**Will some near genius create a fireworks screensaver with current clock display for me for free? PLEASE?
I have searched the web for two days and have found nothing. Is it even possible?
Either way, may God bless you!
Peace to all. **

Seems someone has done this. I'm reading https://www.zerge.com/firework-screensaver/ My bet is there are others out there for other OSes.

Nice. The last time I saw Windows fire works SS was in Windows 3 with some addon pack. No clock.

Key words, FREE and CLOCK! Friends, is the combination even possible?
Please advise.

I didn't see any mention it must be free in the request. Are you having LOG IN ISSUES? I see you have a second account here.
While I could write one, my works have all been for companies and paid for. I haven't written a free app in decades.

Lacking a screen-saver (which is no longer required to save your display) why not just download a fireworks video and have it play full-screen on repeat?

VLC Player runs on Apple OS, Windows, Linux and what else?

Where may I download the "Marqe" app? I think that may be just what I was looking for.
I thank you kind people.

I can't find where anyone here wrote "Marqe" but the Marq filter is built into or part of VLC Player. In case you missed how to use it, read https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Modules/marq
My preferred source for VLC Player is at ninite.com
