Hi there.

I had set my wallpaper to rotate every 15 minutes. And then I found one I'd like to stick with.

So, I unchecked the rotate box and selected the wallpaper that I want to stay with.

And 15 minutes later it rotates.

I restarted, and it went three days without rotating. And today I turned on my Mac and 15 minutes later, it rotated again.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I'll give it a whirl.

I tried moving all of the wallpapers out of my folder but one, and now it's changing the way it shows the one wallpaper. It went from a centered small image to a stretched image. At the 15 minute mark. Weird.

Nope. At 15 minutes, it resized the picture again. This is very odd.
