Windows Backdrops

Here are some Maclean related backdrops for your Windows desktop.

All backdrops are true colour, 1280x1024. If your display is not set for 1280x1024 (it probably isn't) then you should set your windows backdrop to STRETCH in your display properties. To do this, RIGHT CLICK on an empty spot on your desktop and select PROPERTIES from the popup menu. Then on the DISPLAY tab, set POSITION to STRETCH. If you do not, then you will not see the whole picture on your Windows desktop!

Although not necessary, you may also want to set your display for 24 or 32 bit in the SETTINGS tab of your display properties, as the colours in the backdrops will look best with one of these settings.

To set a picture as your backdrop, click on the small thumbnail below to open the picture in a new window. The picture may take a couple of minutes to load (especially on dialup), they are fairly large. You will not see the whole picture in the popup window because the pictures are too large. This is normal.

Once the picture is fully loaded, click on it with the RIGHT mouse button. From the popup menu, select SET AS WALLPAPER or SET AS BACKGROUND. This will set the picture are your Windows backdrop. You may then close the popup window.

New backdrops will be added as they become available.
