Actually the origin of this project from my object oriented programming language 2 ( C#) courses , I had to submit a project end at the of the course , At the very beginning while I was searching on internet I found this snippet on Github!

Project dependencies :

  • Project built on .Net 4.0 Client Profile on IDE Visual Studio 2012
  • Currently Desktoper is only connected to flickr.com
  • Once user search any interest/tag from desktoper , Initially desktoper request to flickr.com api and fetch 50 relevance pictures based on users screen resulation width.
  • If Blur checked , then the collected image url is posted to imageresizer.io and rest of blurring algorithm managed by them. :D
  • Please don't blame me I am pirate of flickr, you'll see a 'courtesy' checkbox bottom of the UI , if you check that then owner name will be placed on left most corner.
  • The technique behind setting up the wallpaper on windows machine is to editing registry
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop a wallaper key is the reason for this. See details implementation

Todo List

  • Automatic change wallpaper within some interval
