Create a entry in Openbox menu with:
feh --rcfile /home/me/.fehrcwall "/home/Me/MyWallpaper"
And create a file with name
.fehrcwall
and put in your Home.
This file is a copy of .fehrc with simple change. Just put this:
# Set the default feh options to be recursive and verbose
feh -qrNA "feh --bg-scale "%f"" --title "Wallpaper" -g 320x240
Now, when you click in openbox menu, an image will appear in small window. You can navigate with your mouse scroll wheel or left/right arrows. To se the wallpaper just press Enter.

This took me a little bit, so i write it down.
In ~/.wmii-3.5/wmiirc, replace the following line:
xsetroot -solid ‘#0b1014′
with a command to set the background image, such as
eval `cat $HOME/.fehbg` &
(requires feh)
Now i don’t have to bother anymore with the configfile,
feh –bg-center ~/path/to/image sets the backgroundimage
and after a reboot the last shown picture is set.

feh is highly configurable. For a full list of options, run feh –help.
Image Browser
To quickly browse images in a specific directory, you can launch feh with the following arguments:
$ feh -g 640x480 -d -S filename /path/to/directory
- The -g flag forces the images to appear no larger than 640×480
- The -S filename flag sorts the images by filename
This is just one example and there are many more options available, should you desire more flexibility.
