<title>Change the desktop background</title>
<p>You can change the image used for your desktop background, or set
it to a simple color or gradient.</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Click your name on the top bar and select <gui>System Settings</gui>.</p></item>
<item><p>Open <gui>Background</gui>.</p></item>
<item><p>Select an image or color. The settings are applied immediately.
<link xref="shell-workspaces-switch">Switch to an empty workspace</link>
to view your entire desktop.</p></item>
</steps>
<p>There are three choices in the drop-down list on the left.</p>
<list>
<item><p>Select <gui>Wallpapers</gui> to use one of the many professional
background images that ship with GNOME. Some wallpapers are partially
transparent and allow a background color to show through. For these
wallpapers, there will be a color selector button in the bottom-right
corner.</p></item>
<item><p>Select <gui>Pictures Folder</gui> to use one of your own photos
from your Pictures folder. Most photo management applications
store photos there.</p></item>
<item><p>Select <gui>Colors & Gradients</gui> to just
use a flat color or a linear gradient. Color selector buttons will appear
in the bottom right corner.</p></item>
</list>
<p>You can also browse for any picture on your computer by clicking
the <gui>+</gui> button. Any picture you add this way will show up
under <gui>Pictures Folder</gui>. You can remove it from the list
by selecting it and clicking the <gui>-</gui> button. Removing a
picture from the list will not delete the original file.</p>
