The other day I posted about how to develop an inspiring desktop. Here are some tools to use!
On Windows 98 and higher, you can create wallpaper or background images by going into your control panel and clicking on 'Display'. Macintosh computers with OS 8.6 or higher have directions for this in the Help file under 'Changing the Way Your Computer Looks.'
If you're an artist, consider scanning one or several of your favorite works onto your desktop. (If you donÕt have a scanner, chances are your public library, a KinkoÕs or copy shop will.) If your dream includes finding a spouse or having children or living in a beautiful old farmhouse, look for an image that captures the essence of that for you. Use your intuition here.
You can find images to work with in magazines or calendars, and then scan them into your computer. Or if you can get your hands on a digital camera, you can create them yourself. To find royalty free digital images that are free for your use on-line, click on the links below.
