Are you referring to a screen saver that uses your own pictures?

Well I will assume that is what you are referring to just in case someone searches for this. In your home folder(Places>Home Folder) create a new folder named 'Pictures' and in Linux capitalization matters, so Pictures, picTURES, and pictures are all different files. It needs to be named Pictures for it to work properly.

Anyway, then go to System>Preferences>Screensaver and choose the screen saver theme named: 'Pictures Folder' then click close. Enjoy

Best Regards,
