# Animated Wallpapers
Automatically change Linux background images with the images in a particular folder using python. So you need python installed to use it. Its just a random script I wrote for myself.
# Installation
Download and install python from https://python.org
## Install Python Packages
```bash
pip install schedule
```# Usage
## Using the Python File
You can use it directly by running the `changewallpaper.py` or `changewallpaper.pyd` file.
```bash
python changewallpaper.py
```## Using the Bash Script
You can also use it by running the bash script `run.sh` from the command line.
```bash
source /path/to/animatedwallpapers/run.sh
```## Adding the script to startup processes
---
# Note
It only works in Linux and you need to have images in the `images/` folder.
It currently works with gnome and cinnamon.
