Allow daily background change from multiple local images #1121
Description
Microsoft Edge’s theme background feature is visually appealing but limited by its current implementation. Built in backgrounds are raster based and low resolution, especially noticeable on high-DPI displays. While uploading a custom background allows better quality, only one image may be used, and it disables the "Change daily" toggle.
Problem
Low-resolution raster backgrounds appear pixelated.
Uploading a custom image improves quality but disables daily rotation.
Users cannot upload multiple images to rotate among them.
Proposed Solution
Allow users to upload multiple custom images or a folder.
Enable the “Change daily” feature to rotate among user-supplied images.
Consider higher-res raster or vector-based formats to enhance visual clarity.
Benefits
Personalization: Users can curate their own slideshow-style backgrounds.
Enhanced visuals, especially on high-resolution displays.
Context
I understand this repo may not directly control the feature implementation, but this issue is proposed here for community discussion and tracking since the Edge codebase isn't fully open-source.
