Animatedwallpaper7 (or awallpapermill) seems to have been incorporated to market animated wallpapers made with Desktop Paints’ Animated Wallpaper maker (offered here several times) with which you can make your own animations, which is much more fun – and much cheaper - than buying them readymade, IMHO.
Desktop Paints is a Russian Company based in St Petersburg, for those who are interested:

To give you an idea, here you can download my own aquarium made with Desktop Paints software:

(Animated wallpaper and screensaver homemade with Desktop Paints’ programs found here. Heavy because of the two mp3 included, but 100% clean)

A very nice wallpaper! Runs great on Win 8. Looks realistic & animations do also. I actually had it already, but wasn't sure by just the name so got it now. It's red & white fancy goldfish, in nice aquarium.
One odd thing is that when you click to see other anim. wallpaper from there, I got a warning that it's a reported dangerous site. I don't recall if I got any malware from the site before, so can't advise on that. If I did I obviously didn't know that's where it came from. Be wise is all I can say. And remember that not all sites that give you a warning are really bad. Some people report it as bad if there's a price & they thought it was free. I think I have 3 anim wallpapers from there, so...it is probably safe. My anti-virus didn't warn me, not sure what did. Maybe Advanced System Care or Glary Utilities, dunno.
Thank you, awallpapermill! :)

installed without problem. once the wallpaper starts it makes your desktop icons blur and a little miss aligned. also first alphabet of each icon on the left side line is also not visible. uninstalled it.

Installed without problems on a Win8.1Pro 64 bit system. The software comes preregistered.

A company without name and address.

The software is from 2012.

Well ... depending on your existing wallpaper you either see something or you see nothing. You can recognize some of your buttons on the desktop or it is a search in muddy water. This software does not replace (in my case Win 8.1?)the wallpaper but overlay the existing wallpaper. And there is no way to change this or to change transparency.

A much to simple made "aquarium" in version 2 - there are better ones, real good one. Maybe one of your children will have some fun with this.

Uninstalled via reboot.

Cute. Using Direct X & your graphics hardware, Gold Fish Animated Wallpaper does not have the higher level of detail or realism of the latest high-end games, but then it doesn't consume a lot of resources either -- with an AMD 7870, Afterburner showed periodic spikes in GPU usage to 4%. Process Explorer showed CPU use at 0.19 % with an i7 2600k.

Process Explorer also showed Gold Fish Animated Wallpaper using Internet Explorer, for those who don't have it installed & working.

That said, there were a couple things I found puzzling: Monitoring the install in a win7 32 bit VM, win7's registry went nuts with hundreds of thousands of new registry entries. I've seen this happen from time to time, and all indications are that those added entries are very temporary, but it's unusual with such a simple app [only one file] & install routine. 2nd, copying that single file to my regular win7 64 install to monitor GPU use, I recorded all changes made to the registry when Gold Fish Animated Wallpaper was run. It added itself to 1 of the registry's Run keys [you can turn that on/off in the settings], which is no big deal, but RegShot 2 recorded a string of characters appended after the file name -- "aquarium2_full.exe ﴀ 瀸癳﵌涑癳浑癳鐁鑟 আ @$ p ". Those characters do not show up in Regedit, but then characters the registry considers illegal won't. It's probably nothing since Desktop Paints etc. has been around for a while, but I've never seen that sort of thing before.
