Screen Saver

I have my screen saver set to display photos, which are in color, but after about 45 min. they are in black and white.  Why would these change?
 
Thanks.

    Haven't you noticed that each time the screen saver starts it alternates between color and black & white, full screen, partial screen, single photos, and multi-photos? That's the way it was designed. Does the same thing on mine.

    NP - just took me a bit to get the vista steps for how to do it. It offered me the chance to test the different settings myself...
