Here's another oldie, but goodie for you. (Plus, I've gotten buy propecia generic<\/a> a lot of requests for this one and it'll be a really good refresher course for some of you!)<\/font><\/p>\n

Are you tired of the desktop picture you currently have? If you are, why don't you spice it up a little?! It's really not hard to do at all. Just read this tip through and you'll be a desktop changin' pro in no time. I bet you'll be changing your desktop image every week now! <\/font><\/p>\n

The fastest and easiest way I've found to do this is to right click on your desktop and select Properties<\/strong>. From the resulting window, click on the Display<\/strong> tab. <\/font><\/p>\n

You can go ahead and scroll through the list of images that the Windows XP people kindly provided and you can also preview them in the top window. <\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Feel free to change the Position <\/strong>mode from Stretch <\/strong>(one big picture) to Tile <\/strong>(many little pictures) to Center<\/strong> (one small picture in the center of your desktop with a hand picked color filling in the background). <\/font><\/p>\n

Now, if you want to use a picture that you have saved on your computer, simply click the Browse<\/strong> button and an Open window will appear. It will default to your My Documents\/My Pictures<\/strong> folder, but you can browse through other folders via the Look in:<\/strong> box at the top. <\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Once you've found the picture you want, click on it and then click the Open <\/strong>button. This will take you back to the Display Properties window and you should see a preview of your brand new desktop. When you have things looking just the way you want them, click Apply<\/strong>, OK <\/strong>and just like that, you'll have have an all new desktop to love and enjoy. It doesn't get any better than that! <\/font><\/p>\n

Have fun creating the desktop of your dreams!<\/font><\/p>\n\n
