Wallpaper changer

I have 3 or 4 wallpaper images that I like. Is there any program that will switch between the images every 10 minutes or so.

Blue_Gundam2002,

If you're using XP, I think there is something in the XP PowerToys that will allow you to do this. Here's the link:

XP PowerToys

If you're not running XP, you could try WebShots at:

If you have an ATI card you could use Hydravision and switch between up to 9 desktops although it won't do it automatically.

The power toy works great, I just wish I could make more frequent than every 15 minutes.
I used webshots once and I had to reinstall windows. I tried to uninstall it and when I rebooted windows wouldn't load.
