So this is what I'd like to do, but am unsure on how to get Automater to do it.
I have the program to get the APOD and make it my desktop background. I'd like to set up Automater to do it once a day, but was fiddling with Automater without much progress.
Anyone want to lend a hand with this?

You want to use a workflow like this and save it as an iCal plug-in that repeats every day:
* Get Specified URLs containing the APOD URL ( Astronomy Picture of the Day)
* Get Image URLs from Webpage (chose 'linked from these webpages') in the popup button
* Download URLs
* Set the Desktop Picture

Does it require having iCal open all the time?
