Fondo is a simple program that changes the background image on Windows. You can specify the number of minutes each image is shown.

The project was written using C++/MFC and Visual Studio 2008. I wrote it to learn how to use ImageMagick and become familiar with VS2008.

You can see in this program how to:

Create a tray-based app Run a background thread in an MFC application Use ImageMagick to convert an image from JPEG to BMP

FutureThe initial version simply loads jpegs from a particular directory. I plan to expand it to get images from an RSS feed as well.
