The description of Beijing Olympics Screensaver 1 - Play With New Friends
Official Beijing Olympics mascot themed screensaverIf you haven't been introduced to the official mascots for the 2008 Beijing Olympics, here's your chance.Unusually, 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 mascot themed screensaver you've got a grey background which cycles through a silhouette of various sports while in the foreground, the colourful mascots also appear at various intervals in different poses. There's also a countdown in the top right although it's not clear what for because all the text is in Chinese (come on organisers - I thought this was supposed to be the most international sporting event in the world!). It's likely that it's a countdown until the start of the Olympics thought. The installation process is also only in Chinese although it's quite obvious how to install it.Get into the Olympic mood as these fun mascots jump out and grab you in celebrating the 2008 Beijing Olympics.Get into the Olympic mood as these fun mascots jump out and grab you in celebrating the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
