Sceen Savers (Full Screen)

I have a new monitor that is 21 inches and my screen savers do not fill the screen totally.
In Windows XP one had the ability to click "How big should photos be".....from smaller to larger scale was available to use. Also, one could select "Stretch all pictures". However I don't see these features in Windows 7.
Consequently as my screen savers pop up on the screen after 5 minutes they do not fill the screen totally, leaving large black borders on both sides.
I have looked everywhere to try to have my photos cover my whole monitor screen but to no avail.

Is there something I can do to correct this?
I have Windows 7 Home Edition.

Thank you

What size in pixels are the photos you are trying to use? Go to "settings" Have you go Classic selected? This will cause the borders you have. Change Classic to another theme, try Pan and Zoom

I use a folder of about 600 photos. Each photo is in the 1000 kb range.
I don't see any settings for "Classic". Where would this setting be found? It is not in my "personalization" setup for screen savers.

I think this is what Mitchell65 was referring to: Right-click on your Desktop, select Personalize, then Screen Savers. Once you've selected your Screen Saver, select Settings, and then when the Settings screen opens, down toward the bottom is a setting titled 'Theme.' Select: Pan and Zoom, (NOT Classic), and then press: Apply. This will enlarge all of your screen saver images and also pan them --- You can go back and adjust the speed of the panning and the order of the selection of your images, if you're using more than one at a time as screen savers.

People still use screen savers? As a suggestion, having the monitor go into powersave is better on your utility bill and for the monitor.

Anyway, what size(resolution) are the photos? Not data size...the pixel size as asked before.

I think a lot of people (like me) still use screen savers not because we need them, but because we enjoy having images we like on our screen when we're not using our computers.

Interesting. When I'm not using my computer (home, work, or laptop), I'm not at my computer or at my desk to see such images.
