The program works quite well, and just has one icon. It essentially lets you choose a folder that has your pictures, and lets you choose the timed or random intervals of what your wall paper will be.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/wpchanger/

It is posted on Sourceforge, which I think does that mean it is open source. It has the GNU General Public License (GPL) as it's license.

I am not sure if it is the smallest file size, but it is one that works.

Batch File Shortcut To USB With Different Drive Letters

Submitted by SpeedyGuitarMan on May 20, 2008 - 3:38am

Hey guys

Im working on creating a batch file to open my USB drive whenever i run it.
I dont want it to run AUTOMATICALLY as soon as i stick my usb in though.

I was thinking along the lines of the name of the USB.
So if i had named my USB "SpeedyUSB" it can open it.

I have some code so far that will open a certain drive letter if that drive letter is in use, this is my code:

%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe "E:\"

This opens E:\ in explorer (not Internet Explorer, just a normal window like My Music etc)
