Adding more screensavers to xfce4-screensaver?

How would I go about doing this?

xscreensaver comes with some really nice ones that I'd like to use in xfce4's version instead, if possible.

Hello and welcome.

xscreensaver screensavers can be used by xfce4-screensaver. See here for information. Basically, you need to create a .desktop file for every screensaver that you want xfce4-screensaver to recognize.
