Hi Jeff,

I'm not sure if I created this myself, or if the installer did it, but
I have a shortcut on my desktop which will start gPhotoShow using the
screensaver settings. If you don't have it, you can recreate it like
this:

First figure out where gPhotoShow.scr is installed on your computer.
On my computer, it is C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\gPhotoShow.scr.

Next, "right-click" on an empty spot on your desktop, and choose
New...Shortcut. Enter the full location to gPhotoShow.scr. Click
Next. Choose a name for the icon (e.g. "Start gPhotoShow"). Click
Finish.

Voila, you now have a desktop shortcut that will immediately start the
screensaver.

Hope this helps,
