Installation

This is my recommeded installation for Windows

1. Clone this repository to any <location> on your PC (HDD if present).
2. Right-click your desktop and select personalize.
3. Under the Backgrounds section, select <location>/IrisBackgrounds/images.
4. For a single monitor, set the mode to centre or fill. For multiple, use centre or fill for multiple images or span for a single across all screens. These settings appear to give the best results, though feel free to try other modes.
5. Set the refresh time to anything. I personally use 1 minute.
6. Enjoy exactly 225 (and counting) screenshots every time you see your desktop!

To upload your screenshots, you can:
