Photo Desktop ReviewGreat Change... - Version: 1.5.2, 12/2/2006 10:14PM PST

from a boring desktop. I often change my desktop and was getting bored with all the different patterns, pictures and props. This way my desktop is personalized and I get to see the people I love all the time and out of the way of work and play.

I would like to note that it does support multiple monitors but when you plug in the other monitor it will change the size of the pictures to match both desktops. In other words, instead of keeping them the same size on the higher resolution monitor, it changes them to match the resolution of the lower resolution monitor even thought they are displayed on the higher resolution monitor. Sound strange? It is. My monitor settings have not changed but the pictures and the desktop background do. It isn't a critical thing. Just a note so the developer can look into it.

I still think it is a great program and my startup time is still fast.

Thanks!!

Photo Desktop ReviewDoes what it claims - Version: 1.5.2, 7/24/2006 12:43PM PST

... And that's good enough for me! I've often created desktop backgrounds with snapshots added in a "polaroid" style and this application does it quickly and easily.

The software is very low on resources and has not crashed out once. I love having the ability to update the images on a whim.
