Default Backgrounds

Hi there,

When I set a desktop background to be centered, once of them becomes
stretched, I've got a feeling it's regarding the resolution but this is a
link to the background that I would like centered in the middle of the screen
and not streched for the whole screen.

Thanks for your help,

From Porthos.

You could try FastStone Image Viewer

http://www.faststone.org/index.htm

It has four options for setting wallpaper (right click menu) and I think
that one will be what you want.

Hi Paul,

That's perfect, the resizer programme was just what I was looking for, by
reducing the size of the image, I can then center it on the desktop
background,

Thanks again Paul,

From Porthos.
