This Cosmos .dream was made to go with the Cosmos MyColors suite, but it’s a fine .dream all by itself.  It’s very subtle, so this is perfect for people who don’t like a lot of movement on the desktop.  For Vista Ultimate users with DeskScapes, or all Vista users with the full beta from Object Desktop.

A new month has started, so that means it’s time as usual for me to create a video featuring some of the best .dreams (animated wallpapers) that were submitted throughout the past month.You need to have Windows Vista and Stardock DeskScapes (free) installed to use these. You can find links to all the featured videos here.

For almost the past year, animated wallpapers on Vista have been exclusive for Vista Ultimate owners.  Stardock DeskScapes was released soon after which brought some amazing enhancements including dynamic and triggered wallpapers, the new .dream format, and more.

The first beta of DeskScapes 2.0 has arrived for Object Desktop users.  DeskScapes 2.0 will run on any version of Vista that is Aero capable.  Object Desktop subscribers will also get access to four exclusive dynamic .dreams.
