WebWallpaper

Because of some neat programming skills, the application doesn’t even need to be installed on your computer for all features to work, which means you can carry it around on a USB flash drive to use on other computers as well. What’s more, system registries remain clean, since they’re not a dependency, but you do need to make sure Java Runtime Environment is installed.

If Java is one dependency, the other is an active Internet connection, because the way the application works is by connecting to a target website in order to periodically download images and automatically set them as your desktop background. The setup is pretty easy, with only a few fields that need to be filled in.

The visual design of the application is rather simplistic, by the overall arrangement of elements makes it easy for both beginners and experienced individuals to accommodate. Several tabs split settings accordingly, with the main one showing the list of pictures that are to be applied, with options to add, edit or remove pictures and sources, which can also be local.

In case the connection with the source website is established, you can set a time interval at which pictures are grabbed and applied as wallpaper. Unfortunately, there aren’t any options related to the layout of the picture, with with the application relying on system settings, such as pattern, wide, fit to screen, and others.

To sum it up, WebWallpaper comes in handy if you quickly get bored of your desktop background picture, but don’t really know what to change it to. You can use the application to use both online and offline content, with time values to determine how often these change. It could have used options to resize to fit to screen, but it’s worth a try overall.
