Kuvva 1.1

Whatever you use your computer for, you spend a good deal of time looking at the desktop each day. It is possible that you have configured your desktop to display one of the images that are provided with Windows or OS X, or you may have taken the extra step of personalizing your desktop by adding a photo you have taken yourself. Kuvva enables you to take this customization further by providing you with a free new wallpaper every day of the week.

Available for both Mac and PC, this small app is linked to the Kuvva web site which is a growing repository of beautiful, inspiring and otherwise wonderful wallpapers. Each day of the week, one of these wallpapers is selected for you and automatically sent to your desktop for you to enjoy – there is no need to tinker with desktop settings as it is all taken care of for you.

You are not tied in to using the wallpaper of the way, as the small utility used to control your desktop image can be used to scroll through the rest of the online collection and choose something else you would prefer. If there are any wallpapers you particularly like, you can choose to ‘love’ them and they can then be accessed easily through your online account should you wish to reinstate them in the future.

If there is a particular artist whose work you like, you can opt to subscribe to their wallpaper stream so you will only receive image from that person. Note that in order to use Kavva you will need to sign up for a free account. You can do this is advance of downloading the app by paying a visit to http://kuvva.com, or you can wait until you have downloaded and installed the program and you will be provided with the opportunity to sign up for a new account from the log in screen.

A great way to not only get a new look for your computer each day, but also gain inspiration from images.
