Personalize Your PC With Desktop Wallpaper

A recent study indicated that people spend more time with their computers today than with their spouse or significant other. It's not that hard to believe, considering all the time people spend on their computers for business, schoolwork or personal use (or any combination of the three).

And as you spend all that time in front of the computer, you'll soon realize that staring at the same desktop background for hours on end can get pretty old, pretty fast. So why not bring a bit of a personal touch to your screen by decorating it with some free desktop wallpaper? You decorate all the other places you spend the most time - be it a dorm room, work area, home, etc. - to create a more appealing environment, so it makes sense that you would want to add some of your personal style to your desktop as well.

Your desktop is the first thing you see when you turn on your computer. It should be uniquely you. The default backgrounds provided by the operating system are pretty unexciting and impersonal. Why be limited to just these images when the possibilities to keep your desktop fresh with interesting and cool free wallpapers are endless?

Desktop wallpapers can go beyond just being eye candy; they can be creative, inspiring, gorgeous and hilarious. You can find free wallpaper featuring funny cartoons, inspirational messages, holiday themes, handy calendars, abstract art and striking photographic images, in a variety of resolutions to fit any monitor. And for newer high-resolution monitors there are a variety of free desktop wallpapers available in HD, HDR High Dynamic Range), 3D, widescreen and for dual-monitor setups. You can also create desktop wallpaper from your own photos, illustrations or artwork.

There are a multitude of sites on the Web that offer free desktop wallpapers to download. With the vast selection of wonderful high-quality wallpapers out there you can change your desktop every day (or even several times a day) if you desire. Just be sure to only download wallpapers from websites with good reputations. They should ensure that their wallpaper downloads are clear of any spyware and viruses.

Wallpapers are one of the easiest ways to personalize your computer. So, as much time as you spend on your computer there is no reason to live with a boring computer desktop. Customize your computer desktop to your liking with free wallpapers. Go ahead and display your favorite team logo or a breathtaking landscape or an image that makes you laugh.
