Is there such a photo app/widget???

I'm looking for a photo widget that will allow me to see a 4X4 photo on one of my homescreens from a selected folder and then randomly change pictures from that folder every 5 minutes or so. I know that is easy to find BUT what I also would love to have, but can't seem to find anywhere, is for it to allow me to tap on the picture on the homescreen and rather than just bringing me to the picture, it will allow me to swipe and see all the other pictures in that folder.

Is there such a thing? :confused:
 
The app is called desktop visualizer.
Download the app install
Set a widget on your screen for 4x4
choose the picture you want for it
and choose under app to open to be open folder then select your folder

Thanks! I have desktop visualizer, but does that just mean I'll have a 4X4 picture on my homescreen that will never change (unless I manually change it) and when I click on that stagnant picture I will be brought to my picture folder? If so, I'd like to have both worlds. Both an ever-changing picture on my homescreen and whenever I click on the picture, it will bring me to my picture folder. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks again!

Yeah, two picture frame apps. First off get 'Photo Gallery Widget'...

Photo Gallery Widget - Android app on AppBrain

... for your slideshow. Then on another home screen (if you've run out just get 'Go Launcher'.... up to 30 home screens) put the app mentioned above to flip through.

That's pretty cool, I didn't know that one was out there. So you can just flip through the pics right there in your picture frame with that widget?

Thanks. I tried and I'm currently using Photo Gallery Widget, but rather than having to click on the picture and then click next, I'd much prefer to click on the picture and it brings me into my picture folder so I can look at or show all the pictures with pinch to zoom etc. Unless I'm missing something, all I can do with PGW is view the current picture and pinch to zoom.

Thanks. I tried that, but it doesn't do what I want. Actually when I click on the picture in the widget I find it jumps 3 or 4 pictures each time and there's no way to get into the folder (besides creating a picture folder on my homescreen).

Thanks again!

Still looking...............
