RandomExtra is a must have but on my 10.6.6 Mac Pro it simply displays this message: "Something is wrong. I am sad that I cannot pick a module for you - RandomExtra" I am sad that it's not working for me.

Too bad this is no longer being supported. I tried contacting the author a few weeks back but there has not been any response...

Anyone got any good suggestions for an alternative?

The best "random screensaver" tool out there. Simple, reliable and you can't beat the price.

Long live customization! It doesn't add any new screen savers, but it gives you control over the Apple's "random" setting with "priority" gauges on the screen savers you do have. Plus it lets you disable particular effects that are just annoying. My download worked perfectly, and the documentation is thorough. What a bonus that it's free!

I really love this, it is wonderful freeware!
I just have one comment or question. I have reverted back to ver. 2.0 because with it I got 2 different randomly picked screensavers on my dual display G4. I just get the same one twice every time with ver. 2.1. Is this a bug?

Other than that I have nothing but high praise for this program.
