FAQ Installation
How do I set up my desktop Wallpaper
Netscape and MS Internet Explorer users: If you want to use any of the provided
images as your wallpaper just point on it with your mouse, click the right button
and choose: "Set As Wallpaper" option. This will automatically install
the image you like as a wallpaper on your desktop. Alternatively, if you are
an experienced PC user, you can convert the downloaded JPG or GIF images into
BMP format and copy them into your Windows directory. This will let you to select
new Wallpaper images right in the "Control Panel" when you get bored
of the old ones. To convert JPG into BMP format you can use:
Visua , 494 Kb (Windows
95 and NT 4.0) - FREEWARE!!! Very easy to use. Just unzip the program using
pkunzip.exe or Winzip 6.x into some directory (however it is recommended to
create a new one) and start the program by double clicking it. (Note: since
this program is not "anchored" to your Windows Registry, you can freely
move its' folder in your Windows Explorer). After you start the program, click
on "Open" button in the left upper corner and find the folder where
you saved your Wallpaper images. When you open one (out of several) image, you
will see the rest of them in the left white rectange. This rectangle will let
you open images faster, just by double clicking on them. When any image is open
you can easily convert it into BMP format by clicking "Save" button
(located right next to "Open" button). All you've got to do is select
"BMP" under "Save as type" option, write down a name of
the wallpaper (could be any name) and find your Windows directory (this is where
you wanna save your new "converted" image). Now press "Save"
and you're all set. Go to "Control Panel" and select your Wallpaper.
Note: You might find particularly useful a "mirror" option in "Visua".Good
luck!
