  inside application data directory. Usually this refers to:
    "C:\My Documents and Settings\
    \Application Data\Kana Solution\Kana Wallchanger"
  or
    "C:\Windows\Application Data\Kana Solution\Kana
    Wallchanger".
  If the OS does not support it, the setting file is saved
  inside the program directory.
* Added the default location of the directory to be
  monitored.
  By default, this directory is your My Picture folder if
  supported by the OS. If it does not supported, the default
  location will be selected by using this priority:
    1. My Documents
    2. The location of setting file (ini file)
    3. Program directory.
* Added resize and shrink method when applying the
  wallpaper.
  Resize will resize the image to fit into your screen. If
  the image is smaller, it will be enlarged, if it larger,

  applying as wallpaper.
