PolarClock 3.0 is now available as a screen saver for Mac and Windows, and also as a dashboard widget for OSX Tiger. This release is a total rebuild from scratch using Flash CS3, Flex Builder and ActionScript 3.0. There has been a staggering amount of feedback over the past few months, all of which was very useful. There are more things to add, but there are only so many hours in the day!
New Features
Language Selection (28 languages so far)
Text alignment (outside, centre or inside of arc)
Font size 12 – 30pt
24/12 hour clock modes
Flipping of text when it’s in the lower half of the arc (to stop it being upside down)
Guidelines behind arcs
Arc properties (thickness, padding, radius )
A spacer Arc for padding between Date and Time ( movable to be between any arc)
Continuous/Stepped motion (continuous was requested a lot, so that you can see a minute slowly stretching each second to become the next minute etc).
Ordering of the arcs. You can put the arcs in any order that you want.
Colours: Luminance, change the lightness of the arcs
Colours: Saturation, change the strength of the colour
Colours: Hue offset, change the hue of the arcs to between 0º and 360º.
A comprehensive options panel has been added, see below:

Credits
I’d like to thank all the people that helped out with translation and beta testing. They are: Boolean, Fred, Kamil, Joel, Jan, qureyoon, guadonpost, nuzzaci, rmart, kamen56, adt, vitor, hsin, nstasinopoulos, HUcast, senny, Etam, pirho, Thomas, Gyt, skadet, Felipe Santini, dan, weq, korocop, interfuser, sub, foizy, Dennis van Lith, napalmcool, and of course, some use of babelfish!
Warning
Some people have reported that the rings of the clock burn into their screens. I have not seen this as an issue, but I suspect that is because my monitor is set to sleep 15 minutes after the screen saver starts, so there isn’t sufficient time to do any damage. So I’d suggest that you do the same on your set up.

Tim WalkerYou know, if this clock screensaver was ported to Symbian^3 (the OS used on the Nokia N8), I'd pay for it:
