Display Random Wallpaper
Up to this point, we have showcased many beautiful wallpapers. Maybe you will get confused about what wallpaper should be used for your Desktop. Luckily, you can set your Mac to display random wallpaper with any interval of time.
The setting can be done inside System Preferences ▸ Desktop & Screen Saver ▸ Desktop. And the next step:
- Preparing a folder where you will put all wallpapers you want to rotate through
- Add that folder with the + button near bottom left hand corner of the pane
- Tick the options Change picture and Random order on the bottom pane
- Set the time interval for the wallpaper to change. Here I set it to 5 seconds because I've almost 500 wallpapers on my collection
