After months of anticipation, Microsoft finally released Windows DreamScene to users of Windows Vista Ultimate as part of the “Ultimate Extras.” DreamScene allows users to have animated wallpapers on their desktop. In conjunction with Stardock, several new, and very cool animated wallpapers were also made available.

“As most of you already know, Windows DreamScene transforms your desktop from a static wallpaper image into a full-motion video. In conjunction with Stardock, we’re pleased to also offer a number of cool, new animated DreamScene desktops, including “Aurora”. Additionally, you can use your own videos as DreamScene desktops or visit Stardock’s Dream.WinCustomize.com website to download Stardock’s DeskScapes (an add-on to DreamScene) as well as a collection of fabulous content created by Stardock and members of the Ultimate community.”

Vista Ultimate users can download the update through Windows Update. Once you have it installed, head over to Dream.WinCustomize.Com and download DeskScapes, which is an enhancement to DreamScene that offers additional features such as dynamic content.
