The repository of car images and descriptions is available on MSB site and accessible with MyScreenSaver AWC or MyScreenSaver Lite AWC (both come with MSB 2.0) from the Load Image Sets dialog. The repository includes samples of all major car makes packaged into MSS files.

MSB provides collections of car images grouped by make and year. When the program is installed there are a few collections that come with installation. More collections are downloadable with MyScreenSaver AWC utility. You can access collections that are already downloaded by making right-click on MSB's system tray icon and selecting Explorer Images Folder. To browse images you can use MSS File Viewer program that browses images in a selected collection and shows car specification data.

MSB Wizard enables you to make screensaver starting from one or more images (JPG or GIF), or from a single MSS file. There are three steps that you follow with MSB Wizard: the first two serve to indicate the location of source images or MSS file and organize images, and the third one serves to set build options. When you click Finish, MSB Wizard builds screensaver and opens the folder where the setup program was stored. You can test the setup immediately by double-click on its file. You can also use MSB Wizard to create new MSS file or edit an existing MSS file without making a screensaver.

A convenient way to run screensaver is to double-click MyScreenSaver AWC's icon located in the system tray area of Windows desktop. The icon also provides an easy access to MyScreenSaver AWC configuration utility that is activated with from right-click menu, and to other MSB components.

To facilitate protection of your working environment when you leave computer, MSB includes a handy option to lock desktop of your computer. For example you can press F6 to lock desktop. When back, you can unlock desktop with unlock shortcut entering a password into login window.

To diversify visual appearance MSB 2.0 includes different login skins. You can set a login skin in the Login Skins dialog called from the Security tab of MyScreenSaver AWC.

The Car Updates Window shows new car collection updates from the MSB site. The feature is activated from MyScreenSaver AWC's menu: select Updates menu, then "Show Updates Info".

These car collections, in fact, enable you to save money (sometimes a lot I think) 'cause you have your buying options at your fingertips and keep informed with updates. Thanks a lot.

Nice choice for a software tool that makes possible to feel like a visitor at the latest World Auto Salon. And I like the style!
