Add support for Plasmashell (KDE Plasma)

I really love the idea of this tool. It'd be great if you supported plasmashell.

ksetwallpaper from https://gitlab.com/RaitaroH/KDE-Terminal-Wallpaper-Changer works as a script to change your wallpaper so that might be useful.

Bug using ID

the application is a nice tools but is lacking a way to restore the configuration or/and there's a bug.

I checked all the parameters that the application allows since I could found way to "preserve" I decide to run

it looks like anything that is in the cache will not be used again

Getting "IndexError: list index out of range" when using feh

If I run QuickWall without arguments it works showing just a couple Gtk warnings which I don't think are related to QuickWall on its own. I'm on Linux Mint 19.2 with Cinnamon. Here's the output using feh:

➜  ~ QuickWall --setter feh

The warnings shown after the wallpaper is set just by running QuickWall:

QuickWall expects `feh` to have previously initialized

I had installed feh with QuickWall together and upon the first run of QuickWall there were errors thrown about missing files related to feh.

The error raised was a python missing file error that was looking for a .fehbg file. In this case the file in question was only missing because I hadn't previously run feh.

After running feh and setting a placeholder background, QuickWall was working as expected.

QuickWall Colors

The color scheme is removed if I restart the computer. (Arch Linux i3-gaps downloaded from AUR)

Need testers for XFCE.

I am trying to add support for XFCE, need someone who is using XFCE and is willing to test the app.

Feature request: Option to specify a different target directory for downloads

Just makes it easier if you want to save these wallpapers in your collection for later use:)
Love the program!

Wallpapers appear in the same order each time?

PKGBUILD has nitrogen as dependency

AUR package has nitrogen as dependency, it isn't optional. I'm running Manjaro Xfce and I suppose there's no actual need for nitrogen unless it's explicitly run from the code by default?

terminal colors lost on new window

This tool is really cool, thanks for putting it together for us. I use it on gnome, and whenever I open a new terminal it reverts back to the default palette. Is there a way to make it persist?

Error When Running

When I try to start it gives

Traceback (most recent call last):

Unable to start QuickWall

Hey, thanks for your nice looking project!

I wanted to try it and installed QuickWall with pip3 install QuickWall on a Debian 9 Maschine.
Current Python3 Version is 3.5.3.

This error appears on the first run of QuickWall:

Unsplash API Terms of Use violation?

Just wondering, because when we create a new Unsplash app, we have to click and agree that the app is not "🚫 a wallpaper app [which] returns Unsplash images for downloading. Without the integration, the app has no content and no value to users."

I'd say that matches this app. I wanted to write one of these applications myself but in Go, but this condition stopped me from going forward with using Unsplash.

Can you or someone with more knowledge verify this isn't the case?

See: Guideline: Replicating Unsplash

Unauthorized error when fetching wallapapers from Unsplash

Does the unsplash API require some form of authentication?

I've used quickwall both from the AUR package and from PyPi. The error is the same for the two versions.

changing terinal color scheme should be an option

QuickWall changes terminal colors nicely, but I'd rather have this an option, or at least having an option to turn that feature off.
