jfty009260 Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I'm looking for a wallpaper changer that meets the following conditions:1. Highly configurable time intervals (seconds to days)2. Low memory usage3. Must use the actual images specified instead of using a dummy picture file to display (for quality purposes)So far, browsing through these forums, I've managed to find the following apps:1. WinWall (fulfills conditions 2 and 3) http://www.tucows.com/preview/3776052. ESCO Wallpaper Changer (fulfills conditions 1 and 2) http://egorov.ruslang.com/indexen.htmedit: I'm having problems with setting up ESCO Wallpaper Changer, since I can't make it automatically change wallpapers through the Windows Task Scheduler. Can someone guide please?Can anyone suggest any wallpaper changer that can fulfill all said conditions? Thanks. Link to comment
kinsemon Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 what is 'low memory usage' for you?windows xp powertoys wallpaper changer over at microsoft site runs at around 13 MB, lowest interval however is 15 min (max is 1 week), uses actual images/files in directory/folder you choose- e.g. x:...windowswebwallpaper http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&DisplayLang=en Link to comment
jfty009260 Posted January 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I already tried that thing, and I can say that the quality of the image it uses isn't quite good. I think it's displaying a dummy image instead of the actual images.Well, okay, I won't be so strict with the interval, since I usually set it to change each day.Low memory usage for me would be like 2~4k mem when the app is minimized.

Ojalord Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I've been using this one since an year or so. Free, and unnoticeably light too. The time interval though is minimum 1 min and maximum a day, But the quality of images is fine. Try it, maybe you'll like it, maybe not. Edit: Lol, very sorry...The link was sitting in my clipboard, just forgot to put it up here, :D:D http://wallpaperchanger.de/ Link to comment

Viper Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Are you running Vista? There's a wallpaper changer sidebar gadget that lets you pick a change interval between 5 seconds and 24 hours Link to comment
