• Very Poor...Only works with Windows Media Player 9

  chajonshimFebruary 24, 2010

  Pros

  None. There are no Pros.

  Cons

  Only works with Windows Media Player 9. When I click the link to download, only WMP 11 is available from Microsoft. Booo! Couldn't even get it to work.

• Needs to be updated

  x-15a2August 27, 2009

  Pros

  The screen saver configuration is very nice.

  Cons

  1. Requires WMP version 9. My workstations have WMP version 11, but I'm constently nagged to get version 9. 2. Requires you to also select a background image. I like the screensaver options, but would rather just have a blank desktop background.

  Summary

  Installed, tried, uninstalled. Too bad.

• Good but...

  mike_kolbFebruary 15, 2006

  Pros

  I really like the program, have been looking for something that could change my desktop but I had to put all my pictures into one folder, program doesnt read sub folders. I get the same problem with the screensaver and since I have windows xp I dont know why its asking to install windows media player 9 since that version isnt for windows xp. The desktop changer is a little limited but it was what I was looking for. Other than that Im happy I downloaded the program and also like that its free! Good bang for your no buck:)

  Cons

  Screensaver asks to download windows media player 9 and the display properties box freezes, eventhough to my knowledge this version is not supported with windows xp. <p>The desktop changer program can not read sub folders so you will have to put all your backgrounds into one folder unorganized.

• Very good.

  allanbowdensmithFebruary 13, 2005

  Pros

  This program is really easy to install, use, and the results are pretty good. I'd rather use this than a normal screensaver, since I have a lot of vids on my computer. The wallpaper utility just makes your desktop that little bit more interesting.

  Cons

  A little too simplistic for my liking, a randomisation control would've been nice.
