In the conf file for bgrot you set the time in seconds to display the ima= ges,=20 it then rotates through the image directory, picking them out at random,=20 changing at the set interval. The default display type is tiled, but that is easily changed in the conf= =20 file also, I set mine to centered, looks much better that way, for larger= =20 images.
