Slide show screensavers

Looking for a little help from the retrophisch readership (all 3 of you): I’d like to create a slide show-style screensaver, like those that come pre-installed with OS X, but I don’t want to use the .Mac Slides Publisher to do it. I know I can just point the Screen Effects pane to a folder of pics, but it tends to limit the number of pics to five. And I’d like to provide the screen saver as a download to other OS X users.

Of course, I’m looking to do this cheap and easy, so recommendation on products such as iScreensaver Designer, PhotoCircus, or any others would be appreciated.

Let's see... there's me and Lee... so who's the third :)

I haven't tried any of these, but they might fit your bill (and they're free :)

Well, there's Michael. And Michael. And Raena. And Brian. And Dan. And Damien. Sometimes Rick. Sometimes FranX. Sometimes an attorney or two my wife works with.

At least those are the ones I know read enough to either leave comments or send me email. Ok, so maybe it's more than three. :)

Thanks for the pointers, Eric! I'm off to explore.

Free is GOOD.
