    Hi This plugin appears to work fine – I have selected 6 backgrounds and set them to transitions slowly.

    Unfortunately after a few minutes browsing the site once this is enabled, I get low memory messages from Windows 8.1 asking me to close programs – something I have never seen before. I am wondeing if there’s a memory leak being caused somewhere?

    Great shame because this is a really useful little plugin and I was just about to buy the premium version!

    I have upgraded to the pro version which is very cheap ($19 as of Nov 2014), and this seems to be a newer version and works fine. I have had no problems with it and I can’t rule out that the earlier problems were not just specific to my setup.

    I must say that this is a very neat plugin, and used sensibly can really add another dimension to a website.

    The comments about intrusive advertising and image distortion on the free plugin may be about earlier versions – the current one does not do any of that and seems to do just what is expected, very simply.
    With the free version you are limited to 6 backgrounds – the paid one increases that to 10 (though why only 10 I don’t know). It would be good if you could start different pages with different backgrounds – it is a little frustrating to have the sequence restart each time you change page.

    Simple, great – a nice tool to have…
