Fancy Brightening Up Yer Desktop

Post by crofter »

Well take a look here for some pretty decent wallpapers to brighten up the "naff" Windows Desktop Defaults, available in most screen resolutions ... and FREE.

Just in case you don't know how to alter your Desktop, unlikely I know as you guys are all IT Experts, but for newbies:

In the "Start" menu go to "Control Panel" and select "Display" then via the tabbed menu at the top select "Desktop" then select "Browse" and enter the picture of your choice, press "apply". Job Done.

PEOPLE think Stephen Hawking is so clever, but when you ask him a question and he is typing in the answer on his little screen, how do we know he isn't just looking up the answer on the Internet?

Or just right-click an image and select "Set as desktop background..."
