Desktop Wallpaper for Windows 95 & 98
How would like to have an award-winning Wildfowl Sculpture as your Desktop Wallpaper? Currently we only offer the Godin Art Desktop Wallpaper for 800x600 resolution. There are two versions of each image. Choose according to the properties of your Desktop Taskbar. If you use "Auto-hide" on your Desktop Taskbar, choose 1A or 2A. If you do not use "auto-hide" on your Desktop Taskbar, then 1B or 2B will be more suitable. What is the Desktop Taskbar "Auto-Hide"? On your desktop it is possible to hide your Taskbar by setting the properties of the Taskbar. When the Taskbar is setup with "auto-hide", it slides down and out of view until you touch your cursor to the bottom of the desktop, or by pressing the "Windows" button on your keyboard. This then brings the Taskbar back into view. This allows you a larger, more complete view of your desktop and with any other program you might have open, adding approximately 60 pixel in height. To enable "Auto-hide" on your Desktop Taskbar, right click on an area of your Desktop Taskbar, (The bar at the bottom with the "Start Button"), and choose "Properties" from the menu. This brings up the "Taskbar Properties" window. Place a check in the box in front of "Auto hide" option, by clicking on the empty check box. Then choose "Apply" to activate, then close out the properties box. Your taskbar should slide down and out of sight, as soon as you apply this choice. To bring the taskbar back into view, touch your cursor to the bottom of the screen.
