I don't see the point of this. Can't you just select your own photo and choose "Use this as my Wallpaper" in Windows?

From the screenshot, I gather that it's meant for using collages of various images?

The download link links to a ".manifest" file, i guess that isn't a good sign.

yes, the downloaded is very small & looks like an XML file but it can be executed..
