Wallpaper Tray

Wallpaper Tray is a utility for the Gnome Desktop Panel. You add the applet to your panel, and use it to manage and display your wallpaper collection.

From here on in, I won't be touching packages, seeing as the program seems to live in distro specific repos now anyway, yay.

The Applet lets you add directories, wallpapers are then randomly selected at login or at a given interval. You can also search your wallpaper collection, and delete wallpapers you don't like anymore.

Wallpaper Tray, as the name suggests, used to be live in the Notification Area. The Notification Area was never really meant for programs such as this, so the latest release uses the Gnome Panel. The last of 0.4.x series is still available however, for those that would rather stick with this way of working.

Note: on Fedora and SuSE, do ./configure --prefix="/usr" --sysconfdir="/etc"
Note: source is now under SVN, https://wp-tray.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wp-tray/
