I just installed the Ubuntu desktop (apt-get install ubuntu-desktop) for the first time. I guess this is Unity.
I wonder where I can find the settings. There was the "System Settings" tool right in the launcher but it only has some very basic settings - I am missing basically everything. I was searching:
- how I can change my default mouse cursor
- how can I setup the background so that it fades through a predefined set (or just a directory) of pictures
- how I can change the default font and other font settings
- where can I tweak the graphics settings (this was Compiz earlier, not sure if it still is)
Etc...
Yes, it is true that the "System settings" is too basic now. But, this will soon be fixed. For now, you can have Ubuntu tweak to do the tricks.

There is one wallpaper setting which will rotates/changes the wallpaper after specified amount of time. Right click on desktop → Change desktop background and select the wallpaper which has a clock icon in it.
You can also look at this question:
how I can change the default font and other font settings
Ubuntu tweak will help there. Install it. Open it and go to Tweak tab and then Fonts settings
where can I tweak the graphics settings (this was Compiz earlier, not sure if it still is)
Ubuntu tweak has some options. You can also try compizconfig-settings-manager. But be warned, it is too advanced tool
sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
