Ever wish you could design your own fantastic screen saver from the ground up, but lack the programming experience necessary? Do you have an archive of pictures you think would make a wonderful cavalcade of scenes and create a nice atmosphere when you leave your PC running but are AFK? Well Xemi Computer, Ltd. brings you the ability to easily create custom screensavers, in a “flash”.
Flash Screensaver Builder brings to the desktop the power of the web based multimedia authoring language, Macromedia Flash. Users of Windows can now enjoy one click creation of Flash screen savers from either shockwave media files or their own image files on their PC. Now you can watch Grandma’s head bounce around the screen (that is a scary thought) or view a rotating album of your last vacation photos. The easy wizards allow even us progmatically-challenged to create screensavers in one step. The advanced functions of the interface allow more experienced users to get the most out of the package. They can customize movement speed, repeats, colors, lines, add flash and multimedia content, and much more.
The feature that impressed me most was the ability to take a full Shockwave .swf movie and convert it to a full-fledged screensaver. Any .swf format movie is a candidate for this conversion. If you have a creative flair about you and some time on your hands, spend a couple hours with Flash Screensaver Builder. Download it now.
