SitePix is an open-source, cross-platform image downloader that collects large photographs from news blogs, museums, and public image collections for desktop wallpapers and screen savers. It supports sources such as NASA, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Smithsonian, and WordPress-style websites. Users can configure custom image sources through JSON profiles and an interactive setup wizard. Downloads are saved to a designated local folder for use with operating system slideshow features. The application supports scheduled daily updates, automatic removal of older images, and optional title and date overlays. Its extraction engine uses APIs or browser-based scraping depending on the source. Built with .NET, SitePix runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
