Well they are in their own folder, and I could probably eliminate them if I really tried! I have a folder for almost every year from from 1883 to the present time. My family took 100´s of photos! I am scanning from morning till night...lol

I will just keep the gristlies it perks up conversation lol

Well I´m off to bed, it´s 11.30 here. sweet dreams.

Yeah, I must have done that. Problem is it does ALL the photos and I´ve got some grisly close up medical ones on there too........

What I´ve got as a screen saver is ALL my photos, which are probably 100O´s now. It is wonderful, sometimes I just sit there (usually when I´m munching something!) and watch all my family and ancestors sliding past. As all my children and grandchildren live in UK this is a wonderful thing for me. When I have visitors they are always entranced watching! Don´t ask me though how I did it, as it´s been going for years now and I can´t remember how I did it!

Margaret, I think if your photo is upside down as a screen saver then it must be upside down in your "picture files". Just rotate it there and it will come up the right way on your screen.

Hi Margaret

On your desktop where your icons are right click on your mouse and either go into properties if you are on XP or personalize if you are on Vista and click on screen saver you should be able to scroll through whatever pictures you wish to choose - click apply or ok and hey presto...
