Overall Review
To be really frank, TyphoonWALLPAPER does not have anything special about it. It just has a different user interface then window’s default Wallpaper manager. Wallpaper style options like Single Picture and Cycle Through Pictures are already present in default manager, however Stacked and Grid style can be considered new which represents images as a collage. Calendar option that TyphoonWALLPAPER has is nice to have along with a wallpaper. Another good thing is that you can download unlimited wallpapers from Typhoontools website. Give it a try and let us know your reviews. You can get TyphoonWallpaper from this link.
