Default How to change the wallpaper on every startup automatically?


Guys, I have Win XP SP2. I have many wallpapers, but i do not want to manually change them.

Is there any way or any freeware small app., which would change or shuffle my wallpaper on every startup?

Use wallpaper Master. It is available as freeware as well as paid.
http://www.jamesgart.com/wallpaperchanger/

There are many others.
Nuonsoft Wallpaper Cycler www.nuonsoft.com

Just google with terms like "wallpaper cycler" or "wallpaper changer" and u will be tired with the results u get. I did prefer the above two due to their low system usage and ability to scan within subfolders.

Webshots are the worst programmes i came across in 2002 when i installed them and after one month my Win_me was doing all sh1t to me ... then i bought windows XP in dec.2003 and installed webshots again.. but the problem was there still hanging around... heavy sh1t... and now also webshots can never change .. so DONT INSTALL THEM...

Tried magnetic. But, I still prefer the 2 proggies mentioned above. Searching for a perfect proggy and might soon start making 1.

Found another one yesterday night. Smart Wallpaper Lite from http://www.ectosoft.com/smartwallpaperlite.htm

It is said to be a shareware but the latest version is a freeware as I cant find any nags nor a registration dialog

@ismart
How many have u tried fro them. There are loads of these utils. Try to post the best u have used.
