### Closing Notes
|
||
|
||
A unique and handy script, low on memory and can directly fetch images in an interval – like an hour. And make your desktop look [fresh and productive][4] all the time. If you do not like the wallpaper, you can simply run the script from the terminal again to cycle through.
