Looking for a screensaver software

Question

Looking for a screensaver software which allow me to configure a folder from which it will automatically take images to show as slides..

Windows XP has same functionality as built in but I need better transition effects.

I tried Webshots and it's excellent. The only problem is it's an AIR app and will not work in Windows XP as embedded.

Please give me a few suggestions. Free or commercial.
