Pulse

Pulse is a cool app that jazzes up your desktop with a bunch of wallpapers from local folders or online sources. It runs quietly in the background, automatically downloading images from your chosen spots and setting them as your desktop wallpaper.

Customize Your Wallpaper Sources

You can easily tweak where Pulse gets its images by picking the websites you want from the Options window. Right now, it supports sites like Google Images, National Geographic, Wallbase, custom MediaRSS feeds, and even NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day collection!

Smart Image Downloads

This program can grab loads of images from those sites and swap them out for your wallpaper. You can even filter what gets downloaded based on size, color, or search terms! Just pick a source and hit the Settings button to set everything up just how you like it.

Automatic Cleanup

The images Pulse downloads are saved to your computer for a certain amount of time before they automatically get deleted. If you want to clear things out sooner or change where files get saved, that's easy too!

Using Your Own Images

If you've got pictures on your computer that you want to use as wallpaper, Pulse can handle that too! Just tell it where to find those images and which formats work.

Set Up Timed Changes

You can have Pulse switch your wallpaper when you start up your computer or set it on a timer. The timing options are super flexible—you can choose seconds, minutes, hours, or even days! Create new settings by giving them labels and descriptions like “sync aero glass color.”

User-Friendly Controls

Pulse makes it easy to control everything right from the system tray menu: change the picture, pause the timer, or block an image if you need to. Plus, you can have it launch with Windows so it's always ready to go. It will even stop working when another app is in full-screen mode and let you download images ahead of time!

If you're looking for a fun way to keep your desktop fresh with new wallpapers all the time, Pulse is definitely worth checking out!
