Is there a way to set up an RSS keyword feed that searches for multiple keywords? I mean that an image would need to have both keywords although I could also see a desire for turning up images that contain either one of two (or more) keyword(s). I just discovered the ability to use an RSS feed to stream to a screensaver and it's incredible. Forget the need to buy a digital photo frame! I've used the instructions in this post http://www.dgrin.com/showpost.php?p=708370&postcount=2 to set up the screensaver on my Mac and am using the following rss link to supply the content.

http://photo.srlarsen.com/hack/feed.mg?Type=userkeyword&NickName=srlarsen&Data=lacrosse&format=atom03&Size=X3Large&ImageCount=199 (hover, or click for the full [non-truncated] link)

The problem is that I'd love to be able to search for the keywords "lacrosse" and "select" or "lacrosse" and the name of a particular player. That way a parent could stream photos of just their child. I've tried to parse the language of the feeds but haven't had any success adding that second keyword.

Also, has anyone found a way to display RSS content through a screensaver on a PC?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Scott

Thanks affdigphotos, the Google Screensaver fits the bill for the PC perfectly. It's too bad that you can't seem to turn off the "image title" text that's superimposed over the images but that's a minor gripe for a great, free app. Thanks -Scott
