Simple Python implementation with low resource overhead and a lot of elegant aesthetic touches and configurability.
It has so many sources, and I can configure it to save my favorites inside the Dropbox folder and have them synced between devices.
There is many options to choose as a source for your wallpapers. like Flickr etc.
Works as promised. Very slim application.
Excellent. Love it! Simple, intuitive and really great wallpaper sources.
This program has an unique approach. It allows you to apply various filters to change wallpapers beyond recognition and also lets you to download wallpapers from various sources and display additional info like time and date or quotes on the desktop. Very well done. works on opensuse with gnome
Still some rough edges to iron out, but it is really great and the best tool for the purpose I've so far found on Ubuntu.
