Buggy software. No matter the installation path you choose, it will leave the programs 'uninstaller' in the default folder which happens to be in newly created sub-folder named 'programs' seen in the users root folder. The installer should use standard installation locations and not create on-the-fly locations.

Configuring the software is pleasant, with many layout options and settings that tweaks the position of the wallpaper and various forms of calendar styles and placements. When the Options screen is shown, the program's layout for the wallpaper, calendar, and notes are in the correct placement and move/change in real-time.

One feature I would like to see, is if I were to double-click a layout a mini-window would be shown so I can further tweak the final location and/or size of the overlay objects.

Now for the bug: Once you exit Options after setting it up, the wallpaper shifts position (on all 3 of my monitors), carrying with it 'images 'of the programs icons while those program icons and calendar itself is invisible but accessible. The same is true even after exiting the program from the Notification Tray and starting it up again... items are invisible. Refreshing the wallpaper has no effect.

Once my mouse cursor turns to a 'hand' over the invisible wallpaper area where the calendar date is suppose to be at, I click it and do see the popup window so I can configure notes for that particular date on the calendar.

Unfortunately today's GOTD is broken for me, on my Windows 10 Pro x64 Build 10586 system.

Thanks GOTD and Art Plus Inc. This software is unique and has potential, but these issues could be related to my multi-monitor system or particular 'stable' build of Win10, for which this software is suppose to support.

Uninstalled for now, but looking forward to a version that works down the line.

Mothman, It's not a screensaver. It's a calendar.

Screensavers activate after some time of inactivity. This program is always on and you can add notes to it for reminder, or simply enjoy some images.

It's not for everyone, granted!

But it's not a kids stuff either.

Thanks, but no thanks. This was nothing like what I expected. I ended up with so much 'rubbish' on my screen that I couldn't recognise my icons any more. Sure there was probably a nice picture of an aquarium somewhere (I could see little bits of it between a page of text I couldn't read and what little I could recognise of my desktop. Even after uninstalling the program which was reported as being fully completed, the rubbish on my screen remained. Had to re-setup the entire desktop. Not impressed.

Installed on 64-bit Windows 8.1 system. Installation and automatic activation was straightforward, with no surprises. The license agreement gives an address and website for the company, located in Croatia. The website is in perfect English, is up to date and has a contact form.

I was unable to get the program to run except when starting it in my sandbox. Task Manager lists it as a 32-bit application. Once open in the sandbox, the program seems well designed. There are 12 pictures included, which can be previewed . The images become your desktop wallpaper and can be set to change at intervals from monthly to as frequently as every five minutes. A calendar is placed on your desktop, with 48 options for the layout design. There are many options for customizing the display. Notes are easy to add to the calendar. No holidays are included by default (each nation has their own, after all) but there is an easy to use option to add holidays yourself. There is a slideshow option. The program has an option to add your own images.

All in all, this seems like a useful program for those who are busy enough to want a calendar at the ready. I was unable to get it to run normally on my system. Uninstalled.

I am going to rate this at 47, mainly for the office. We liked how the tambourine came in nice and loud but it faded a little faster than we like. The beat is good, and easy to dance to. just a little to slow and I could hardly hear the base guitar. I would buy it.

the truth train, It looks like you're commenting under the wrong offer! No beats here :)
