Roll EyesWhere can I find some good downloadable aviation screen savers?

Any screen savers that have everything to do with aircraft, airports, etc.

All help will be greatly appreciated.    Thanks

I make my own from a collection of airliners.net photos and Webshots.com software (or the built-in Windows XP screensaver program).
 

...&&It is better to remain silent and be considered a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.&&&&There were once four people named Everybody, Somebody, Nobody and Anybody. Somebody had to do a job, but Nobody wanted to do it. Nobody could see that Anybody could do it, and Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job. Nobody ended up doing it, and it so happened that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

If you have Windows XP, then just get a bunch of photos/screenshots, put them in your "My Pictures" folder, and select the "My Photos Slideshow" option in your screensaver list Smiley

Yup, that's an excellent way to put your screen shots to good use.
Actually, you can configure it to use any folder.

BTW I purchased a coppy  of VR Man's "Flight" screen saver years ago and still use it on ocasion.

...mmm...they don't HAVE to be in the "My Pictures" folder in fact if they are you will get any other pics in there on your screensaver. Just select My Pictures Slideshow from the screensaver list and then Settings..........browse to the folder you want to use and click OK.....commoner
