Create own screen saver (.scr) 1

[makemusic]

I'd like to create my own screen saver for people to dload off my site but do I need to pay for a screen saver software package? Isn't there a way of creating a simple photo slide show for free, or can anyone suggest a free screensaver package?

Thanks!

Nice shiny star for you, bcastner. Thanks!

Hope it helps.

Remember that .scr files are esssentially Win32 .exe files, so they are a little bit complicated.

hmmm, unfortunately the only builder there includes the images as seperate files, with the screensaver calling each one up seperately. I want to be able to include all the images in one file so the images cannot be 'stolen'.
