This project will get some major updates soon. I've started to rewrite the whole code from the beginning. It will be more object oriented and structured. After I've started to write this application, I only had some small feature in mind. To change my wallpapers, but with some new ideas there came some problems. The next release for the master branch will be something new and some nice features like backdrop profiles according to your current location.
When using an image list in Xfce to manage your wallpapers, which normally only changes when logging on, or manually switching from single image to image list. This application places a tray icon in your system tray and changes the wallpaper in given intervals. So you can enjoy a new random wallpaper e.g. every 15 minutes.
All features to be implemented to reach version 1.0

Create a image list in your xfdesktop configuration and add as many images as you like. When pyXfwpchange is started, it will read the path to your image list using the utility xfconf-query. Start pyXfwpchange and watch your wallpapers change.
