World View Wallpaper Launcher
Description from store

Stunning images from around the world, brought directly to your new tab page.

Features:
- Apps list: Convenient access to all of your Chrome apps. The list fades into the background when not in use.
- Custom text or clock: Include your own custom inspirational message front and center, see the current time, or keep it zen.
- Runs offline: enjoy it whether you're at home or traveling.
- Features gallery-quality photographs from around the world.
- Highly customizable: Show or hide your list of Chrome apps, change the size of the clock, and much more!
- Based on time: By default, it acts like a time zone clock, showing you photographs of locations around the world in their time zone. If you set it to use local timezone, you'll see photographs from around the world taken at the same time of day.

You can help support this project by using the "Amazon.com" button in the bottom right to do your Amazon shopping. If you do, a portion of your purchase will be donated to World View Wallpaper, at no extra cost to you.

Wish these stunning images could be your computer wallpaper? They can be! Get the Windows and Mac apps at http://worldviewwallpaper.com

It's too early to tell, I saw only 4 pictures so far and right now a refresh doesn't give me another picture like before!? The idea is great tough!

I really enjoy this chrome extension. It's nice to see the photograph change with the time of the day. The locations are awesome, especially the Pittsburgh image. Photography is great and just like the whole layout. I also downloaded the Desktop version for my Mac. It replaces your default wallpaper and just like this extension it changes through the day. I have had no issues with it and highly recommend it to anyone that enjoys great photography and who is looking for something different and unique.

I'm definitely a fan of the random mode... it's cool to see Jerusalem when you open one tab, then the Caribbean the next time.

I love having the views available through the day. I don't have a window near my cube... unless I run this program, and then I always have a great view that changes through the day.
