Review
A powerful if bare-bones utility, this tool is well suited for anyone who wants to create and distribute shareware screensavers. The program allows users to start with virtually any kind of basic content, including images, videos, or Flash animations. It's a bit more selective with audio, supporting MP3, WAV, and MIDI soundtracks. For each media item, a would-be designer can set captions, backgrounds, and transition effects. The application offers a wide variety of distribution options, allowing users to set shareware restrictions and customize all aspects of the installation file. While the overall interface is not particularly creative or appealing, it does logically lay out all the steps of the process. It's probably too much firepower for the average home user, but we'd happily recommend this download to anyone who wants to create and distribute shareware screensavers.
