Features

Really small size

BioniX package have only 1.5MB and contains 10 high quality wallpapers, few skins, a demo playlist, and documentation. The program itself have only 0.6MB. Using such a small program will not consume your computer resources.

BioniX Wallpaper supports JPG (JPEG, JFIF, JPE), GIF (static and animated), BMP, ICO, WMF, EMF image files.
Support for JPEG 2000 (J2K, JPC, JP2, J2C) and TGA will be added soon.

Embedded screen saver

If you are not on your computer, BioniX will continue to display your favorite images as screen saver. This embedded screen saver will automatically import all images from your last playlist, so you don't have to configure or interact with it.

Schedule Options

This program lets you set the time interval at which your desktop wallpaper will be changed. You can chose it between one second and 59 hours. Also, BioniX has "don't disturb user" mode (through "automatic shut down" option): images will be changed automatically when Windows starts, then the program will close without user intervention.

Play List

Like Winamp, Bionix Wallpaper gives you the possibility to gather images from all over the hard drive in one playlist, without changing their physical location. Also, you can make multiple thematic playlists and switch between them.

Playlist extension

BioniX gives to the saved playlists the extension BIO and associate itself to BIO files. This means that the wallpaper cycler will start automatically if you double click a BIO file.

Image Position Options

BioniX Wallpaper has, in addition to the well known tile / stretch / center functions, two new functions:
*smart stretch = if some of your pictures are bigger or smaller than your desktop size, BioniX will make them fit
*smart tile = if some of your pictures are tiny, BioniX will tile them.

Image cycling

All images from the playlist can be displayed in "shuffle" or "continuously" mode. BioniX will skip all invalid files (that don't exist any more in your computer or defect/corrupt). Also, like Winamp, BioniX Wallpaper cycler has playlist navigation, which permits you to go back and next through the images.

Active Desktop mode auto-detection
For Windows 98 users BioniX can automatically switch off your Active Desktop. This is recommended because Active Desktop is a very hungry memory feature of Windows. So, BioniX will change your desktop without passing through Active Desktop.

Drag and Drop

You can drag multiple images from your Windows Explorer or Total Commander in Bionix. This way the pictures will be added to the current playlist.

Skins

BioniX Wallpaper changer is skinable. You can download new skins, or you can create your own skins.

Installation

BioniX Wallpaper manager doesn't need an installer: just download, open the archive and run! It doesn't need DLLs or other external files. But for your convenience we included also an installer.
