Aphex's App of the Week - Week of 4/21/08

[__Desktoptopia__]

License: Freeware

Info: Desktoptopia is a FREE desktop background manager that automatically loads and displays designer desktops on your monitor, as often as you wish.[/i] - Text taken from Desktoptopia

My Take: Can you tell by my first two apps of the week that I like to customize? :) I came across this program while looking for some new wallpapers for my dual monitor mac setup. I typically spend some time each week browsing through the old favorite, InterfaceLift.com, but I found myself always looking for something new every few days (can be quite time consuming). Desktoptopia solved the problem for me, new random high quality wallpapers are downloaded at any interval you choose (even as often as every 5 minutes). You can rank wallpapers, pause the auto-update, or even reject certain ones so they never come back again. It also supports multiple monitors (different wallpapers for each screen, or the same) and it can even grab the correct resolution for each display independently. So far i've been very impressed with the program as its introduced me to a whole new array of wallpapers, without me having to do any browsing at all.
