particularly like or all the patterns in random order. You can change the overall look of the virtual kaleidoscope (oval, circle etc.), level of animation, set a midi sound library to be played along with the screensaver etc.
     The program has a well-designed interface: all imaginable controls and settings are neatly organized in one window, which also contains a preview window where you can see the final result. This screensaver runs smoothly even on older machines, something like Pentium 90 MHz will do. Try this great screensaver now and enjoy its kaleidoscopic variety.
