[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1814784, member: 110816"] A couple of things. If a user is logged in, you can set the screen saver to come on and not have the display go top sleep. This will allow you to show a series of images and have access to the entire variety of screen savers on the system (Apple provided or 3rd party). However, if no one is logged in and the machine is sitting at the Login screen, you are seriously limited in the types of screen savers you can use due to security reasons. So screen savers that want to randomize things aren't supported, neither are screen savers that want to access images since you aren't logged in, you shouldn't have access. You will be limited to screen savers that show lights, time, computer name or a message bouncing around. So, even if you got the screen saver to do what you want, you will not be able to make it show the images. [/QUOTE]
