I'm not sure where to post this so hope it belongs here.

In switching from a PC to a Mac I'm losing my beloved John's Desktop Switcher. For those of you who don't know, it allows one to specify galleries in one's account to rotate through as desktops.

I can find wallpaper or desktop switchers on the PC that will rotate thru all smugmug pictures that satisfy a keyword, but nothing that I can point to just my galleries.

Does anyone know of wallpaper/desktop switcher for the Mac that does this?

Thanks!

SmugMug supports feeds so you should be able to use this trick without having to install any other apps.
Feeds are usually available at the bottom of a SmugMug page - just look for the "available feeds" button, for example when browsing a gallery or keyword gallery.

This tip will work...until you upgrade to OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. The RSS Visualizer is not in the list on my 10.8 installation, and that is apparently because Apple removed it. On Mountain Lion you will need to use this tip from the same site.
Restore Apple’s RSS Visualizer Screensaver To Mountain Lion

If you have not bought your Mac yet, you will have no choice but to have Mountain Lion because you can't install versions of OS X that are older than the system build that Mac model shipped with.

Just bought my Mac. Fortunately I have friends who have older versions of the OS. Thanks!
