Gnome3 Desktop Wallpaper Auto Changer

gnome3-change-wallpaper.sh

Switches the wallpaper in Gnome3 periodically by utilizing cron

Limitations

Currently only serves images randomly from ~/Pictures/bing-wallpapers

I will update the script shortly to specify multiple sources and preserve order etc. This is the first release

Usage

Add to cron using a line similar to

• • • • • /home/matt/Gnome3-Auto-Wallpaper-Changer/gnome3-change-wallpaper.sh

This changes the wallpaper randomly from the folder ~/Pictures/bing-wallpapers

Bing Wallpaper Downloader bing-wallpaper-dl.sh

Downloads Bing Wallpapers periodically

This script was originally written by https://github.com/ktmud/bing-wallpaper

Usage

Add to cron using a line similar to 0 0 * * * /home/matt/Gnome3-Auto-Wallpaper-Changer/bing-wallpaper-dl.sh

This will run at midnight every night if you leave your machine on. I have mine set to download every 4 hrs as I often have it turned off over night.
