I created my first SS with SS Factory Pro. I distributed it (well sort of) through a variety of shareware sites. Filesize is a little big, due to the images used - only after distribution I found that reducing JPG quality did not effect the image quality while reducing file size significantly. Ah ...

I did not mention the reason for this request: If I include High-Res images in for example 1000x800 + 800x1000 size, with added border, on many user's computers, an image in portrait layout will fill the screen from top to bottom. It would look nicer if there is a little space between top and bottom ...

I'd like to see an option where I can choose to set the image to be a percentage of the screen, not just full-screen or fit to screen.

One more reason why I need F2 disabled: - if I create a shareware version with a nag overlay screen, and press F2 while the screensaver runs, a clean full image is extracted and set as the desktop, and as mentioned before, saved to disk as a high-res image. A user could simply extract all images and ...

Another thing I forgot to mention: If you apply a mask to the images in the saver (like one of the cool borders included in the saver), and you do a print screen, the whole screen is captured, as usual. In this case that would include the masked image which would be less suitable for printing etc ...

I see. I tested PRSCR and indeed, it made a copy of the screen. The difference is that with F2 the actual high-res image is saved to the disk (windows folder), which can be used as a standalone image. So all one would need to do is F2, save the pic from the windows folder, and do the same for the ...

Hi, I just purchased Screensaver Factory Pro, and by looking at some sample screensavers I noticed that when you press F2 while the screensaver runs, the current picture is set as the desktop background. Is there a way to disable that? If not, can I submit that as an urgent enhancement request? The ...

Downloaded new version (4.11) today, tried out the uninstaller and the problem is only half-fixed; My installer creates folder E:\Program Files\screensaver\ , which has the screensaver file, a readme.txt and the uninstall. E is the Windows XP home drive. Uninstall does remove the contents of the ...

Another thing showed up while testing the screensaver installation package: - I created a screensaver with 1 day limit, installed it - When the trial expired a day later (I set the date), I tried - Open display properties - Select the screensaver - Click 'Preview' - Message pops up telling me to ...

Could you notify me when the new code is available? If you need someone to test it out, I'd be glad to help (can test install / uninstall on WinXP Pro, Win 2000 Pro only, both US English).

thanks,

Hi, I am evaluating the trial enterprise version with the intend to purchase. I like what I have seen so far, better than most other SS creation programs I have tested. One problem I have with SS Factory is that if I create an installer package and install the screensaver, and then try to uninstall ...
