A fun suggestion - but DIFFICULT! :)

Hi,
I have a suggestion. I used to own a real koi pond - even belonged to the koi club and showed my fish for a few years. I've been playing around with your marvelous screen saver, but one thing is drivng me batty.....I want to feed the fish! One of the most fun things about owning real koi (or enjoying someone else's) is feeding them. They all crowd around and gobble the food, sometimes even climbing on top of each other. Watching these realistic screen koi makes me REALLY miss feeding mine!
Now, I know that jumping on top of each other would be next to impossible to create - but couldn't you make some of them (or all of them) have the ability to come to the surface and open their mouths and eat virtual pellets? Maybe in response hitting a certain key or something? Yes, I know it would be hard to do, but it would take this program to a whole 'nother dimension.

By the way....I lost all my demo version fish before I had the chance to see them in the pond. I was fussing with the program trying to set it up and failed to see the "preview" button...SO...I just kept closing and opening the program to see the screensaver kick in. Within about a minute, I had lost all the demo fish (except the top 3). Perhaps you could make them last an hour at least? Yes, I'm still using the demo. I *AM* going to purchase your program, I've just been out of work for 4 months due to an injury and so can't afford it right now (they denied my workmans comp). I promise I'll buy it as soon as I can.

Thanks,

Yes, being feeding the koi is an integral part of the koi experience!
