Multiple sizes for collages, and optional borders !

v1.3 allows you to choose the size of pictures for the collages and also if you want borders between the photos. Enjoy!

Great app man, thanks for spending the time on it! Quick suggestion? If you could bring out a mod that'd just modify the desktop image daily, using today's photograph off the Flickr Blog, it'd be brilliant! Just a thought.

Getting Application Failed to Initialize error either when downloading and then executing or running directly ... Perhaps an OS issue?

Great application, but its not saving my settings: taglist and account, collage etc.

Also a feature to add is to pull photo's by the Photo Taken Date or an indicator if the date is today.

Unable to find dll error, probably an issue with my laptop...I think it was msoree.dll....anyway I'll try on my desktop later..

Hope you don't mind a couple of "Wouldn't it be nice if"s

1: Option to start automatically
2: Option to save settings

cheers

Oops, I see cold chilli already asked for save settings.

Great work -- a few comments:

1 - I like the simplicity, and that it doesn't need to run as a service or have any sort of weird installation.

2 - Is there any way to put borders on odd-sized photos so that they don't stretch to fill the monitor? Some show up looking kinda weird.

3 - How can I get it to save settings? I seem to have to reconfigure every time I start it up.

Thanks!

I really love this app. Great way to share your pics w/ friends and familiy.

One q: Where are the downloaded images stored? How big is the cache? Are the images deleted after being displayed?

One suggestion: don't expand portrait pictures to cover all teh screen, instead I'd leave black strips on either side. Also saving would be GREAT.

Okay folks:

1. Settings are now saved in v1.4

2. A workaround for stretching is to open Display Properties (right click the desktop) Then select the Desktop tab, and then change the Position dropdown to 'Center'. I'll look to making that an option in the next release.

3. Files are not cached. The next picture downloaded replaces the old one.

4. Flickr only sends 500 at a time in response to queries, I'll look to grab the entire photo list in the next ver.
