pc screen saver photos.
« on: November 26, 2010, 15:32:46 »
I have set my pc screen saver up to go through my photo albums. I was wondering if there is anyway to stop certain albums from being shown because as much as I like see ing the underneath of my car and insides of car parts, I dont really want them on my screen saver. I would rather see action ones of me going through muddy puddles! lol

In Windows 7, you can set the folder you want displayed.

Right click the desktop. Personalize (US spelling  :evil:). Go to 'Screen Saver Settings', click the settings button and use the browse button to select the folder you want to display. However, this only allows you to use one folder so you would have to dump all the pictures you want to use into a new folder and use that one.

I'm guessing it will be similar, but there's no telling with Vista though.... even by Microsofts standards, it was a dreadful product!

s'easy... set uo a folder to dump the pics you DO want... I call mine "Screensaver"... then just select that in the same way.
