I want to make a custom screensaver for a business. They have a flash movie which was made for their business. Can I turn that into a screensaver? If not, can I make something like it as a screensaver? i.e. with moving text across images, various fades/dissolves/transparency between image and text. I need something more than just simple slide show.

i did a fscking search on google and after it told me you were a fscking ass it gave me a bunch of fscking adds and misc. garbage none of which was a fscking opinion by a fscking educated person who has actually used a fscking program

I used to use FlashJester Creator.

Here's a few more I've never tried:
Flash2Screensaver
FlashForge

Using Flash to create a screensaver is the best method. We all know how flexible Flash is (especially with actionscripting) and everything else is left to your imagination. Flash is way underrated.

Thanks guys, that helps me out! rbloedow: do you know if that's ad supported? In the FlashJester faq they say one of their advantages is that they aren't ad supported like screenweaver....

I think you should just go with the simplest tool out there. That may be my 2nd listing... I've never tried it though.

right. I think FlashJester is pretty pricey for what I'll be needing to do. I don't need alot of options, it just needs to convert it to a file that will install and open on the pc with no other plugins etc.
