MovingPhotos3D Release History

Fine tuned zooming behavior.
Default to running a bit faster for new users.
Replace images with new ones a bit less frequently.
Cube and sphere now run at normal speed, not twice as slow as the other shapes.
Added a brief hold after each shape is constructed, to allow time to appreciate it.
Partially fixed the bugs that cause pieces of the previous shape to hang around after the next shape is constructed.
Adjust sphere to prevent photos from crowding each other near the top and bottom.
More internal changes to support iPhone version.
Misc. internal improvements.

Internationalization, Spanish localization, Japanese localization.
Fixed tendency to pan left, showing the action more in the right part of the screen.
Fixed bugs that made the zoom-out for the large sphere and text shapes non-optimal for some screen sizes.
Internal changes to support a possible future iPhone version.

Use iTunes Artwork button, available if you have your iTunes library in the regular place. This is an experimental feature; let me know how it goes. Hopefully it will work reliably. Note that all iTunes artwork is included, not only music album covers. For example, iPhone app icons show up too. I don't currently know how to avoid including everything.
Use iPhoto Library button, available if you have your iPhoto library in the regular place.
New shape: your photos can now form letters and words! You can enter whatever text you want in the Adjust tab. Use commas to separate multiple possibilities.

Users can now drag the license download link directly to the box on the Options page; no need to download the license file.
Rearranged options tabs to simplify things a bit for new users.
Made it less likely that a user sees nothing happen for an extended period after starting the screen saver.
Fixed bug that distorted the aspect ratio of background images.
Fixed bug that sometimes caused the scene not to rotate when multiple displays were used, or in the preview in system preferences.
Fixed bug that caused periodic delays where none were desired.
Some small internal improvements.

The sphere has more photos than before; more like the other shapes.
The sphere can no longer immediately follow itself.
Minor adjustments to the curving surface and scattered photos: they cover slightly more space, and photos are now the normal size.
Switched to "trilinear filtering", for possibly improved image quality on some graphics cards.
Improved labels on two of the sliders on the Options page.
More graceful behavior if the user were to manage to un-check all the shapes in the options.
License agreement now available in Options page.
Miscellaneous internal improvements.

New spiral shape!
User can choose what shapes are used, in a new Shapes tab in the options page.
Now possible to move many photos at once. As before, the max number of photos that can move at one time is controlled with the Few At Once ... Many slider in the options. This max at once value will change for 1.1 users when they upgrade, but they can approximate the old behavior by setting it to the 2nd notch.

Demo mode waits 5 seconds longer before dark screen & message.
The cube shape is gone (if enough people miss it, I might be persuaded to bring it back; let me know).
Building roofs no longer shoot up and drop down.
Sphere now sometimes builds from top to bottom, rather than in random order. It always does this when following the spiral, because it looks cool.
New users get slower movement, but more photos move at once.
Speed is more consistent between shapes than before.
Outside holding area is farther away.
Changes to options page: added tool tip for background image button, changed Choose Folder... to Choose Photo Folder....
Smaller file size by shrinking and compressing the default dinosaur image that's contained within.
Internal changes to make it easier to add new shapes in the future.
A couple small internal fixes and adjustments.
Bigger file size after correcting outrageous oversight of compiling only for 64 bit, which must have prevented people with older Macs from using the screen saver.

Remove some code to move images through paths that was needed before Snow Leopard.

Fixed bug that caused default dinosaur image to sometimes appear amongst the user's photos.
Images are now pulled from the source folder in truly random order.
