From this page, you will be able to download the PbFpaper™ Desktop Wallpaper Updater. PbFpaper™ downloads the picture of the day from Photo By Fred and updates the subscriber's [winDoze] desktop wallpaper
with the new image. Subscriptions will be offered for several different
screen resolutions, and the program will allow you to record your favorite
selections, and redisplay them as your desktop background any time you want
to. Once I have the winDoze version running, I'll be porting PbFpaper to
FreeBSD and Linux, and to OS/X (at least) for Macintosh users.
Although it is copyrighted software, you will be able to download PbFpaper™ for free.
Among others, PbFpaper™ will offer the following options:
- a "today's photo" page which displays the title and any available
description for the current photo
- a review page which can be used to select previous images from those
that were offered during the subscription period
- photo information dialogs can be opened for any of the pictures on
the review or "prints" pages to see the photo title and description
- the option to update the winDoze startup wallpaper (displayed behind
the password prompt dialog)
- transparent icon label backgrounds, with icon label colors selected
automatically or to a specific color
- the ability to query print availability from LimitedEditionPhoto.com
- a Web-based Help system
- PbFpaper™ will work with any version of winDoze from
w98 onward which is not using ActiveDesktop
Version 2 of PbFpaper™ will also include:
- a favorites page which will allow you to organize your favorite
pictures for faster recall
- a screensaver to show your favorite photos in a slide show with a
variety of transitions that can be selected
The PbFpaper™ user interface is implemented as follows:
