Flickr Wallpaper Changer

Your virtual workspace is special. This is why, ever since Windows 3.0, users were able to customize their desktop images. It’s no wonder that even today there are applications dedicated solely to the purpose of periodically changing your desktop’s appearance. After all, the last thing you want is to get so bored of your desktop that you start to hate it.

So today we’re going to take a look at a plugin called Flickr Wallpaper Changer. As its name suggests, this piece of software uses Flickr images in order to change your desktop background.

First of all, you must keep in mind that Flickr Wallpaper Changer is just a plugin for Wallpaper Slide Pro. First, you must install the program, then the plugin, and then configure the latter. Even though the whole installation process is pretty straightforward, you should still pay attention to the steps presented on the plugin’s page.

To use it, you should also have a Flickr account with some content on it. Flickr Wallpaper Changer can download and use photos from your albums and the groups you’re in, but it can also download your favorites and even the latest public photos. The changing of the background image is handled by Wallpaper Slide Pro, so return to the main program’s interface to adjust frequency, transition length, background color, and other parameters.

While Flickr Wallpaper Changer isn’t the most advanced program of its kind, and its installation process may seem like a chore to some, there’s no doubt that it does its job pretty well. It can download photos of medium, large, or original sizes, according to your preferences. You can also synchronize the plugin with Flickr feeds so it can remove files that are no longer present on the platform.
