    No you cannot. However there are some third party utilities that can do that with any SWF file, So do a search to find some.

    Yes, It's very easy.... 1st create your little movie... save it as swf... than convert the swf file into a screensaver file!

    You'll have to use a different program to convert the swf into a screensaver... If U can't find any, tell us. I'll help U find a free one!

    Wow.

    One of the ones above, FlashPlayer Plus is brilliant !

    Website Here

    It does exactly what it says on the tin! Easy to create a .scr file from a .swf .

    Shame it's not Freeware or Shareware, but I'm just tight like that.

    I highly recommend it.

    If anyone knows if there's something like this for Linux, please tell me!
