ok guys, after a bit of help.

my boss has just informed that he wants 'us' to design a screensaver which we can let customers have.

now although the idea isnt a bad one, im a bit stuck on what to use for design. i know he's after a bit more than a static one.

is something like flash any good for this purpose?!? i really am a novice on these kind of things ....

This site [screensaverz.net] has some great tutorials on creating screen savers. If you know vb I think you should do it in that instead of something running inbetween.

There are also some add-ons you can get for Flash and Director that will allow you to export your animations as self extracting screen savers.

This could be another option for creating a more lively, animated screen saver.
