Add multi-monitor support options. What will these options look like? Same image on both screens (scaled as necessary), different images on each screen, solid color/gradient/pre-selected image on one screen, downloaded image on the other.

These are just some ideas.

Note to self: look into code for https://wallmaster.codeplex.com/. License is the same as Pulse, so may be a good source of code to re-use.

Getting some weird bugs on Windows 8.1:

I have set Wallpaper Position to "Fill", but every time Pulse is setting a new Wallpaper it is showing a centered position.

Allow users to setup a global hotkey to change the Windows Wallpaper to the next one.

Note to self: Look into using http://bloggablea.wordpress.com/2007/05/01/global-hotkeys-with-net/.

The code that randomizes which wallpaper will appear next does not appear to be very random. Should modify this to be better.

A pre-defined list of aspect ratio's for wallbase searching was added some time ago. In addition to the pre-defiend list we should add the custom aspect ratio option too.

Should we also add options to make it more like it is on wallbase where you can select multiple aspect ratios & resolutions?

Add an option to view wallpaper history, along with info about which provider was used to bring back any wallpaper.

The Ban function does not work for sites that do not use consistent URL's. This happens when the site uses a CDN that hosts the images where the server name can change.

To resolve this we should have the provider provide the name to add to the ban list. The provider already does the checking to see if an image should be removed. For Wallbase this would probably just the filename, or maybe w_filename.png, to make it unique.
