write or do you know of any program that will automatically change desktop wallpaper everytime a computer is booted up?

I'm planning to sell the very best of my images as desktop wallpaper. There could be up to 50 images per disc and there would be a part 1 & 2 = 100 images. Some people have been lucky enough to get images from me for free.

If you can write a program that will do this I'll give you or anybody else a cut per disc sold. Maybe they could be sold here.

Hi Mark,

It sounds like fun, but I "don't do Windows" so I can't help with this. Programming for Windows is very different from Unix programming, which is my area of expertise. If you were to ask for web development or some such, I'd be in a position to consider it. Sorry. :(

I think there are freeware packages out there that you can use to cycle through background pictures and such. You might check that out (maybe Gardenwife knows of some). If they are free you may be able to distribute them along with the CD-ROM.

Good luck!
dave

That's about what we've got here today - very hot, no wind, but that should change tonight with more rain and storms. A very odd year indeed!

Yep, that's what you had said on the phone the other day. From now on I will read your posts with an Irish accent. :)

LOL.

the program to change the desktop background images has been written by the wee man who helps me with my web sites. I didnt know he was this smart at a mere 14 years.
