This is a Visual Studio 2010 Start Page that allows you to select a custom image for the background.

The image can be any image that it accessible using a URI.

In addition, you can set an RSS image feed so that you can view a different image every day.

 

This extension would not have been possible without Adrian Collier's excellent walk through on creating start pages for visula studio:

This project is based on the Custom Start Page Project Template that can be found here:

Please Note:

The default settings are currently incorrect. The page should default to using the daily Bing Image as the Start Page background. This image is retrieved using an RSS Image feed. However, the "Use XML Attribute" checkbox should be checked by default, but is not.
