colinbruce.com - Random Backdrop Generator

Backdrop Generator is a program that I have worked on since I first started coding in Basic.

It is essentially a program that runs at startup to change the background of the user to a random image from a pre-defined list.
The first version was written for Windows 98 and changed the image in DOS before windows started. It renamed images from the list to be called backdrop.bmp in the windows folder and was seamless!
Later versions started using the registry and API calls to set the backdrop but the interface still needed some work

The current version is the most user friendly to date, if I say so myself, and is available from the download tab above, or here.
