I have packaged up some of the more interesting graphics
(according to me at least) to be used as desktop backgrounds if you so
desire. To save space on the web server and download time I have left
them as JPEG files rather than convert them to the Windows BMP file
format.
Instructions
- You can either have Small
(640x480), Medium (800x600) or Large
(1024x768) sized graphics.
- Open the picture you want by clicking on the
link. It
should appear in another browser popup window.
- When it's finished opening right click
actually on the
image and select Set as Desktop Item... (Internet
Explorer 6) or Use Image as / Desktop Background
(Opera 7.5) or Set as Wallpaper...
(Mozilla Firefox) and as if by magic that picture
will now be your desktop background.
Different Browsers/Operating Systems
For users of other browsers or indeed other non-windows
operating
systems - it depends!
- Windows : users can just
save the image
and convert it from JPEG to BMP format using any graphic editing tool
(if you don't have one try IrfanView).
- Linux : users can, I think,
simply use a
JPEG as a background - depending on Linux distribution and desktop
manager in use. But frankly if you can use Linux as your desktop
operating system you will know all this anyway!
- Mac users? No idea!
