Have I used that wallpaper before?

Wednesday, May 21, 2008 by Philly0381 | Discussion: OS Customization

If you are here using the software then you have done this many times, probably more times than you can remember.   

Well it's time for me to change my desktop so I looked for a wallpaper to start with.  Since I've downloaded a few I checked to see what I had.  I picked one that I liked and had used before.  Went about changing elements and finding things that I felt matched.  Felt like I did a pretty good job.    

I then decided to compare it to the desktop that I had made before with the wallpaper, and wouldn't you know it, very similiar.  It wasn't exactly the same but close enough.  So either I like what I like, or I haven't grown or learned a lot from the last time I used the wallpaper.   

So the question is can you go back an use the same wallpaper and come up with a different look?  I did not go back and look what I had done before I put together the new desktop. 

I wonder what others would come up with by using the same wallpaper again.  Give it a try and then compare and post what you find out.

Yup, another slow day for me.

I try not to use the same elements more than once, and there was a time where I'd always use a different wb. But lately, with a shortage of new skins that I really like, I've found myself having to use one I've already used before, however with wallpapers I always manage to use a new one. Or, short of that, make a new wall using wallpapers I've already used.

Haven't been at this very long so luckily it's easy for me to use different things for everything with each new setup.

But I have had a few wallpapers that I will keep on the desktop while changing everything else to go with it.
