No-one else thinks this is pretty neat then?

I've just downloaded it, shame you can't just add a folder-full of pictures and it just sprinkles them randomly over the desktop, it'll be quite time consuming otherwise.

No, that's definitely pretty neat. I thought the company sounded familiar, they make the webcam software that a lot of people on this board like a lot. If I get sick of my current wallpaper I make give this a try.
