The large room with blue roof can be a frightening place. Free screen savers YoWindow 2.0 shows how it is absent from the comfort of your cubicle or mancave.
YoWindow is a combination screensaver and weather reporting tool. By default, presents a picture of a simple farmhouse in a field, just as in the previous version.
The weather conditions are at the top of it, so rain will thunder down, trees will blow in the wind and snow flakes will drift down, depending on the circumstances. Sunrise and sunset occur at the schedule, based on the location you entered. The Moon is in the correct phase and position on the sky. A grazing horse can walk onto the screen, and the cloud (if called for forecast) sail across the stage.
The YoWindow unlimited version offers two more such "animated" screenscapes, an airport and a tropical beach, with more promised.
In addition to stocks slide and can be any slide with a sky component used. Users have contributed dozens of such images, all ready for use with YoWindow. I liked a called Cabrera, a ruined castle on a rocky hill, others include cityscapes of New York or Hong Kong s.a.r., or various outdoor locations.
When one of these pictures is selected, the same sky effects arise, pigmentation, lighting, storms and so on, but there is apparently no animation. I found I liked static image and weather effects better compared to the animated screens. Flavor can of course vary.
YoWindow, you can select multiple locations, so you can check the weather in many places. This is where I found some problems, the standard "add location" menu item was not working for me (Repkasoft examines the error), and with the help of dialog "manage sites", while it worked and I have been able to add a variety of locations, from Anchorage to Tokyo, had some odd shortly with articles sometimes duplicate.
You can slide Yowindow's timer and back to see previous weather or look ahead on calculated conditions (3 days in the free version, 6 to 9 days unlimited), and select your own local weather service provider if you don't like the default. YoWindow retrieves current weather from METAR, a network of weather stations located mainly at airports, and uses National Weather Service forecasts.
