Default How often?

How often do you change your desktop background?

During the season I do it weekly from the Arsenal site so I have the latest game images.

When I'm trying to motivate myself I put up something different.

Just curious!

Depends on my mood. If I find something I like that just stands out as "perfect", it stays for a long time. But eventually I swap out backgrounds pretty often just to find the next good fit.

I do the same thing...

What do you use for your desktop program? I use Display Fusion, and I found a few websites with widscreen images.

Couple of my favs...

I never change mine really, honestly my home PC has dual 22" monitors and sat for a while with the active desktop recovery screen up haha. I usually have to size things to fit this resolution, and I dont care that much
