Dash Rendar Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi guys. I got bored the other night, so I wrote a quick Wallpaper Changer application for the Windows platform. It allows you to create a playlist of pictures, and then apply a wallpaper from that playlist sequentially or randomly. You can set it to run on startup, and it doesn't hog any resources (like many do). It's completely free. If you do try, please let me know what you think. http://www.just2good.co.uk/forum/uploads/dsfiles/img-2-1234564051.jpg P.S. Because it may be too much effort to register with my forum to download this, I've just uploaded it here... P.P.S In case you are interested in visiting the original thread where this was contributed (and hosted), you can find it here: http://www.just2good.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=5781&pid=29376.

AndrewOW Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Well done on this, if it works, but Mac OSX has been able to do this for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dash Rendar Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 What do you mean, "if it works?!" I'm not really sure I want to get drawn into an OSX debate over the contribution of some free software... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPRALOOPY Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Works ok! Does it just change every time the pc starts or does it change after a set time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Rendar Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 This version can only be configured to change when the PC starts, or when you log in. So, if you logoff and logon again, it will change. I was thinking about adding a timer feature, but decided against it. Maybe I'll put that in the next version.

AndyT Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks Dash. Nice job. That timer feature would be nice to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 I didn't realise Mac users had a sense of humour! Well, going on the record of my 'catalogue of weak jokes' (courtesy of RedM), some would doubt that I do indeed have a sense of humour. But at least I try.

Dash Rendar Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 Did anyone have to upgrade to .NET 3.5 to install this? I've got the target platform set to .NET 2.0 (and launch conditions), but one guy has just told me it's prompting him to upgrade to .NET 3.5 on his XP Home machine.
