Recommendation for mosaic/tiled live screensaver that reads folders of pictures?

(1/2) > >>

superboyac:
I want a screensaver or a software that can display a bunch of pictures from a group of folders.  But I want it to display the pictures like dozens at a time, not just one or two at a time.  Like a mosaic or tiled interface.  I'd like some snazzy effects, and the pictures to change often randomly, and the tiles don't have to be consistent sizes, they can be all over the place.

Anyone know of such a software?

Multi Photo Quotes does a pretty dang good job of this.  Very nice. :Thmbsup:

superboyac:
This is working great.

Just one comment:
I have a lot of directories loaded with large files.  MPQ seems to have some performance issues with it, if it's simple to fix, that would be nice.  If it's too much, no big deal.  Loading the configuration screen and exiting, and also the launching of the screensaver can take a while.  On my computer, it was about 10-20 seconds for each of those things.  And it's a pretty beefy computer: 12GB ram, i7.

(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.
