TOMIS The reason for the absurd file size is due to absurdly bad design. The program stores all these "quotes" as hi-res JPEG files! The screen saver is made with iScreensaver, which if I remember correctly, makes it easy to package up quicktime movies/images into a shareware screen saver. 1. Use someone else's quotes. 2. Make hi-res images of the text of these quotes. 3. Use someone else's software to package these images into a screen saver. My suggestion; go back to the drawing board with this one. Learn to use Xcode, look at apple's screen saver examples, and program it properly. A basic text-on-background screen saver like this should be a matter of a few hundred kb at most. Heck, you could probably accomplish the same thing using Quartz Composer (included in the apple developer tools), not have to write a single line of code, and still have a small file size!
