Download and installation went smoothly.
The program launched and changed my desktop background to beautiful scenery. A calendar appeared on the right. It also asked me to connect to the Internet to check for new editions. It found two new images which I chose to download and add to the list.
Now at the bottom of my desktop there was a transparent band with options to view copyright info, print, change image, show/hide calendar, notes and desktop icons, open list of images and app preferences. I chose the latter and saw a window with several available settings in Images tab: choose monitor, images to show, rate of selected images auto change (every 5/10/15/30 min/hourly/daily/weekly/monthly), image position on screen, thumbnail size. The Design tab allowed me to custom tailor Calendar and Quick Notes position on screen, change visibility and transparency, fonts and colors. The Options tab allows to configure desktop control band: show/hide icons, choose icon size and transparency.
The program also placed its icon in the tray with all necessary options available via right mouse click. There's an option to run at startup, which is checked by default.
After some exploring I found out you can add your own holidays and make entries to the Journal, which is useful, of course.
Interesting fact. Although the system requirements state Windows 7 as the minimum, I decided to try it on my legacy PC with XP and it was fully compatible. A small surprise.
Overall this program left a positive impression, but I couldn't help noticing a few drawbacks.
As all 12 default images are 1920x1280, I was having difficulty adjusting them to my non-standard screen resolution (16:9). The closest I could get to the desirable was by choosing the Center option under image position in Preferences, which cropped and centered the image to my desktop. Obviously, the devs should think of a better way of adjusting images to various screen resolutions. The default options do not really give you the best result.
Also, when I closed the program, it kept the latest used image on desktop. I'd rather had it returned to the wallpaper I was using before.
And I'm not sure why it keeps showing in Taskbar when running, shouldn't it be hidden?
After some playing around I decided to uninstall and it asked me if I wanted to keep its files (Calendar, Quick Note and Journal entries, images and settings). Uninstall also went quickly and smoothly, so there were no major issues with today's offered software.
