Hello,

Good Day!!!

I want to create my own screen saver- making my photo file to act as one; the same way as that of a flying windows would do. If not this can be very normal and plain without much design complexities. And would be pleased to get a series of photos activated into a screen saver... is it possible????

I want to do this without any utility(download) available in the internet... i.e., using windows properties itself- I tried this in the "accessories" components of the "windows setup" tab of the "add/remove programs" in the control panel... but, it wouldn't do it... don't know why!!!

Please help... thanks in advance...

Bye bye, with regards...
Zib
 
Screen savers are programs. Windows itself doesn't save the screen, it calls a program when a specified interval has elapsed.

Search for *.SCR and you will find examples of these programs on your computer. In order to obtain the level of customization you are seeking, you will have to write a program.... How to do that is beyond the scope of this forum.
