By now I'm sure everyone knows how to turn folders into custom slideshow screensaver. If you don't, see this hint, which also includes references to two other screensaver hints. Here's one more trick.

Instead of creating a folder full of images or aliases to images, I took the lazy way and simply created an alias of the image folder itself. I renamed it and moved it, and it worked! What's special about this trick is that the screensaver is still an alias to the original folder. Any changes you make to that folder automatically update the screensaver.
