Wallpaper Tray goes Panel Applet

Submitted by Anonymous George on Mon, 2005-06-27 14:04. GNOME

I released Wallpaper Tray about a year ago now. The idea was to manage my wallpaper collection, and allow me to display it easily on the Nautilus desktop.

However, it soon became apparent that many people didn't like the program, it was seen by some as an abuse of the Notification Area. From my point of view, i wrote it as a Notification Area program because the API appeared a lot easier to use. However, thanks to GTKmm and Boost I have been able to port the thing to the Gnome Panel over the past few weeks, so here is version 0.5.0.

It may well be a little rough around the edges as yet, but feel free to drop me an email if you manage to break anything.
