    Is there any way to have Windows rotate my desktop every day? For instance, could I have a load of desktop pictures in a folder and have it choose a random picture every day?

    Or does anyone know of a program that does that?

    Thanks. Not liking the toolbar/spyware stuff on it but seems to do the job.

    Do you mind me asking you why you'd even want one?
    I mean how much time you actually spend looking at your wallpaper?
    When i'm using my computer i can't see my wallpaper.
    When i'm not using my computer i can't see my wallpaper.
    I don't even use a wallpaper for those exact reasons.
    I'm just curious.

    You're right obviously. When using a computer you can't see the wallpaper. But I came across a website featuring really beautiful aerial photography from various places in the world, so now when I turn the computer on first thing in the morning I'm reminded of how pretty the world is. You need something like that when you live in dreary old Dublin ;)

    I suppose it's the same as a calendar in that way except that the picture will change every day instead of every month.

    plus, it gets rid of the dreary blue default....which reminds me...

    When you put it like that it makes sense.
    But i still won't bother with one myself. :)

    You're witty. The way you used that picture as if nobody had seen it before was just brilliant :)

    http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com/yann2/index.php - There ya go. Click on the Earth from above link obviously and you can choose from the dropdown menu what country you'd like to see. Scroll down to the bottom of each page for the wallpaper.

    I especially like this one - http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com/yann2/GenererFond.php?format=1024x768&reference=251&pais=Chili&lang=en
