Very Poor...Only works with Windows Media Player 9
chajonshim- 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.
- Summary
Needs to be updated
x-15a2- 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.

mike_kolb- 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.
- Summary
Its good But its "f"ing w/ the display properties
Nerd 101- Pros
- good stuff for free
- Cons
- freezes the Display Properties Panel, all it says is windows media player 9. Won't take any commands from me.
- Summary
Very good.
allanbowdensmith- 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.
