Screensaver Question
I want to make a custom screen saver for my Mac. I'm using OS X. I want the the screen saver to be a slide show between different texts that I write. Does anyone know a way to do this? Thanks for any help.

Hi there:

There's probably a different way to do it, but the easiest way I can think of is to use a text editor (Pages, Word or TextEdit) and take screen shots of each text (Apple/Shift/4), save them in a folder and point your screensaver to that folder. Then choose Slideshow as the Display Type.

Hope that helps.
