I had this pic as my screen saver, my daughter changed the background without asking me, and I can't remember how to put it back.

Anyone?

I feel as if I can't wait. Alright I can wait, but could someone please hurry?

Do you mean she changed teh screen saver or the background?

In either case,l you would know that. Go into Control Panel and then into Display. Choose background and select the background of your choice (if this is what you need) or go into Screensaver and change to the screensaver of your choice. I am assuming this is what you require.

Intrepid, it's the background I was referring to. The background of my choice (above pic) is not on the list. I don't know where to put it after I copy it from properties.

How do I get it on the list of background pics?

If you right click on the picture there should be a "save as background" option.

Hope this helps.

Oh, I see now. You copy it to your Windows folder

Well, I did 'something' and now I have a partial background.
I'll keep working on it, hmm, scuse me while I go aggravate the bajebus out of myself.

I could end up in therapy if this keeps up. Laughing

OK... don't panic. At least you can see the background..right?

Go back into Control Panel...Display...Desktop and look at the position box. Select stretch.

I am assuming that you have Windows XP

You are welcome turtlette. No work at all. I hardly broke a sweat. Thanks for the ice cream cone. I will put in in the freezer until morning. :-)
