I like the OS X Screensaver that shows off my pictures, but I want more effects. Is there anything that lets me randomize more effects? Something that could be a replacement for the default pictures screensaver?
For example, Keynote, and iPhoto slideshows let you choose all sorts of cool effects. I'd love to have these in my screensaver instead of always having the boring pan/zoom?
Anybody know of something?

You can create your own screensavers using Quartz Composer (part of the Developer tools) which allows you to use various different effects. It isn't the easiest app to get a grasp of, but it isn't tremendously difficult either. Take a look at the examples that come with it, change some of the settings to see what happens and you can probably develop your own pictures screensaver that is closer to what you want than the default version.

Yeah, I've seen that but nobody has one premade? For example a screensaver that let me "Randomize" all the effects seen in Apple's pages application, ripple, slide, cude, reflect there's nothing like this out there at all for mac?

All your postings belong to Macnn...
o, and I actually like the Red Pill screensaver, but I never use a screensaver.
This Quartz Composer is hocus pocus for me though...
