Publisher's Description:

SyncWall is quite a basic wallpaper changer with a special feature, it is the ability to synchronize wallpaper change between several workstations with a basic (and unsecured) client/server protocol. Each workstation must share the same pool of files, there is no FTP or Internet download. Another interesting feature is a simple multi monitor support. Because SyncWall is written with Qt, it runs on Windows and Linux (MacOSX isn't tested yet).
Current Features

Scheduling : you can change wallpaper at startup, by interval or at fixed time

Ability to use/define a « global » hotkey to change wallpaper manually.

Basic multimonitor support in order to share the wallpaper across screens

Ability to add some special effects (emboss, edge, blur, ...) to the displayed wallpaper.

Several resizing methods and background filling

Network synchronization of wallpaper change by defining a server and clients. Display parameters are shared across the network (same resizing type on all the desktops)

Supported files :SyncWall uses Qt plugins to load image, so by default it can read basic formats as BMP, PNG, JPG. You can add more formats if needed by using bridge plugins to the FreeImage or the Devil libraries.
For linux platform, the common windows managers are supported (Gnome, Gnome3, KDE3, KDE4, XFCE, ...).
Current Supported Plaforms
Windows XP, Vista, Seven (with provided installer)
Linux (with recompilation).
Known limitations
Syncwall has been tested on several platforms (XP, XP64, Seven x64, Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian) with Gnome2, Gnome3, KDE3 and KDE4 window managers. Currently for KDE4, you have to use a workaround to use syncwall by selecting the updated image file ($HOME/.SyncWall folder) in the plasma configuration and set to "center" the positionning parameter.
Multi monitor support has been tested only on windows platform.
Mac OSX will works with some corrections in the building files but the author hasn't the ability to test this configuration (Help wanted !!).
Thumbnail view isn't perfect yet.
Downloads
SyncWall is available on SourceForge in setup.exe for windows and source archive for other platforms (qmake and cmake configurations included).
