Nile Cruise

We have created a Nile Cruise Screensaver** which you are free to download and use on your pc.

To download the Free Nile Cruise Screensaver from this page you should double left-click HERE and a dialogue box will open asking if you wish to “run or save this file?”.

You should click “Run” and then a further dialogue box will open asking “Are you sure you want to run the software?”. Again, click “Run” and you will then be asked if you “want to install Nile Cruise“.

Click “Yes” and a short introduction describing the screensaver will appear. Once you have read it close the message down by clicking the “X” in the top right-hand corner of the message and the screensaver will install automatically.

To adjust the length of time before the screensaver appears simply go to your “Control Panel“, choose “Display” then “Screensavers” and you will be able to shorten or lengthen the time before the screensaver appears.

We hope you enjoy using Nile Cruise Screensaver and please feel free to pass it onto friends and family.

**A screen saver is an animated image that is activated on a personal computer display when no user activity has been sensed for a certain time. The original purpose of a screen saver was to prevent burn-in (the burning of an image into the phosphor inside the cathode ray tube after hours of the same image being displayed). In fact, today’s CRT/LCD display technology makes burn-in unlikely except under extreme conditions. The prefect screensaver is the black screen… a bit boring, huh? Many people get screen savers so that something interesting is on the screen when they make a pause. Screensavers are also a good way to promote a company or a product.

Windows® comes with built-in screen savers that you can select. If you purchase your computer with the operating system already installed, a screen saver may have been selected for you. Also, many screensavers can be downloaded from specific sites (search “free screensaver” from Google).

A good screensaver must have the following characteristics:

A dark background or scene - This is to save power consumed by the display.

Moving objects or scene - This is to avoid pixel burning. Fixed objects must be dark.

Slow motion - The scene must be appeasing.

Silent - If you add sounds, use low-level ones and/or cool music.

Sensitive - It must stop on any user action (mouse move, click, keyboard hit…).
