Change Desktop is another application that will change your Desktop picture. It is written in Cocoa, completely free and the source code is included.

If pictures are chosen at random, ChangeDesktop can be configured to use all pictures before repeating any picture. Coalesces pictures from multiple folders so you don't have to move all of your pictures to one folder. Sub-folders are also searched. Will notice additions and removals to any folder without having to restart the application. iTunes integration allows desktop changes to be synced with iTunes track changes.

Thumbnail pictures are automatically filtered so they will not be displayed. This is particularly useful with iPhoto. If your system goes to sleep, the ChangeDesktop Server can be told to change the desktop picture when the system wakes up. Web Pics feature that allows you get pictures from any webserver and automatically add them to your collection.

Remote Access feature (Remote Access screenshot) that will allow anyone to view your current desktop picture from any web browser. Also included are the currently playing iTunes song and system statistics such as processor speed, memory usage, and uptime.

Remote Access also has the ability to take screenshots of your Desktop. Publish Desktop feature that allows the Server to automatically upload your desktop picture to any FTP server every time the desktop is changed. Includes a Menu Extra that allows you to launch ChangeDesktop or change the Desktop picture.Supports MacOS aliases. Fully compatible with Panther's Fast User Switching. Localized for French.
