DVD Screensaver: Bouncing Logo Online

This DVD screensaver is a bouncing logo that glides across the screen and changes color each time it touches an edge, just like the old video player idle screen. A counter keeps track of the bounces and, most exciting of all, the rare corner hits when the logo touches two walls at once. You can type your own text, resize the logo, speed it up or slow it down, pick the background, add a trail and send the animation to full screen for a party screen, a waiting room display or a lazy afternoon. It is a plain shape with your own words, so you can put a name, a message or a club title in it. Everything runs in the browser.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as a corner hit?

A corner hit is when the logo touches a side wall and a top or bottom wall at the same moment, or within a few pixels. The corner counter goes up by one each time.

Why are corner hits so rare?

The logo moves on a diagonal, so it only reaches a corner if the screen width and height line up with its path. With a large screen and odd speeds it can take a long time.

Can I change the text in the logo?

Yes. Type up to 14 characters in the text box and the box resizes around it.

How do I use it as a screensaver?

Press Full screen and leave the page open. Browsers cannot replace the operating system screensaver, but a full screen window works the same way on a TV or monitor.

Does the speed depend on my screen size?

The speed is in pixels per second, so the logo takes longer to cross a big screen. Raise the speed slider to cross it faster.
