wow, this will make the CPU work!! If you don't have 12GB RAM, you better click both "cache new images before starting animation" and "Pre-cache images now..." (and wait for half an hour)!

The price is only $5 http://mosaicinfinite.com/register/ , but I don't want it.

(Mosaic Screensaver...) Where you at somebody's house and saw the screensaver on their Mac?? The neighbor had a (Mac Leopard) mosaic screensaver running that was positively mesmerizing. A quick Google search turned up these (for Windows):

...I'm thinking of trying out the second one.

I did see the photo wall thing on the mac, very cool.  I'll check these out and see how good they.  MPQ is doing a pretty great job so far, except for those performance comments I had.  I don't quite understand's MPQ's algorithm, but whatever it is, it has a nice effect on multiple monitors.  If you set the crop settings properly, the photos cycle through really nicely.  Some photos will randomly be fullscreen, and if you set the the changing frequency to something fast (i have 3 seconds), it makes for a nice photo wall display.
