Question: How do you make a wallpaper for your desktop? 

Answer: Hm... do you mean use any IMAGE as a wallpaper? OR do you mean to actually go about CREATING an image to use?\n\nUse another image: Right click on the image in a browser and click on "Use as Wallpaper".\nMake your own: Open your image creation/editing program (MS Paint, Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc.), and check the specifications of your desktop (800x600? 1024x768? Other variant?), and create a canvas of that size (in pixels). Then randomly do things to the canvas. Draw a picture, make cool effects, cut 'n paste images, etc. Just go crazy. Then save the image, open the program/folder from which you change wallpapers and select that image. Click APPLY, then OK.
