1st Screensaver Photo Studio is a user-friendly software for Windows that allows users to create their own photo slide show screen saver using personal images and pictures. Designed for digital camera users, it offers great transition effects and ease of use.
In addition to images, 1st Screensaver Studio also allows users to create promotional screen savers from Macromedia Flash animation files and Powerpoint files. This is a great way for businesses to showcase their brand and services.
Distributing the screen saver is made easy with the option to create a single EXE or ZIP file that can easily be distributed from a website or by email. There are also no additional files needed to run the screen saver, which is a plus.
Another feature that stood out to me was the text support. Users can display their own text on the images and control the font size, color, and type. This allows for more customization and personalization.
Sound file support is also available, allowing users to play separate sound files for each image or a single sound file continuously for all screen saver images. The software supports MP3, WAV, and MIDI files.
Automated image updating is coming soon to 1st Screensaver Studio, allowing users to retrieve new images from their website automatically. Additionally, users will soon be able to create wallpapers from their image files and set the screen saver to randomly change the wallpaper daily.
Hyperlinks can also be set up to direct users to a website from the screen saver settings and about windows. This feature is only available in the Professional and Professional Plus editions.
Users can also create a trial version of the screen saver that expires after a fixed number of days. Text can be added to the trial version to promote the user's website or promote the full version. This feature is only available in the Professional Plus edition.
There are also many transition effects to choose from, including flying images, multiple float, zoom, and random mix. Users can control the speed of these effects.
Lastly, the Professional edition allows users to embed their logo image into the screen saver settings, installation, and about windows. The logo image should be emailed to 1st Screensaver Studio at the time of purchase.
Overall, I highly recommend 1st Screensaver Studio for anyone looking to create personalized and customizable screen savers. The software's features are impressive and offer a lot of flexibility for different needs and preferences.
