Desktoptopia is a desktop background manager for the mac that automatically loads and displays designer desktops on your monitor, as often as you wish.
Free, great desktop pictures, but crashes a bit too much to leave running all the time. I tend to launch it when I want a new desktop, then quit it so it doesn't have a chance to freeze up.
Half the fun of walls is finding them... And this seems like the guy is ripping off the artists, though he does credit them, which is something, but they don't get any kind of financial payoff from the profits for this app, soooo...
Besides, some of the best walls I've gotten lately have come from Flickr photostreams.
This is ridiculous! Just download a bunch of wallpapers you like, put them in a folder, go to System Preferences/Desktop & Screen Saver, select that folder, make sure "Change picture every X minutes" is ticked, and lo!
All the text you write on iusethis is formatted with Textile. For instance
you can type *bold* to produce bold. Check out this textile
reference for more info.
Opinions:
BTW, I just wrote this script if someone want to save the current Desktop (like me).
tell application "Finder"
set wp to get desktop picture
duplicate wp to desktop
end tell
It just copy the file to your Desktop!
Hugs!

Digging it now that it's free, and really seeing the value in it.
MAIN PROBLEM: crashes very often. Appears that the problem lies with APE, but I have no way to exclude desktoptopia, since it's a pref pane. HELP!
Love that it's free. Love the pictures. love how it repeats ones I liked once in a while. Only problem is since I installed it GimmeSomeTune crashes.
Woot! The latest version is no longer shareware!

I recommend the free (donationware) Desktopia over this -- how much more do you need?
And then visit Adam Betts and David Lantham, among others, for wallpapers....
I think it's pretty sweet. I like not having to search through all the crappy desktops to find ones I like.
I wish iusethis had the option to bury apps, much like digg.
