Extending Desktop Slide Show

Hi

I'd like to be able to combine the slide shows from a couple of Microsoft-supplied built-in Themes. Does anyone know if this is possible? If so, how is it done?

Change to all the Windows Themes and take a Snapshot of each theme. Once finished use all the snapshots in a slideshow.

I don't think there is a way to get windows to change themes on it own. If there is a way I have not heard of it.

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't quite fit what I'm after. The themes and slideshows I'm referring to are the themes that have a series of desktop backgrounds that are rotated at regular intervals. One theme may have, say, 5 backgrounds and another may have 6. What I'd like to do is to combine these together to make a theme with 11 backgrounds or whatever. The config file behind these themes has blocks called slideshow, but all the entries are encoded. I haven't been able to track down the actual files of the slideshow images - if this was possible I could create my own theme. Is this just one of those 'locked' features in the RC version that will be more usable in the final version?
