Add supporting files :

In case your screen saver require other files, you can add them in last but one step. This will be copied to the computer where it installs.

Publishing Screensaver

Finally you can create a package of your screensaver which is give to you as a setup file. This setup file can be distributed to others who wish to install the screensaver.

Instant Storm also run a support forum which is full of resources in case you don’t find anything working. You can even find tips given by other users for creating screen saver. I would have loved if this software would have taken images also and created a screen saver out of it but since its more oriented towards flash based it does it job with excellence there.  So dont think just download Instant Storm application and create your own screensavers.
