Change wallpaper automatically in ubuntu 13.10

Question

well I'm new on ubuntu, I installed the 13.10 version because I heard it's faster and smoothly than 12.04. So, my problem is that I don't know how to change wallpapers in an automatic way (slideshow), but with my OWN pictures, I don't want pictures from flicker, etc. I want to have wallpapers of pictures that I have already downloaded. I searched some programs and I found Slidewall but I can't download it in ubuntu 13.10. Could anybody lend me some help? (sorry if there's a English confusion, I'm not too good at it)

wallch found in ubuntu 13.10,you can try that. – Avinash Raj Nov 16 '13 at 03:04 — Avinash Raj, Nov 16 '13 at 03:04

That is constantly crashing. I really don't understand what others find in that software... – Dor Sep 04 '15 at 09:51
