Desktop Picture not persist across reboot

He's using Tiger, but he wants an "on demand" randomization. As I noted, the script does this, but reverts to the (N-1) desktop picture on reboot.
The Pref Pane must know where the cached copy or whatever is, as using the Pref Pane produces the desired behavior. However that would not work for choosing a random picture.


Sincerely,

R. Harold Holbrook Jr., M.D.

In Tiger, the "Change picture" menu offers lots of options, including
"when logging in", "when waking from sleep", and "every day".

I take it he's not using Tiger?

I had a question from an associate who wanted to have a random
desktop picture, but not on a timed change.
