How to install:-
After you click the image in my directory the next window will have the image displayed full size. From this point follow these instructions.
Windows Users (Windows 95, 98, 2000 & NT):
- Place your mouse over the image.
- Click on the right mouse button.
A menu window will pop up.
- Scroll down and highlight the option "Set As Wallpaper" and then use the left mouse button to click on it.
The wallpaper is now installed on your desktop.
However, the next time you repeat this procedure with another wallpaper, this one will be replaced by your new choice since it is saved as generic "Internet Explorer" or "Netscape" wallpaper in your Windows directory.
To avoid that, the best way to save a wallpaper is to:
- right-click on image,
- choose "Save Picture As ...",
- save in your C:\WINDOWS directory as, very important, "BITMAP FILE" (with .bmp extension, NOT .jpg extension).
You may choose any name you like for your new wallpaper.
This way, you will save this file under whatever name you wish, i.e not Netscape or Internet Explorer wallpaper, and the name of the wallpaper will show up in the desktop properties under wallpapers. That means that you can select and set your wallpapers from the desktop menu and build a very nice collection of your own wallpapers.
To get to the Windows Wallpaper control panel, go through this sequence:
- Right click on any empty space on your desktop
- Click on properties
- Click on Desktop Tab
- Choose your wallpaper from a list of available wallpaper saved in your C:\WINDOWS directory on your computer Hard Drive.
If you save it elsewhere, you can use the browse button to find it (can be any image extension)
- Click OK
