CNET Editors' review
Is the Force not as strong as you want in your PC desktop? Maybe you need Star Wars ScreenThemes. It's a desktop wallpaper manager that displays a different high-resolution Star Wars image as often as every hour, automatically resizing it to your screen. The trial version comes with seven images, and many more image packs are available once you register. Star Wars ScreenThemes also comes with a slide-show screensaver, which displays your images along with musical accompaniment from one or more WAV, MIDI, or MP3 files you supply. A configurable desktop calendar rounds out the features. The program runs in the system tray and pops up with a right-click. It supports configurable hot-key commands and user ratings, so you can give your favorite images as much face time as you want. Extra image packs start at $4.50, and the quality is excellent. Jedi Knights, this is the wallpaper manager you're looking for.

Cons

"Trial version...Old Republic heavy...meh."
Version: Star Wars ScreenThemes 2.22.03
Pros
Some good quality pictures.
Cons
4 out of the 7 trial images are from the prequels. I wanted Star Wars...not Clone wars.
Summary
Couldn't you just make a better screensaver by saving Star Wars images from Photobucket and Google images, putting them in a folder and then using a photoviewing screen saver (like from Picasa or the one that probably came free with your computer) to run the images you like as your screensaver? I think you could. Why pay for this?

"Don't need an app with photos from the movies."
Version: Star Wars ScreenThemes 2.22.03
Pros
Nothing at all.
Cons
I don't think I'll ever find any.
Summary
This should have been more like excerpts from the video games where the characters actually move and speak.

"Good, not exactly free though"
Version: Star Wars ScreenThemes 2.22.03
Pros
Works great, and the daily rotating images are good for people who get bored with therir backgrounds. The ImagePacks that you buy afterwards are excellent quality, including some great Ralph McQuarrie art and matte paintings. Bulk discounts when you buy more than four Image Packs add value.
Cons
This is trialware, not freeware, and only comes with seven images. The pay-for-image packs are slightly over-priced and you have to buy them at least four at a time (about 18.00 for four image packs). And the installation and activation system ScreenThemes uses is beyond complicated and beyond annoying.
