4. Use the checkboxes by each image to select those that you wish to be in the Slideshow.

5. Use the Picture position dropdown to select how the image is to be displayed (Fill, Fit, Stretch, Tile or Center).

6. Use the Change picture every dropdown to select the interval that you wish the wallpaper to be changed to a different image (10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, or 1 day).

7. If you want the images to appear in a random order, check the Shuffle checkbox.

8. If you are using a laptop, check the When using battery power, pause the slide show to save power checkbox.
