Hello!

I just wanted to share a little creation of mine. I used some art from the Diablo III fansite kit and the images that are available on the Diablo III site to create a Windows 7 theme pack.

The cool thing about this is that it's an RSS theme pack that's linked to a photoset on my flickr account. Any updates to the Diablo III photoset on flickr will automatically update on your computer.

I understand that there are those that do not have Windows 7 so I will provide a link to the Diablo III photoset on flickr, and if you like any of them you can feel free to use them for your wallpaper.

(WINDOWS XP UPDATE: Post #4 contains additional information to get rotating Diablo III wallpaper)

Original size is 1920x1200

To install the theme pack just click the theme pack file, the personalize window will open and you should be prompted with a message asking if you want to accept the RSS feed. Select the first option to automatically download the images. I'd also like to note that the RSS feed can be viewed in Internet Explorer under Feeds.

I'll be adding more wallpaper. My goal is to try to use all the images available on the Diablo III site as well as create any new wallpaper for any new images that become available.

I hope you enjoy it!

A little update:

I created an html page that you can download and use as a background for Windows XP. It functions similar to the way Windows 7 does. It will rotate the images every three minutes and check for new ones every fifteen minutes.

Heres the html file:

To use: Go to Display Properties -> Desktop and select the "Diablo III.html" file for your background image

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Enjoy!
