programatically changing windows desktop background

[Noah Spurrier]

The Win32 API call you need is "SystemParametersInfo", but that is
not exposed in the Python win32 extensions (as far as I can tell). 
This does not mean that you can't do it, but it isn't a no-brainer.

Sorry to be unhelpful.

Yours,
Noah
