Happy Holidays

I’d like to wish all of my users a marvellous Christmas holiday and a happy new year. Looking into next year there should be some great new developments. AutoWallpaper will continue to be improved upon, and development of AutoExtract 4 will begin (Set Forget Extractor). Also, Asylum development will start back up. So here’s to… [Read More]

AutoWallpaper 5.1.2822 released

And relax 🙂 After a rather tumultuous few days after attempting to update the AutoWallpaper compiler and having a few serious problems occur, I can happily say that I have now corrected them. The problem with the updated compiler appears to be a newer version of the SQLite implementation, this seems to have made a lot of… [Read More]

Compiler update issues

It would appear that a number of database related alterations were made to the newest compiler I’m using that have surprised me. I believe I have corrected all of the category related issues in build 2806, but it does appear that there are a few more minor issues occurring. If you do update to 2806… [Read More]

AutoWallpaper 5.1.2722 released [updated]

As promised in my previous posting 5.1.2722 (Pre-Christmas edition) has been released. This is an optional update that fixes a few typos and brings the compiler up-to-date. Also, you may have noticed some additional features now available on this blog, these allow for a lot more flexibility. For starters I’ve added a poll (on the… [Read More]

Pre-Christmas updates

I have swapped over blog engines from my own to a more mainstream one, which gives me a lot more flexibility and control. This has obviously resulted in the feed location changing for my website, so please update any subscriptions and/or bookmarks you may have.

Christmas holidays are fast approaching and so I would like to get one last minor update for AutoWallpaper 5 out the door.

Blog update in progress

Just a quick note to say I am currently overhauling my blog and there may be a few inconsistencies while I work it all out. Please bear with me.

AutoWallpaper 5.1 released

It’s here, the big 5.1 update. This version adds quite a lot of new features and improvements. So, I’ll go through them all here: Mac Changes Version 5.1 adds quite a few improvements to the Mac Edition. The icon added next to the clock has been replaced with a new graphical icon, plus, the tray… [Read More]

AutoWallpaper 5, now with desktop slideshow support

A new update was released yesterday that enabled the particularly gorgeous wallpaper blending found in Windows 7, and this is only the start. Now when a wallpaper cycle occurs in AutoWallpaper 5 whilst running on Windows 7 it will attempt to trigger the blending of the previous and new wallpapers. This feature requires Aero to… [Read More]

Excitement overload, somethings coming

Just thought I'd make a rather sneaky blog posting to announce that there will be a very nice AutoWallpaper 5 update coming this weekend (all being well) for all you Windows 7 fans out there. I'm not going to tell you what this entails as yet but rest assured I had to do a little… [Read More]

Windows 7 up and running

As I mentioned in my previous post I planned to upgrade, or rather wipe the drive and install Windows 7 last weekend (24th Oct 2009) and as expected it went very smoothly. First off, before starting I copied my Vista partition to another drive (just in case) and backed up my documents and preferences. I… [Read More]
