     There was a rash of polygon screen savers appearing here so I thought I'd make one that is at LEAST nice to look at! This isn't a screen saver yet just the fun part. Will mezmorize you for minutes on end. Uses the polygon API. ** See the full screen saver version here: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=52391&lngWId=1

Very compact and clean code. Good results. Smooth animation.
Compile this as flowers.scr and put in c:\windows\system32\ and you can select it as a windows screensaver.

5 globes for good code
