I am using Win Xp Home Ed. on a desktop PC.
I have 8-10 photos that are my "Best of the Best" that I would like to
display as my Screen Savers.
When I open "Display Properties" and click "Screen Saver" tab, I am
offered a choice of several images courtesy of Windows, or I can select
"My Pictures Slideshow".
The problem is that the "My Pictures" slideshow selects RANDOMLY from
many hundreds of saved images in the My Pictures Folder. I dont want a
random selection. I want only certain specific pictures to be displayed
in the Screen Saver.
How can I do this without moving the vast majority of my pictures to
some other folder and just keep the selected photos in the My Pictures
Folder.

==================================
Why not place your 8-10 favorite images in
a separate folder and point the My Pictures
Slideshow to it.

You can choose any folder you wish by clicking
the Settings button and Browse to the folder of
your choice.
