I've always used Webshots and never had a problem with it, it does what it's supposed to do :) I don't know about supporting dual monitors though.
Here's some old code I wrote a while ago. Save as an html file and make that your background. Fill in the bgImages array with filenames of pictures to use as the background. window.setInterval("update()", 60000); is the line that schedules the next change in background. I'm pretty sure this won't persist through reboots. You'll have to modify it if you want it to not reset after reboots.
I'm sure there's a better way (maybe using Window Script Host).
Code:<html>
<head>
<title>Rotating Background</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
var index = 0;
var bgImages = ["PATHTOBACKGROUND1", "PATHTOBACKGROUND2"];
function update()
{
index++;
if (index == bgImages.length)
{
index = 0;
}
document.body.filters.item(0).apply();
document.body.background = bgImages[index];
document.body.filters.item(0).play();
}
window.setInterval("update()", 60000);
</script>
</head>
<body bgcolor="background" background="PATHTOINITIALBACKGROUND" style="filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Fade(Duration=1, Overlap=1.0);">
</body>
</html>
takes for the code!
so I just sustitute
if (index == bgImages.length)
with
if (index == pic1.bmp, pic2.bmp)
I tried that, set Active Desktop to the html file and a blue square appeared with nothing in it
No, change the lineQuote:

var bgImages = ["PATHTOBACKGROUND1", "PATHTOBACKGROUND2"];
to
var bgImages = ["pic1.bmp", "pic2.bmp"];
pic1.bmp and pic2.bmp should be in the same directory as the html file (since you gave a relative path). (If you want you can use absolute paths also.)
Also,
<body bgcolor="background" background="VortecSpace1.jpg" style="filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Fade(Duratio n=1, Overlap=1.0);">
Change VortecSpace1.jpg to an initial image.
You can have more than two pictures also.
Note: I haven't tested on anything other than XP (and that was many years ago).
oh yeah!!
it works! thanks :)
I'm going to be pesky... but, in the code can you 'strech' the wallpapers? ;)
Probably with style sheets (CSS), but off the top of my head I don't know (been a while for web stuff...) ;) There's a lot to be done to "fix" the code (off the top of my head, it appears I used quite a few deprecated tags, etc.).Quote:
