I downloaded a trial version of Screensaver Factory yesterday. I tried making a screensaver using 75 jpg images of travel scenery. When I built the exe it was 300MB! That's WAY too huge to share.
My camera is 10 megapixel so my images are huge. So I messed with the options. There's a "resize to fit screen" option which I checked. I also tried "resize only if image is too big" option. But these appear to only relate to displaying the image, not to compressing/resizing the images when creating the exe.
Am I missing something? Seems like the program should automatically resize my images to 1280x1024 for inclusion in the .exe -- and a quality setting control would be nice, too. I did try a test to manually resize my 75 images to 1280x1024 and the resultant .exe that Screensaver Factory made was 50MB. That's more like it! But I don't want to have to resize each image manually in the future.
Please tell me there's a way to do this with the program.
