Post by slowly »

I have downloaded some of the additional Galleries, but there are no instructions to install them.

Thanks for the help, but windows do not know the file extension, so it cannot open it.

Am I installing the wrong thing. I have installed My Picture 3D Album. .

My Picture 3D Album works well.

I uninstalled and Re-installed with the same result.

I am running Windows xp Service Pack 2.

How do other people get to use these new galleries?

Is there a work-a-round? Can it be installed manually?

I realize that My Picture 3D Album does appear in th "open with" list.

Hm.. Looks really unusual...
I have just tried hard to reproduce this bug on different computers, but haven't succeeded. So if you have any additional details, please report.
And now you can add new galleries in following way.
Open Start > Programs > My Pictures 3D > My Pictures 3D ScreenSaver > Configure ScreenSaver > open Installed Galleries tab > click Install From Disk button > and open unpacked gallery file.

Thanks Maxim.

I finally got the Galleries installed be fore your post, but almost as you stated, but there is still a major problem.

After a while I realized the the problem is with the My Picture 3D Screensaver. I have not been able to get it to work.

This is what I did. After installing the FULL package, I uninstalled the My Picture 3D Screensaver.

I then Downloaded the STANDALONE My Picture 3D Screensaver and installed.

At the end of the install I (Ticked) Launch My Picture 3D Screesaver Configure Program.

The Program starts and I am able to Install the Galleris as Maxim stated.

The problem is that after I close the program, it will not start again.

If I want to install additional Galleries I have to re-install My Picture 3D Screensaver each time.

The ERROR message says " Windows cannot find 'C:\windows\MYPIC~1.scr. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the start button, and then click search'

The Program is looking for a file in the WINDOWS folder, but My Picture 3D is installed in the PROGRAM FILES Folder.
