Veil 0.9

Desktop backgrounds aren't exactly important anymore. It's sad but true. Most people using computers nowadays rarely see their desktop if they're using it active enough. However, if you're the artsy type and want to impress folk, then you need to create a nice looking desktop. The default ones leave much to be desired, after all. And despite what most might think, a glance at the same wallpaper every single day might instill a sense of routine. If you want to shake up that routine, you might want to try Veil.

Veil's installation process is incredibly straightforward and easy. Upon bootup, you'll be greeted to a very basic wizard that guides you through the initial setup process for the program. As far as I can tell, this is a one-time thing. After that, you'll be greeted to an incredibly minimalist interface that's actually surprisingly difficult to navigate due to the fact that there are a lot of buttons that don't explain themselves at all. Once you get around to learning what each button does, however, you'll find that it's actually a very intuitive layout.

The playback controls let you either simply leave the app to switch wallpapers every single day or switch between them manually. There's also mobile device integration if you want, as each image will generate a QR code for easy transfer. Do note that some images may not be transferable as a source can't be identified, but it still works more than it doesn't. Overall, I can highly recommend Tweak.
