    Bob -

    I know your plate is pretty full with suggestions and ideas...

    but....<grin>.... after just spending $16 for a stand alone application that takes swfs and converts them to screensavers (flash 2 screensaver is the name of it)...
    http://www.neoaspire.com/Flash2Screensaver/index.htm

    Would it be possible to have koolmoves be able to export as a screensaver? I would have rather paid you the $16 <grin>

    I think this would be a KILLER feature and even merit a little higher cost for Koolmoves.

    You do realize there is freeware that does this right?

    Digital Dog who used to frequent this forum also wrote an app which he allows you to use for free non-comercial uses and is $13 for comercial uses called Flash Field.

    Free for all uses
    http://screenweaver.com/download.htm

    Free for personal uses
    http://www.bhwhost.com/tcb_software/home.html
    http://www.flashwiz.co.uk/index.asp

    These apps are a dime a dozen

    If you want an installer alng with it there is Inno
    http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php

    Its free also.

    There are also 2 projector apps that are free non-comercial/$10 comercial

    The market is saturated.

    Yeah - I found many freeware ones... but I had to be honest and pay since I will be using them commercially for other companies. so I forked over my $16....

    ScreenWeaver 1.X Freeware edition can be used for comercial projects.

    It would be an interesting feature to export as a Screensaver but how much value will that really add as there are free products to do this and there are several at the under $20 level.

    I'm still waiting for WMF and SVG export... Now that would be hot. Especially SVG export.


    To be honest a couple of add-ons like a basic WYSWIG web editor, basic image app, basic projector tool, and basic sound app would be nice but would require some resources to create.

    Sell them individually for $30 a pop or sell them as a collection. This is actually what CoffeCup software does now... except I'm not the bigest fan of most their wares.

    You'd be surprised what companies want to use for marketing campaigns...and what they pay for such items.
