          From experience, I can say that Midwest turtles taste a little like chicken, beef, turkey, ham and dirt. It just depends on what part you are eating.

          I suspect that Microsoft has already filed an "IP" patent on that trivial "invention". Just imaging, an automatically updating desktop wallpaper drawn from sources around the globe via the Internet. Just where or where have I seen that before? Huh?

          Thanks for the Link, Monty Riley ...., or is it Steve Python?

            Lets see..... Linux will rotate your images....and even rotate images from the net, which might be disturbing once in a while.

            FF sits in your panel, you click it and it can appear full screen......with an image that you have set... true, you have to set it....

            Then you can "enter your search terms".

            Three steps....the same number of steps as Bing....but in a different order.... ok..........

            Hmmmmm

            thinking.......which to choose, .....which to choose.....

            OH....I can also use DuckDuckGo in FF....

            Ok....Ill use FF in the "normal" order rather than Bing in some other order! lol

            QUESTION: Does anybody really think that Google won't quickly have a "rotate images" function? lol

            Raise of hands now!! lol

              Or, maybe, use BackgroundImageBrowser.

                Or press alt+f2 and type "gg:search term" and hit enter (look mom, no mouse )

                To start searching, simply click on the Bing taskbar icon and the search bar will automatically appear at the center of your screen. Type what you’re looking for and the search results will appear in your default browser. You’re off and running in a matter of keystrokes.
                Hmm, are mouse clicks counted as keystrokes these days? I don't think I got that memo. I still find pressing alt+f2 quicker then clicking a taskbar icon (not to mention finding it in the bazillion other taskbar icons that windows seems to like collecting )

                On a side note I think I need to set the default browser to something other then qvim

                      You're welcome. The thing about that plugin is that it comes with 3-4 background images and the rest my be downloaded from their site... so, no real randomness or pleasant (turtle) surprises, you choose what goes in.

                              Only if you open a new empty tab, which I seldom do. Yes, pretty useless...
