I use My Pics. Prem. for screensaver, but not all my pics show up

[Guest]

My computers screensaver is the My Pics. Premium, (I have also used the other
slideshow picture screensaver offered in the display menu. to try to remedy
this problem). I have about 3,000 pictures in my "My Pictures" folder,for
some reason, the program only uses the first 10 picture folders to cycle
through and leaves out the other 30...does anyone know if this is a glitch,
or if there is a setting I can change to fix this problem? I checked each of
the other folder's properties and there is no privacy box or lock box check
on the folders that aren't showing up, it is definitely the order of the
folders that is the problem.

Thanks

Does your app allow the use of more than one folder?
Have you checked the options in your app to see if their is a set amount of
pictures to use?
Have you checked the options/settings in Display properties > screensaver
to see if their is a set amount of pictures to use?
The "My picture slideshow" that comes with XP I believe only allows the use
of one folder.
