bgcycler
A simple perl script that can cycle the X background image at timed intervals using Esetroot or ImageMagick. Supports recursive image finding, multiple directories, adjustable timer, cycling and random image selection, and scaling. note: it appears that if you have a nautilus managed desktop this will not work because nautilus draws it's own background.
