Project as a screensaver?

How do you turn a design project you made into a screen saver?  I know it is possible, but how do you do it?  smile  Thanks!

You might be able to save it as a .GIF... I'm not sure.

I made a screensaver a while ago which lets you view online projects on a screen saver.

No, that's just when the Java applet runner fails.

You could record it with a recorder like Camstudio and convert the video file to a GIF, if that's possible. I haven't really worked with GIF's before, so I'm not sure what you wold use to do that.  hmm
