This is a Plasma Wallpaper plugin that lets you use scripts to control the wallpaper.
You can start using it by downloading the sample scripts (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=117118)
Writing your own scripts is very easy. You script only has to print the path to an image. Then that image will be used as the wallpaper. Check out the README for more info.
You can set a time to re-run the script in.
Please read the README for instructions on how to install.

@Shafqat Bhuiyan: Thanks for making this plugin, it would have taken me way longer to code this myself if I didn't have yours as inspiration/reference! :)

Unfortunately the pastebins you posted no longer exist. If you are still interested and have the patches with you, I would be happy to add them.
Thank you for your help.

Using a simple script like this:
[code]
#!/bin/bash
_imagedir=/home/user/pictures/desktops/
_image=${_imagedir}$(ls "$_imagedir" | shuf -n1)
feh --bg-max "$_image"
echo "$_image"
[/code]
You can set the X root image at the same time which fixes the psuedo-transparency issues in programs like gkrellm and conky.
P.S. It would be cool if you could pass arguments to the script, both manually in the "Script Path" and maybe automatically pass the Positioning type as well

I added an extra arguments field in the settings. You can also add the positioning/resize type in the arguments by using %R. More info is in the readme.
Thanks for your suggestions.

Thank you.
