Change Opera Speed Dial background image automatically

Saturday, October 24, 2009 10:21:10 PM

, , , , , , ,

I have more than 500 beautiful wallpapers yes including lone tree and images in Hindu Gods & Goddesses photo album.

Changing Speed Dial background image is boring after several times and time consuming. So, I have added an option in Opera Launcher to change Speed Dial background image automatically with one of the images from specified directory after specified time interval.

Set time interval to 0 days, to see new Speed Dial background image after every Opera startup.

Change an option in Opera dialog automaticallyWeb page looks different in Opera?

Yes, it's D:\Documents and Settings\myusername\Mis documentos\Mis imágenes\Speed Dial

Tamil Sunday, November 1, 2009 3:10:43 PM

Image path with accents is saved correctly in OperaLauncher.ini but not in speeddial.ini sherlock
