How to Rotate the Desktop Image on a Mac
Hey it is Tony from expertvillage.com okay we just showed you how to switch our desk top image picture for the back ground of the Mac Os X. you don't really have to stick with the same picture here if you don't want to. You could very easily just go back to the system preferences just like we did go to desk top, and you could actually have varies amounts of background images change. It basically changes with more then one folder so if you want to have about 30-40 different pictures all you got to do is put in one folder. You select a folder so if I select let say I select the plant ones which is not my favorite but that is alright. You just click on it once the folder and then you come down the very bottom where it says change picture. Make sure you check that box and boom. It will I will now have it set for every 5 seconds in random order. You could put it in the order that happens to be in, in your folder or you can select random order and it will just randomly go through pictures. Right now I have it selected for every 5 seconds as you could see it changes every 5 seconds. Hey how about that. You could also select it to do every minute, every 5 minutes or everyday. So hey. You put on your computer and your desk top image is different which is pretty cool. If you are going to do some high intensive computer processing type work I would not recommend you doing this because it will slow down your processor and it kind of takes up memory so you might not want to do this unless you are kind of letting chill out in the back ground and it could make a nice conversation piece.
