of John’s Background Switcher version fixes a few bugs and makes some much needed tweaks to JBS in general.
Features and Changes:

Added shared album support to Google Photos integration
Updated Dropbox integration to support short lived authentication tokens (a change at their end – you shouldn’t notice a thing)
Added support for image/jpg as well as the standard image/jpeg (basically working around websites returning the wrong thing)
Added support for multireddits (if you know what they are then you’re all good!)
Added a hidden setting to disable folder sorting (ask me if you want to switch it off)
Made some tweaks to the Google Photos UI as suggested by Google
Updated Vladstudio integration to use their new URLs
Downloading the largest possible photos from Pixabay when required (JBS wasn’t always doing so)
Bug Fixes

I broke first time OneDrive and Google Photos authentication in 5.3 – my bad!

New:
Added support for Unsplash users collections and liked photos
Added Wallhaven as a photo source (about time too!)
Added gallery support to Flickr
Four picture montages now use much larger pictures for improved photo quality
You can now edit No Draw Zones
Removed Instagram as Facebook switched off the old API and the new one requires a verified business to use
Added the option to choose from folders and sub-folders in OneDrive and Dropbox
You can now sort Flickr photos by relevance
Folders are sorted alphabetically in the settings window
You can now show the previous and next month in the calendar rather than the next two
Added the option to buy a license for JBS - just as a way to support it, there's no license-only functionality
Removed top artists from last.fm as it was broken
Added Google Photos favourites to the selection
For Hungarian users the shortcuts are disabled by default as they often conflict with other apps
Bug Fixes:
Fixed the settings file being locked and failing to save, thereby wiping out your settings on reboot
Only checking for 'programs to stop switching for' when actually about to switch
Full sized Flickr photos are now correctly rotated
Fixed some broken Reddit feeds
Fixed a crash on some high resolution machines when bringing up the settings window

Features and Changes:

12869: Update JBS to use the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5

CHANGED: After over a decade of being built on Microsoft .NET 2.0 JBS has now moved with the times and is now built on .NET 4.5. What does this mean? It means new installs take less time (since Windows 8 and above include .NET 4.5 but had to install an older version when you installed JBS), some long standing bugs JBS had to workaround are no longer problems, it means JBS should be more stable and can have some cool new performance improvements added in the future. On the down side it means JBS no longer supports older versions of Windows than Vista. Bye bye Windows XP, it’s been fun!

12808: Pick up the date from RSS feeds

FEATURE: JBS now attempts to use the publication date as the photo date when handing MediaRSS photo feeds. Basically, if you show photo information you’ll now see the date too for RSS photos if it’s available.

Bug Fixes:

12897: 500px integration is broken due to TLS/SSL changes made to 500px

FIXED: 500px disabled the old, insecure TLS1 encryption protocol which broke JBS integration. This has now been corrected.

12826: Crash when authenticating with Dropbox and your web connection drops out

FIXED: This edge case has now been fixed – but you still need to sort that dodgy network connection out!

12871: The popup notifier window often shows cut off text

FIXED: Now you can see popup errors in all their glory!

12799: The calendar appears tiny on high DPI displays

FIXED: Now the calendar scales correctly with the display DPI and doesn’t require a magnifying glass to see.

Features and Changes:

12735: Add the option to change the collage tile size

FEATURE: You can now change the size of the photo collage tiles – just take a look at the ‘Montages’ section of ‘More Settings’. Since space is tight you’ll need to scroll down to change the sizes.

12419: Remove auto downloading of full sized pictures

CHANGED: While JBS has supported downloading and saving full-sized photos for many years, it turns out this behaviour is prohibited by some photo service API JBS uses so I’ve removed it. If you depended upon that functionality then you’ll have to use another app I’m afraid!

12564: Update Dropbox integration to use the v2 API

CHANGED: Dropbox has a new version of their API which JBS now supports. Unfortunately this means you’ll need to re-authenticate with Dropbox again as I’ve had to request a new API key from Dropbox to support the change.

12462: Explain the minimum size limitation in the help file

CHANGED: The help file wasn’t entirely clear on how the ‘only show pictures larger than x pixels’ feature worked. Now it is.

12731: Remove delicious from JBS

CHANGED: Since Pinboard has acquired delicious and it’s being killed off so has been removed from JBS.

12657: Remove Phanfare completely

CHANGED: Phanfare has migrated to SmugMug so has been removed from JBS completely.
