Incredible is a series of screen savers where you experience a
variety of incredibly wonderful views. It provides not only
animations but also sound effects. A major difference between
Incredible and other screen savers is that
Incredible is designed from the point of art - It is a life art!
In this park, Tropic, You will explore wonderful Tropical views.
It also inlcudes some COOL utility
functions such as MessagePad (which allows your visitors leave
you Text, Voice, Picture, and even Movie) and Task Scheduler
(which allows you launch executable files at the time you specify).
Enjoy it!

A COOL shareware, Savervisor is included. Savervisor is a Screen
Saver and Wall Paper Manager. It provides a lot of VERY COOL
functions:
