As I said last post if I couldn’t find a reddit wallpaper downloading program I would make one. Well I found upboat (which is good) but with windows 7 (or display fusion) offering cycling desktop backgrounds every x minutes I thought I might write a more brute force downloader. So I did.
Reddit Wallpaper Grabber is essentially:
…a small program (77kb) that will grab wallpapers straight from their listings on reddit. With it you can download (in bulk) hundreds of the most upvoted wallpapers with the click of a button to a folder on your computer.
It’s only about 8 hours work, is unofficial and probably mildly buggy, but it works for me (and probably everyone on windows > 98.)
Features
- Save wallpapers in bulk, direct to a folder on your computer
- Get wallpapers from all the popular wallpaper reddit’s
- Sort by reddit sections (e.g. Whats Hot or Top of All Time)
- Include (or dont) NSFW Wallpapers
- Preview wallpapers before you download them
- Portable exe (No install needed, just runs when you open it)
- Its Free!
If you want to suggest feature requests/point out bugs then please do on the comments of this post. If you haven’t already – go ahead and download it.
