Screensaver as Wallpaper?

Sep 22, 2006 2:40AM PDT

I was wondering if there was any kind of application that could play a screensaver as a wallpaper.

I found some programs that play videos as wallpapers but they didn't work very properly...

Thanks !!!

I'm very happy to hear that you found a program, but i can't find a download site.

By tiping "desktop wallpapers" on google or on yahoo, you can image what i get, and i din't find the app on downloads.com.

Are you Sure?

Are you sure that this program can set a screensaver as an animated wallpaper?

It seems to me that its only purpose is to organise your pictures and screensavers.

also you can dowload "sqirl morph" it is a free program that can take jpeg's and other image files and morph them together into avi, flash and gif images i have taken several jpeg's and put them together to do just what you want make an animated desktop wallpaper since i don't like to use screen savers but i do like my wallpaper to change and i am sure there are other programs that will cycle wallpapers but sqirl morph is really cool try it
