How to add two images as a screen saver for Windows 7
Cutting two images together as a screen saver can make the difference between a generic, impersonal screen saver to a very special one, by adding a personal touch to your computer with 2 images of a loved one or a favorite pastime. A screen saver is an image montage that appears when the computer is idle or falls asleep. You must designate the folder of images that you want to show and, after doing so, you can also influence your computer to display the images of the screen saver.
