Desktop Wallpaper Overload
August 20th, 2007

As I started reading a blog post about a desktop app recommendation, I realized I needed to change out my desktop wallpaper (I usually look for a new one about every 1-2 months). By the time I finished the article, I thought about how desktop wallpaper can be distracting sometimes.
I went into my desktop settings looking for alternatives when I came across a Solid Colors option I never really paid any attention to before since I was always focused on loading the latest graphic I found.
After about a day of having just a one color background (screenshot above), it feels somewhat refreshing. I think I’ll give it a try for a while. Maybe use some color themes from online inspiration sites and do a different theme each month (with a different color from the theme each week).
