Pic-a-POD overview

Pic-a-POD has been a popular utility for many years, downloading pictures of the day from a selection of sites and allowing you to set your desktop wallpaper to a specific picture, or to a random picture that can be changed at a chosen interval. Pic-a-POD 2 is a complete re-write of this app and is now available in the Mac App Store.

Pic-a-POD allows access to 8 different POD sites and you can get the PODs for any date back to 1st January 2009. A picture browser allows easy access to all your downloaded PODs, while a detailed view shows a larger image and more text information. View the pic on its original Web site, or share the link using email, Facebook, Twitter or Google+. If you set Pic-a-POD to change to a random desktop at intervals, you can also set it to include a picture from your iPhoto library occasionally. Pic-a-POD also allows for multiple monitors and multiple workspaces in Mission Control.

What’s new in version 2.0.7

This version 2.0 is way above version 1.xx... even if it's not free any longer, it's a 'must have" !

I wish there was a way to make this work on a MacBook with its native screen resolution of 1280x800, but I guess you need the right size image?
