does anyone know where or how i can get the time machine theme in space on my wallpaper as a background. I would like for it to move like the stars and stuff does anyone know where i can find the gif image or anything like that thanks
 
Haha, I'm pretty sure it isn't a gif image. Most likely some type of Quartz? I'm no programmer at all so I have no idea. If you manage to find a screensaver that looks like it i know you can use something like Wallsaver to make it your background. If all else fails just take a screenshot of it.

convert it. and why do you want only the gif format? jpeg is more widely accepted i think.. but sorry, i've search atleast 10 different sites, all jpeg and/or png. no gifs.

If you'd actually read the original post, he wants the animated version, which isn't possible with jpeg files.
 
well sorry, i didn't read carefully. and your wrong, ever heard of animate jpegs? you're info is last century. but to the OP, I don't think the wallpaper can be animated... it might, im not sure.
 
i just did it its pretty cool here it is
(except on my comp its moving)

keep in mind thought that a moving desktop will take up a lot of cpu so i wouldnt use it unless you have a good comp with lots of RAM
 
what wont? to do it download the screen saver, and drag the quartz file into HD>Library>Screen Savers. Open System preferences and set it as your screen saver. Download and open Wallsaver. By default it sets the current screen saver as your Desktop, which should be the time machine quartz file. After this you can go into system preferences and change your screen saver back to what it originally was but the time machine quartz file should remain as your desktop.
