    I have webshots so it's easy for me to use a jpeg on my computer as a screen saver. How do I do that on my friends computer that doesn't have webshots? I'm trying to get a jpeg in her picture folder to be her screen saver?

    She has XP SP2 Home Edition

    Try a My Pictures Slide Show from the screensaver drop down list using one - or more pictures.

    I could only get a pick of folders, not an individual picture. So I picked a folder with holiday pictures in it. So it's at least way better than that boring XP screen saver.

    You aroused my curiosity :) - what is/are 'webshots' - a program or ....?

    I've had it for quite awhile. You can set the pictures as screen saver and or wallpaper. There's a few settings you can play with. When I first downloaded it, I got a sample of pictures with it. I downloaded more for my favourites folder. Now I just add pictures from my computer.
