How to set a wallpaper as your computer desktop:


To set any photo as your computer wallpaper, first click on the thumbnail image.  Wait for the full-size image to load completely.  (You may not be able to see all of it, but that's ok.)

If you have a Windows computer:

Right-click on the image and choose "Set as Background," "Set as Desktop," "Set as Wallpaper," or the like.

If you have a Mac:

My Wallpaper doesn't look right:

If your desktop background looks grainy, try again, making sure to right-click on the large image, not the thumbnail. (It's a common mistake!)

If your desktop background looks squashed or stretched.  Make sure you have chosen the correct format for your computer.  See here for help.
