I would have to see them first. Maybe you could post the pictures of the lifts that are used in your screen saver, because that way we could give you some input on it.

Yea, I see a big problem with this screen saver then if the pictures came from the gallery. There is going to be major resolution problems because the gallery pictures are automatically risized if they are too big and the quality of the pictures is automatically brought down. I don't know how popular a screen saver with distored images is going to be. If the images were their original size, that would work then.

I'd download it, my screensaver is boring, just a big apple.

(If you haven't figured it out above I use a Mac.)

Mac's are much faster than PC and OSX is a better operating system. I have to say we get shafted in terms of games.

Darn your lucky ISMrider, I use 10.2.8 because my parents won't let me spend my money on panther because they "don't see the point of it", then again they don't know what a usb cable is.... :help:

Can't stand Macs. I use XP and I have a slow linux box which I never use (but I probably should).

I've got XP on one and linux on a P3... it's slow - but only because it needs some more ram.
