Just for information, I bought and installed it from SDCentral.
Version 1.09a[b].002 doesn't change my wallpapers. Version 1.00a.002 works fine.
WinXP SP1.

In fact, it removes my current wallpaper but does not put the ND's ones. It let a solid color as background. Strange as the wallpapers are present in the ND installation folder. I can provide any information you need (logs, more info, config, etc...)
(sorry, was not able to edit my previous post. Where did the edit button go??)

I purchased natural desktop and I have downloaded the last version via SC.

However, two issues:

1) the wallpaper doesn't change when Windows starts. It takes some time to change it

2) in today panel, my current time is one hour ahead then my system time

3) it'll be nice to have an option to show the temperature in the main window (the one with animation...)

4) it'll be nice to have a pause button to pause the animation (avoid CPU usage)

5) In two days I saw just three wallpapers... It'll be nice to have an option to choose the theme: forest, city, beach...

6)the forecast panel could show the images (clouds, sun, rain...) not only the percentage of rain...

7) it'll be nice to have an option to send ND to system tray (notification area), hiding it completely...

8) it'll be nice to have a button to force change the wallpaper...

Gallus, given the time you posted, I think you have the 1.10 that I updated today. Some quick comments:

1. I believe its waiting to set the wallpaper until the end of it initilizing and figuring out "where" it thinks it is. Especially at boot, with other stuff competing for time, this will take a bit longer to settle out. Does it change it eventually?

2. What timezone?

3+, we'll see what the future holds.

In terms of #7, that's something that would need adding to DesktopX Pro, in terms of an option to "minimize everything to systray" action. Don't know if we want to add support for that.

Hi Nakor!

You're fast!

I updated ND right after post... However, SC says I have 1.10 and ND's about says 1.9a... I think I will download ND again...

1. I have started my computer 5 times since I purchased ND. Sometimes it takes more than 2 hours to change. I think it changes just when the new period of the day starts, but not if you start the computer during the current one...

2. My time zone is -3

3+. Alright!

Nakor,

1. I have restart my PC twice since I updated to version 1.10x. Now ND changes the wallpaper as it should do... No two hours delay. I hope ND will work tomorrow morning too...

The AboutBox also says 1.09a for me with my 1.10 version. Am I really running the 1.10 one??
Moreover, the sound settings are never saved and are always reset to 50% when rebooting.
Please help me for the wallpaper problem. I tried unloading WindowBlinds but the problem doesn't come from here and it was working with the 1.00
Thanks in advance

Ah, the About box. I forgot that was coded into the EXE. I'll have to tweak that.

Today, when I started my PC, the wallpaper was the last night one. So, in fact, it didn't changed to the daylight one at startup...

The sound ins right, but the wallpaper still didn't change correctly.

Other problems with my 1.10/1.09a version.
Even if the Today screen says Cloudy, there is a bright sun on the lower right of the panel.
It seems the weather is not updated as the last connection says 28/09/2004. My firewall shows taht the application tries to connect to the localhost. Don't think it'll be able to get the weather from here!!
In the custom panel, in the Map section, even if I enter my location (Monte-Carlo, Monaco) the "radar" shows the initial Canton location.
As said in a lot of previous post, I have problem with the wallpapers not being set, even if I set it to Custom, putting the Wallpapers provided by ND. One distinction, if it is set to Custom, it let my initial wallpaper, if I set to Dynamic, it removes my wallpaper but do not set the ND wallpapers.
