   Windows Vista and 7 have the ability to use videos as desktop wallpaper (in .wmv, .mpeg, and .dream formats, I think)
   It would be great if JBS supported them.

   Some info here

   Unfortunately DreamScene can't be used programatically as far as I'm aware so there's no way for JBS to tell it to use a video as the background. I'll investigate this again for the next version and see if I can figure out a way to do it but my hopes aren't high I'm afraid.

   Someone has created a dream switcher here:

   But it seems to require Stardock's Deskscapes software so I don't know if it is comparable.

   Yeah, that's a separate application altogether - although it looks like Dream Manager would do exactly what you're looking for so I'd recommend you give it a try if you haven't already. Saves waiting for me to sort something out!

   It's not free :) and it doesn't have your montage modes for pictures- I'd be switching between the two programs quite a bit.

   I like your program better than using dreams, but dreams would be a nice addition if it was possible. If not, I'll cope :)
