Default Screensaver/wallpaper question....

Is it possible to set a saved photo to be your screensaver image? Also is there somewhere to change a setting or something to where the image shows up on the whole screen instead of just on the right side?

Yes you can...there is a computer section in here at the top of the DF home page. Post in there and I'm sure the 94Ohio guy will be happy to jump in to help you with all of this...good luck!

For the wallpaper, just right click on the picture and "Set As Desktop Background".

On the screensaver, you should have a tab for that on the display menu. What version of Windows are you using?

When you are at your screensaver, right click, then click on properties. Then click on desktop, hit the browse button, find the picture and click on it. Then in the other choice box, hit stretch and it will fill the whole screen. Some pics will get distorted to much depending on picture and screen size.

As for the screen saver, same place, just hit the screensaver tab instead of the desktop one. Your choice there is my pictures slideshow. If all you pics are there, they will all rotate through. If you only have one pic there and all the rest in folders, it will just show the one.
