Question

I\'d like to randomly load images from the user\'s photo album, but I\'d prefer not to have to access an image picker (i.e. I\'d like to have the images be random background

Answer 1

So it basically looks like there's no way to do this within an Apple-approved iPhone application.

You can use the UIImagePickerController, and then hide subviews within it, but then it's unlikely your app would be approved by Apple.

So, looks like we'll have to wait until functionality like this can be added...
