FreshBackMac For Mac

While the standard OS X wallpapers are certainly impressive, anyone can get tired of looking at the same background picture day after day. If you want to find others, however, it can be difficult to get a hold of high-quality images, especially if you wish to alternate between multiple wallpapers.

FreshBackMac is a handy utility that can help you out, as it brings high-resolution pictures from various sources on your desktop.

Every user has their own taste in wallpapers, and FreshBackMac ensures you have plenty of them to choose from. Each online source offers multiple categories, such as buildings, nature, people, places and so on.

When you select one of the available categories, a random wallpaper is instantly downloaded. If you are not happy with it, you can refresh the image manually at any time.

However, you also have the option of setting an auto-refresh interval, which causes the app to change the wallpaper automatically once every few minutes or hours.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to select multiple sources at once.

If a particular image has caught your eye, you can get more information about the author by following the URL provided by FreshBackMac. The wallpaper is also saved in your user folder, although it is a shame that newer files automatically overwrite existing ones.

Once FreshBackMac is installed, it can be found in your Mac’s menu bar. The app is very unobtrusive, and, if you also add it to your startup list, it integrates seamlessly into your OS. As an added bonus, it offers a useful feature that enables you to quickly hide all active windows and view the desktop.

FreshBackMac is a relatively straightforward application that is well suited for users who wish to have more variety when it comes to their wallpaper choices. It provides images from multiple sources, sorted into relevant categories, and can change your background automatically, on a preset interval.
