Desktop Wallpaper Full PM-box? Change here!

How often do you change your desktop wallpaper?

I'm just curious (as usual ) about this...


I have a program which changes the wallpaper each 4 hours... I just can't stand it looking at the same desktop all the time...




Oh, and please don't post pictures of your desktop (There's a desktop thread for that one )... I don't want this thread to turn into a copy cat thread...

Tired of ads?

I was going to say, if you were going to manually change your wallpaper several times a day, that might be a sign of a deeper rooted problem.

For me, 4 or so times a week.

One sad thing is, I don't really see much of my wallpaper - does anyone? I mean, most of the time is doing something full-screen, be that Internet, work or a game.

I use Default too--("None")

Most of the time I am in at least 3 full-screen programs.

The only changes happen when I accidentally click "Set As Wallpaper" instead of "Save Image As" in Moz.

since I came up with the idea for this poll in the desktop thread, 50% of the royalties of this thread should go to me

BTW I don't change mine more than once or twice a year.

Default? What kind of sick freako masochists are you people? You probably use the Apolyton default too. Freaks

Sure, you get the credit... I just posted it, since you waited too long starting the thread

Unless you're talking about hair.

I change my background whenever I work up the motivation to make a new one. Usually takes over a month.

At work, I've currently got 9 rotating wallpapers with the logos & schedules of all the teams in the CFL, changing every hour, so I get to see all of them on every workday .

At home, I've had the same wallpaper (a Spider-Man movie poster) for over a year.
