A list of pages that resemble screensavers. Once you fullscreen them and optionally disable your monitor turning off after a while of inactivity, you have a nice little screensaver. Additionally, it can turn into a live wallpaper if you focus on another application using Meta + Number or Alt + Tab and can be even better by marking that window to always be in the background
If you want to, you can even download the webpages and set them up to be opened when you open up your browser
Stuff from other people that I modified to fit my taste
Every one of these has a feature where if you move your mouse cursor to the right window border, it'll get hidden. This is only really useable if you fullscreen the browser window. This function is a bit bugged with "Living Worlds in HTML5 (Simple Fullscreen)", though still partly/mostly useable.
A modified version of "Rainstorm" from "After Dark Screensavers in CSS" by Bryan Braun. Specifically, it removes the thunder that appears every 7 seconds.

This screensaver doesn't seem to work as my browser won't display the iFrame that's needed even though it does so when I work on my website locally - It bickers about an expired certificate, which makes sense since the website is abandoned, but also doesn't because it still lets me connect to it when I work on this site locally.
A modified version of "Living Worlds in HTML5", an HTML remake/port of the pretty pixel art that would dynamically change throughout the day that was present in an old program that was famous for said pixel art.
This simple version simply scales the image up to your browsers width & height while keeping the images aspect ratio. This comes at the cost of removing the options available on the original website.
Requires JavaScript to function properly, both by the actual website itself as well as my spaghetti scaling coding.

A version of the simple version where the image spreads out to the full viewport, cutting parts of it off in favor of full immersion. Also allows scrolling in the direction the image's cut off in.
From others
Using the browser inspector you can remove the three buttons on the bottom once you've turned everything on.
A website that might also be potent as a screensaver. Features music you can activate by clicking anywhere.
Possible Ideas
- Mt. Celeste Live Wallpaper
-
A firework one
(Idea based on silvester right now and a particular customizable screensaver called "Pyro" from the XScreenSaver Collection) -
A colorful bubble screensaver one
(Based on the bubble screensaver I found in both Windows 7 and 11, perhaps with options like popable bubbles and other settings) -
More simple animated space backgrounds
(like the one present on vertpush!) - A snow/winter/one for every season/one that changes for each season
-
One that changes for each hours of the day
(e.g. when it's night in irl it's night on there as well) , with perhaps some ambience? - One with a clock/visualisation of how far in you're in the week
- A campfire/fireplace one
-
Snowfall
(like the pretty snow effect present in the Saint's campaign in Rain World) - MelonLand Forum - Default Theme background?
