Personalize your computer desktop PDF Print
Written by Michelle Swadling

I like to change my computer desktop picture every couple of weeks. It is usually showcasing my new favorite layout.


To set up a picture or layout as a background on your computer follow these easy instructions:


Go to your computer desktop and right click
Choose “properties”
Click on the “Desktop” tab
Click on the “Browse” button
Find the file you want as your background, select it and choose “Open”
For the Position drop down, I like “Center”
For the Color drop down, I coordinate the color with the picture I’ve chosen.


If the photo appears too large, or small it may be because of the size you have your screen resolution set to (settings tab). I have mine set to 1280 x 1024, so I make sure my layout is smaller then that (I usually use my 600x600 layouts). You may need to resize your picture to fit within your computer resolution too.

These instructions are based off of Windows XP, but I'm told older versions of Windows are the same or similar.

Have fun!
