Screensaver production 1

[balance]

Hey Group,

I know this may not be the right group to ask but I'm stuck on where to go. My question is, What is the best method to produce a screensaver? Is it best to build in flash and use a conversion program? What options are there? What have you used in the past or heard of people using? What is the least heavy on machine resources (CPU usage, etc.)?

Thanks for all your help,

AJ

Ive done mine in VB....its dead easy and then you change the file exetention to make it a screensaver. I spose it depends on how complex you want it to be.

That would be C/C++

I am thinking of the same thing.... but i dont want to create it in a programming language.

Anyone know of where i can get something to create a slideshow screensaver type thing, that is easy to use.. and preferably free.

download a copy of irfanview (freeware) from

http://www.irfanview.com/

and you can build a screensaver from images using the slideshow function.
