Original description:
I like to have my photo collection on background of my computer. Currently I do this manually; but I think it would be nice to be able to use Shotwell as something of an "Active background", so that it will continually change every X minutes. Ideally, I would be able to easily rate/reject and select the minimum rating for images for when my computer is plugged into a projector.
This used to be quite easy for an X program to do; just render to the root window. I don't know how easy it is these days, might need something like an indicator application or some such to achieve.

I think what you're asking for is for Shotwell to rotate photos on your desktop wallpaper. As it turns out, Shotwell does have this feature: http://yorba.org/shotwell/help/background.html
I'm closing this ticket. If this isn't the feature you were asking about, please re-open and elaborate. Thanks!
