If you haven't been introduced to the official mascots for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, here's your chance.
If you didn't know, the Chinese have decided to go for several mascots instead of one known as "Fuya". Each of the 5 mascots (to symbolize the 5 Olympic rings) mascot is pictured in a different pose, outfit and colour. Fuwa also apparently embody the natural characteristics of four of China's most popular animals - the Fish, the Panda, the Tibetan Antelope, the Swallow - and the Olympic Flame. The macots are Beibei (gentle and pure), Jingjing (makes children smile), Huanhuan (symbolising fire and the passion of sport), Yingying (swift as an antelope symbolizing China's landscape) and Nini (joyful and innocent as a swallow).
In this Beijing Olympics themed screensaver however, the mascots are not featured for some reason. Basically, you've got a green landscape that's constantly rolling along with the time and a countdown to the Olympics in the top left hand corner. It seems to be depicting some kind of green paradise although how the Olympics is contributing to this I'm not sure. The fact that all the text is in Chinese is a bit annoying (come on organisers - I thought this was supposed to be the most international sporting event in the world!). The installation process however is remarkably fast - it takes literally 1 second to make it available in your screensaver selection box in the control panel.
Get into the Olympic mood and celebrate the 2008 Beijing Olympics in green style with this stylish screensaver.
