Automatically changing wallpapers on Ubuntu


I was  meant to have a good collection of wallpaper from my friend Satya & tried to put them all scrolling in my Ubuntu desktop, searching for a while for this kind of program which could automate the changing of wallpapers on a Ubuntu Machine. I finally did find the program tonight. It’s called wallch. Open the terminal and type or search it in synaptics.

$sudo apt-get install wallch
Now when the program the installed run it and add your images folder or certain random images you would like to cycle through on desktop. It’s pretty feature rich.
Pro’s Include :
    + Changing wallpaper choosing images randomly
    + Change wallpaper in random time (2-20min)
    + Live earth wallpaper which works according to your Time Format
    + Automatic settings for startup
