I can see how it would work, but why is it needed? It doesn't really make sense to add something like this to a game where you shouldn't be staring at the menu to begin with. It's not like it's a media player (I suppose it already has visualizations, so you could almost consider it one, now). On the flip side, I suppose it would be nice having a different image every time you return to the main screen, for whatever reason that may be.

But why?

Really based on skinning themes. Usually most pictures are blocked by the osu!cookie so if there multiple menu-backgrounds, if there multiple characters of the skin theme they are using, they can use each character for it own multiple background.

Example. Mirai Nikki skin. A background for each character just to make it more better instead of a one clumped with each character.

A single menu background is enough for me. I would prefer setting the cookie opacity to a fixed value like 70-80%.

Good god why haven't you requested This yet? D:

About OP Request: I wouldn't have much use by that personally.

I like this idea, having a set of backgrounds allow skinners to put more than one BG related to their skin, but... I don't really like the idea of a timer. Third idea is way better imo, you just get a new random BG each time you come back to the menu (or launch osu!).

I don't like the idea of a timer cause it could make people starring at the menu as said in the topic. Also a timer based on something less than a minute would be ridiculous imo, think about this:
setbackgroundchange=1

May be a while if it gets invalid. You can go ahead lol. I plan on continuing to edit the post.

May remove timing idea and just use what Drafura and I thought.

This is a worthy suggestion. I don't consider it invalid. Many people will want to have this option.

Well I was talking about it having timers, but meh, to much work and too much coding, so this would be a better idea.

Yea, this is basically already happening. Just that we get to pick the backgrounds .
I like this idea. But it is not high on the priority list for me.

I actually also want this, hope this gets added c:

Another bump to take the win
Grassgrow
I really really really hope this will get added, for me personally, it is very important to have a variety of backgrounds. Right now, as we do not have this feature, I end up switching background every two days or so, and if I could just have about 100 different background in my skin folder ("menu-background001, 002...) and they would randomize, that would really make people like me very happy. Bump

Bumpidy Bump BUMMMMMMMMMMMMMP :D :D :D :D :D

Long ass bump. Forgot this existed.

would still love it :D
Nitrous
Would be a great addition. Even tho many wouldn't like it, it can be optional like how skins can be animated.

It is 100% possible at this moment, I mean look at the holiday updates, there where also multiple backgrounds, why not add this as a feature already. JUST DO IT. I have a folder waiting with 1576 backgrounds!!!!
Toxi
I really hope this happens because i always end up switching skins for the background, and it would be so much easier to just have one skin that randomizes the background for me
