Thread: Photo screensavers in Vista

The photo screensaver in Windows Vista is more powerful than that of its predecessor, as it can use photos from the internet or videos stored on the computer. Right -click on the Desktop and select Personalize. Left-click on the blue title text 'Screen Saver' then left -click on the dropdown menu and select Windows Live Photo Gallery. Click on the Settings button. Make sure the button option 'Use photos and videos from' is selected and then click on Browse. Select the folder with the photos you want to use as the screensaver and click on OK.



The theme option can be used to add pan and zoom or sepia effects to the photos, or select Random for some variation, or the 'Shuffle contents' option to display the photos out of order. Click on the Save button to accept the options and close the window.
