Wildlife screen save
I have just made a really superb screen saver using a program called SST Tool box http://downloads.theregister.co.uk/W...s-toolbox.html
I used 5 different photos cropped to a width 1024 and spruced up a little in CS2
and then added to the program. I get the 5 photos changing on the screen with different transitions between them. This can be done on the program with any photos of course and as many as you like. I chose 5. Music can also be added.
I think it is very nice especially when it is your own creation entirely.

Looks like a nice little utility Chocky, I don't tend to use screen savers though, apart from on the laptop when I'm away. :)
-
I only use them when I have a meal or if some one should call and don't want to switch off.
Some peeps have them on all the time but I find they slow down the computer as they run in the back ground even when not showing. Just thought some one who does might like to make some.
-
Yep, good idea. :)
Do you use your own photos as desktops?
-
No.
I should
I had a problem with the memory on the PB but I don't on here. I could put more memory in the PB but It's now a spare so don't need the added expense. I did put a 512 stick in upping it to 700+ still not enough This has a gig I want to put another gig in it . May be after Christmas
I think I will use my Kestrel for the desk top . I'm so proud of it :)
-
Yes, good idea. :) I'm using the Speckled wood butterfly at the moment. :)
-
I have put my Kestrel on the desktop. I still can't believe I got so close.
When I think about it now It's a little daunting because the grass and nettles etc were up as high as my waist and really thick and last year I was bitten by a snake in shorter grass than that. I just didn't think. Matt was watching so this time I wasn't alone. It was only a grass snake but it could have been an adder.
-
Well it was certainly worth the effort Chocky. :)
-
Yes. You don't think at the time. One can't shy away every time thinking it will go wrong we'd never do any thing and life would be boring :-lmao
Was just going to upload the snake bite but I can't find it.
