kid version wallpaper engine

[nathkyo]

I can understand that the creator is very busy. But my idea is for a version that would remove age filter and have it set for ga only. It could be set for $2.00 and still work pretty similar to wallpaper engine but would have a few things removed. another idea could be to have it be a remote app that can be installed on another computer allowing parents to set the wallpaper engine background or their kids.

I wouldn't recommend installing WE, if you're afraid of your kids seeing big anime tiddies, age rating is set by the creator of the wallpaper and can be mistagged, so even if the mature is filtered out it's not guaranteed to be completely sfw.

That's also why a suggested a possible remote app that would work similar to the android version of wallpaper engine that is about to be released. This one would work for the computer and allow the full version of wallpaper engine to control it and set wallpapers for the individual computers. giving a small example there is a wallpaper on here of a Christmas Pokémon theme.
I was looking through my wallpapers to set one Christmas and my daughter said that she wanted it on her computer.

You can already do this without paying for another version of Wallpaper Engine. You need to go to the wallpaper_engine/bin/ directory and create an empty text file that is named exactly like this:

lockrating.txt

Restart Wallpaper Engine afterwards and you will see that the age rating filters are gone from the app.

Alternatively, you could also just install the app on her PC and not give her access to your Steam account. That way you could just pre-install a view wallpapers that she can use. Instead of relying on subscriptions, it may be a good idea to use local backups:
