Wallpaper Engine thread

Just bought this, and quite enjoying it. I'll have to play around with making a wallpaper later.

Honest question: What's the merits of buying this over using, say, Photoshop or somethin'?

I don't think this and Photoshop have much to compare to be honest. The reason I use, and I'm sure the main reason for mostly everyone else is the fact the wallpapers support animation, sound, and web. So the wallpaper I'm using is of lain lying down sleeping, she wakes up for a moment and goes back to sleep. The specks in the background move downwards. I'm actually going to try and make a background out of a vocaloid video that I think would be good. 

tl;dr - Basically it's a live wallpaper for your desktop.

Whoa, for real? That's awesome! I was thinkin' it was just a fancy way to crop photos.

I'll deffo look into it if it's got a Linux version.
