I just took a look at the slidesavers - looks like all they are are bundles with a bunch of jpegs in the Resources folder. No executable code at all! So i copied Cosmos.slideSaver and threw in some of my Family jpegs into the Resources folder - now I have a Family slideSaver.

If you really want to be slick and not make a duplicate copy of the pix, you can just make the "Resources" folder within the bundle a symlink to the folder full of jpgs you want to show. (just tried it - works!)

Hi,

I've noticed that there's a Slide Show.saver in the ScreenSaver.framework resources, and that screensavers like Cosmos and Forest have the extension slideSaver. I guess they must all use the same ScreenSaver subclass. Does anyone know how I can make my own slideSaver? I know I could just choose Slide Show in the Screen Saver preferences and direct it to my own folder of images, but I would prefer to make my own slideSaver so I can quickly switch between image sets. Or is there a way to have two copies of the Slide Show one with different preferences?
