I’ve never felt like Mac screensavers were personalized enough. And I wanted to give myself and others the ability to create their own new GIF screensavers for mac.
GIF art is something that is newly being used in DJ sets and night clubs for art and communication.
I’ve created a free download for anyone with a mac that wants to make GIF screensavers on the Mac. It’s awesome and easy to use.
Here are the instructions.
- Find GIFS that you enjoy ( giphy, google images, tumblr )
- Put the GIFS into a folder on your computer
- Click the link below to download the screensaver.
- Double click the file (MAGS.saver) to install it.
- Select MAGS in the left pane to set it as your screensaver.
- Press the “Screen Saver Options…” button
- Press the “Choose a folder with gifs” button and select the folder where you saved the GIFS.
- Press the “Ok” button
- Press the “Preview” button
- Enjoy!
Download the screensaver file for Mac (MAGS.saver) [Mac OS 10.14 or below]
MAGS does not work on Mac 10.15 Catalina. Apple is not saying when they will fix the sandboxing issue. Please contact me and let me know you need a Catalina build.
Download MYNA for FREE to play animated gifs on your MAC [Mac OS 10.7-10.15 Catalina]
I created a FREE app for Mac that plays animated GIFS on your computer. It’s called MYNA
