Love this but was disappointed it wouldn't work on both of my monitors. :/ Any chance you could add support for dual monitors?

@punkscience This is something I'd love to add. At the moment the module we use to set wallpapers doesn't support multiple screens. However, you can manually set the second screen wallpaper once you've set the first screen. Wallpaper images are downloaded to your users "Pictures" directory.

@gilbitron @punkscience I do like how Wallcat allows me to set each display independent of the other. Definitely a feature request!

@ourielohayon @punkscience In "System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver" add the Splashify folder in your users "Pictures" directory. Then simple select the image.

Hey guys. Splashify was my Christmas side project this year. I wanted to build a desktop app using Electron. I also love beautiful desktop wallpapers. So using the Unsplash API to fetch stunning photos to use as desktop wallpapers seemed to make sense. Would love some feedback from the community. Let me know what you think!

@gilbitron Thank you! I will check it out. I have never heard of Electron and I will have to take a look at that too. :)

@gilbitron Thank you. I would like to find a way for my customers to have the files I sell installed onto their computer from a desktop app or desktop menu app. Right now my customers have to download each file package they buy and install each one. Can Electron help out in this? Thank you :)

@deysonortiz Electron is just a framework that allows you to build desktop apps using web technologies (e.g. HTML, Javascript, CSS etc.). You can build almost any kind of app you want using Electron, however you may need to hire a developer to help you out if you want to build something complex.

Nice, but I really love @leonspok 's Irvue app. You just set an update interval and configure the channels, and it takes care of the rest. The thing I like about this though is that its available for Windows too. Its very hard to find a good Windows app to set wallpapers. Do you have plans to add interval option to change wallpapers automatically?

@chakkaradeep @leonspok Thanks! I didn't have any plans to have wallpapers changing automatically but you should definitely raise a feature request issue for it over at https://github.com/gilbitron/Spl... to see if other people might also be interested.

I was using ArtPaper up until today. This made me think, "what's the point of using system resources to load a wallpaper when I run my Mac programs full screen all the time? I never see my desktop." That was the end of ArtPaper. Thanks!

@theleovogel if you connect to external display, especially a good one, you will enjoy these gorgeous wallpapers!

It would be great if we can schedule for changing the wallpaper. Besides I can't get your app with this error: "Version not found: latest"

@hamednz I'm afraid we don't support Linux distro's at the moment. macOS and Windows only.

@Gilbert: Nice project. Thank you! Any plan to add the unsplash FOLLOW new feature to somehow customized the wallpapers? I am not sure if Unsplash API would let you to pull data based on the users - not a programmer ;) .
