This looks great! And you implemented the feature I was planning to ask for, adjustable delay between images!

Sean: Try changing the “Delay between pictures” as shown in the above screenshot. If you don’t have this option then you might have downloaded the old version of the screensaver.

Everyone: Thanks for the comments. Feedback always welcome.

THis sounds fantastic. Any chance a Mac version is in development?

I love the concept - however, it cannon seem to find my screen name! I’m not sure how the backend searches for the screen name, but it doesn’t seem to be working with mine:

M A X (those are spaces)

I tried changing my sn to MAX in case it was the spaces throwing it off, but it didn’t help.

Steve: No, I’m not a mac user (and .Net doesn’t run on mac).

Try 1001 which I believe has a screensaver on it now.

MAX: I’ve tried myself and can’t get you on your username.. I’ll raise it on the developed list and get back to you.

There’s some sequence that occasionally throws an exception. Something to do with photo not found. Here’s the error

Yep, got that one - working on an update to fix these issues (had to edit the comment as it was very long).
