Version: Winwall 1.1.36
Pros: Winwall embodies simplicity. The program is simple. The readme, is simple. The name is simple.(Its almost amazing that it wasn't taken already by a larger program). Everything is kept small, simple and to the point. That is what I like about this program. Its the perfect program for dial-up and cable users to download considering that the file size(of the .zip archive) is small in my opinion. (Slightly above 400KB right? Even 28K users may not have a problem with that). It does it's job and does it right.
Cons: For some odd reason, the search function didn't work. I would recieve a runtime error every time I clicked the "Search" button. This may just be a problem with interaction between the software and my operating system or directories (you may not have this problem).Allthough this isn't a big problem for me, this may be a bigger problem to other users. The Search button is the first button on the menu, almost indicating that it is the most important one. For major wallpaper collectors who would like to simply select a folder for this program to get images from, this is an annoying problem. They would have to insert each picture in the program manually. Why do that when you can do it within just a few clicks? That would also help prove that all free and small programs are not as efficient as their large retail (maybe even expensive) products.
Because of that problem, I give this program a 3 isntead of a 4. Heck, to me, its almost worth a 5. I see no other problems and it does exactly what I wanted it to do. I'm not sure the larger programs of this same kind that require payment are much better than this, but that is only because I have never used them.

Version: Winwall 1.2.3
Pros: I chose this program over Change Mon Ecran because I have more than 1000 images, and Change Mon Ecran will not allow me to add more than 1000 to the list.
Cons: It takes an excessively long time to add new images to the list. If you have more than 1000 images it takes over 20 minutes to search for images to add to the list.
