Photos that appear as your home screen or desktop background can add personality to your computer. You can set your background to be a family member or friend, object of nature, a sample photo or virtually any photo you can imagine as long as it has been uploaded to your computer.
Instructions
Step 1
If you would like to set a personal photo as your desktop background, take the photo with a digital camera or scan a photo and save it in your Pictures folder.
Step 2
Open your "pictures" folder and select the photo you want. Or from the "Start" menu select "Pictures" to open your picture program and find the photo you would like to set as your background.
Step 3
Right click on the photo and a menu will display. From this menu, select "Set as desktop background". Then close out or minimize all open applications so that the desktop appears. Your photo should be your new desktop background.
Step 4
To further personalize your desktop, right click on the photo from the desktop and choose "personalize". A list of options and choices will appear that allow you to personalize your desktop and screen saver.
