Zonic Software has released SwapTop 1.0, a replacement Mac client for the WebShots desktop picture service that recently discontinued their own Mac client.
As we reported in May, Webshots, which makes photo wallpaper and screensavers, has stopped development for the Mac version of their desktop software. And a planned Mac OS X version is dead in the water. However, SwapTop lets Mac users set up a schedule to automatically download a random desktop picture each day and to search the WebShots image archive.
Unlike the discontinued WebShots Mac client, SwapTop runs natively on Mac OS X and fully supports multiple monitors, according to the folks at Zonic. It’s US$15 shareware. The latest version of SwapTop can be downloaded from Zonic’s Web site. It requires Mac OS 8.6 and CarbonLib 1.1, or later.
