Anyone know of some software for creating screensavers? I'm creating a countdown till a product release and I want to make a screensaver of that to send out to people who've signed up for updates. Anyone had any experience with this sort of thing? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Not sure about screensavers but I know there's a ton of countdown widgets for apple, yahoo, and the like so it seems that those are pretty easy.

cant remember the name of it offhand but theres one thats been around for years. you feed a swf into it and it spits out a exe (for pc) and a whatever (for mac) that are screensavers.
the only problem with screensavers though is that people have to "install" them onto their computers, bear in mind that if you are sending to corporate clients, a lot of them might not be able to install onto their computers as they dont have admin or their security is so tight.

screentime is great for both mac and pc. But you need to pay. Here's a free one that's meant to be cool:
