Image SlideShow? - C# / C Sharp

Brian Basquille

Hello all,

Am interested in doing on Image SlideShow. The user will add some photos
into a ListBox and then press Start Slide Show and it will then display
these selected photos in a SlideShow.

However, is it possible to do it like it was a screensaver? In other words,
with the image going from top to bottom of the screen with nothing else in
the background... just black?

If so, i may make it customizable for borders etc. but this will do for now.

Anybody have any suggestions if and how i can implement this?

Hi Brian,

Sure it is possible to make it a screensaver.
All you need to do is rename your .exe to .scr and provide a way to launch
your application in either screensaver mode or setup mode (done with
arguments).

This page should get you started

Note however that .Net isn't hardware accelerated in any way and moving
images around might not look so good.

Happy Coding!
