Inappropriate?Hi Vipin,
If you right click on your desktop, go to More, then "Add a Photo Frame", you can specify an image source. The photoframe will then appear on the wall, and you're free to drag it anywhere you'd like.
Post a screenshot if you can't get things working and I'd be happy to help! -
Inappropriate?hey, thanks for the quick reply. I got that part, but if i choose directory and choose a picture, it just pops out a frame on my desktop, with no picture in it.
I've attached a screenshot.

Hi Vipin,
Gotcha. The problem is that it is expecting a folder, not a particular image file.
We will fix this in an upcoming release - but in the meantime, as a workaround, you can move the picture into a folder by itself, then point BumpTop to the folder and not directly to the image.
Sorry for the troubles! -
Inappropriate?No trouble at all. I just thought I was doing something wrong. Will look forward to the future fixes. In the meantime I'll do what you suggested.
Thanks
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?Hey, I just tried your solution and I encountered a problem. The photo is showing plainly as if I had just copied and pasted it there. I expected there to be a wooden frame around it or something.
I’m confused

Inappropriate?There's also another issue with the PhotoFrames which is connected to the one above.
For example I'd like to choose a continuously updated webcam picture from a webserver as the source for a PhotoFrame (in the format http://server.com/webcam.jpg ). I'd expect the PhotoFrame to from then on update webcam.jpg based on th PhotoFrame's update-rules.
I hope you'll consider this when updating the PhotoFrames.
This would also enable most users to see their local weather outside. They'd just have to add a local weathercam (if available) to a PhotoFrame.
