IDEA Random walk over desktop image
igors:
Finding images is not a problem
https://zulu.ssc.nasa.gov/mrsid/mrsid.pl
has the entire earth at suitable detail, Worldwind (if you could cash the images...)
Zooming in and out is of course a desirable feature.
Being able to get an image from the web would be interesting. I thought first that retreiving the image from a CD/DVD or hard drive would suffice.
igors:
Could be a screen saver too...

ExpressView Browser from Lizardtech:
http://www.lizardtech.com/download/dl_download.php?detail=geo_expressview_plugin&platform=win
will plug into a browser and allow navigation through MrSid and JPEG2000 images...
Lizardtech has a GeoViewer too that might be command line controlable.

I've been thinking about this, and i can't find a way to do it.
I thought that active desktop could be a good solution, but i can't find any sites with animations worth being part of a desktop. Also, for those to have enough quality, most probably they'd be too comsuming in terms of bandwidth :(

Unfortunatelly, all that looks like paid software, and i'm not exactly sure how it could help, since it wouldn't integrate neither with the background nor with the screensaver.
