I really don't see what the developer had in mind when he wrote this ?
What does it add that the finder doesn't already do - and do rather well.
Namely being able to take a folder of wallpapers and change then at a predefine rate.
If this tool handled folders of files rather than just individual ones, then maybe...
But it doesn't even add a thumbnail to the recent/history so you don't what's what.
You can't import a folder of files ( You have to click on each file and then it's stored... )into the CM ?
Needs the capacity for favorite folder sets, image thumbnails... and since Apple made all contextual menu items spring from the bottom into their own sub menu - aren't all CM tools now dead ? It's just such a pain to navigate within them now.
