Can someone please post the link to
a good close up current visible satellite shot of Ivan?
I would like to use it as a screensaver for my PC.
I would greatly appreciate it.

My favorite way is to collect the pics you want to use... Store them in My Pictures... and then set your screensaver to My Pictures... (Im on Win XP Pro - not sure if this option was available on earlier Win versions)...

Ah, okay....for some reason, I was thinking you meant the loop, not one shot.

If you are running XP you can put the pics in order in the folder "My Pictures" and it will automatically make a screensaver for you. I do this with family pictures all the time. In earlier Win versions, I had to use a program (don't remember the name but you might be able to find it at Tucows).
