1st compiled release.

I am happy with it so I release it for those too lazy to build something in python.
Like you gata be REALLY lazy for that!

Installation

  1. Download the webImagesSS.scr below.
  2. Copy it to C:\windows\system32\

Configuration

config.json is located in C:\Users\<your user name>\webImagesSS\config.json.

URLs can be configured in the above json.

If the json does not exist, preview the screen saver in the Windows screen saver dialog box at least once.

Settings in the Windows screen saver dialog box will first prompt for URLs, comma separated (no space).
Then will ask you for the refresh interval in seconds.

Though, it may be easier just to edit the config.json created.

Defaults on this release

Videogame and Halloween wallpapers, 5 minute refresh.
