Splendid Desktop Helper

Splendid Desktop Helper is a handy little desktop enhancement tool that makes your computer more fun! It helps you showcase cool screensavers and automatically switch up your wallpaper whenever you want.

Running Smoothly in the Background

This software quietly runs in the background, so it won't get in the way of your work. You can easily access its settings through the program’s icon located in the system tray. Now, I have to say, the configuration panel isn’t super flashy or user-friendly, which means you might need to spend some time figuring out how everything works.

Choose Your Images

With Splendid Desktop Helper, you can either download images from the internet or use your own photos. If you're going for online pictures, you can pick from cool categories like Cartoon, Animal, Game, and Car!

Create Your Slideshow

The slideshow feature is pretty neat! You can set it to change pictures after a specific time (in seconds), adjust how the photo is displayed (like tile, stretch, or center), and even set a custom time interval for when your wallpaper changes. Plus, there are options to show floating bubbles and even add some custom dynamic text!

Play Media Files

But wait, there’s more! You can make Splendid Desktop Helper play Flash movies (that’s SWF format), audio files like WAV and MP3, as well as video files such as AVI and MPEG. You have control over when to start the slideshow with a time delay (in minutes) and how long it runs. It even lets you tweak picture transparency or restore your default wallpaper if needed. Oh, and setting up a master password is also an option!

A Few Drawbacks

This app could really use a makeover when it comes to its interface; it would help users tweak their settings much easier. Also, keep in mind that image quality varies widely—from low-res to high-quality pics—when downloading from the web. Currently, there's no smooth way to import photos directly from your collection either. And unfortunately, you can't export those awesome slideshows into EXE or SCR formats for easy sharing.
