Computer Tip

If you like to change the Desktop wallpaper on your monitor occasionally I want to pass along a fun tip on how you can use just about any nice picture you find on a website as your wallpaper. For example, if you go to our Classmates Directory webpage the picture there is the two '61 gold tassels on each side of a dark black background. Want to try that for your wallpaper? Here's how to do it:

• First, right click anywhere on the image. In the options box that appears left click on Set as Background.
  
  
• Next, press and hold the Start key. (That's the key with the small flag located on the bottom left side of your keyboard.) Then press the "D" key. That will open your Desktop so you can see what the picture will look like as wallpaper.
  
  
• If you want to use that picture as wallpaper that's all there is to it. When you want to make a change just repeat the same process with another picture of your choice.
  
  
• As you try different pictures if you don't like the results just repeat the process till you find one you do like.
  
  
• Some pictures may not respond to the right click of your mouse. Just keep clicking till you find one that will.

This is how the process works on the Window's XP operating system. If you use another operating system I don't know if it will work the same way.
