I like to have a nice calm serene background for my computer. Nothing busy, because whenever I'm on the computer I am absorbing so much information and there is advertising everywhere! So I like to be able to close all my web pages and look at something beautiful and relaxing.

The background doesn't really matter to me as long as it isn't anything moving. It irritates me when I see something moving on my background. Usually I take the standard background which was already pre-installed on my computer. Sometimes, if I want a change, I use some picture of groups or music bands as background, though this won't happen very fast. Greetz

How about a relaxing waterfalls... Or a aerial view of a small inhabited island. Maybe even a picture of a forest at autumn. Nothing is more relaxing than a picture of a great smile form someone you love and who loves you in return.

It is so amazing to me how water is so soothing to so many people. I wonder why that is? I agree, when I was in school I used to have a picture of my daughter...EVERYONE loved looking at it!

My Virtual Vision Board - image of my virtual vision board as screensaver
That really is a beautiful picture to look at. Since I'm on the Law Of Attraction thing I did a virtual composite vision board to represent things I want in my life...LOL I have a screenshot of it here...I have vision boards all over the place so one day thought, heck, why not have a virtual computer one as well?

When I would close all of my browser, the thing that I would see in the background are two cute little angels standing on a heap of cloud, the male holding a heart-shaped paper and the female holding a stalk of rose. The male is kissing the female's forehead. And you would see that the heaven they are in is all PINK! I am a male, so why PINK? Actually I am not the one who set up the wallpaper, its my co-worker who used to sit here. This is originally her desk and her computer and I just don't find time changing it. I don't think I would ever change it.

Some animated Dolphine swimming about a blue water background and thick forests far off really make a very fanntastic background

Background of nature, seashore is pleasant to eye. It relaxes you and most especially it's like you are there.

my favorite wallpaper - here is my current wallpaper on my office desktop and on my personal computer at home.
like you i also want some peace of mind despite the busy days, i spent more than 10 hours in front of a computer at work and in my home so i need to have something to see that could make me smile, something refreshing and cool to the eye so i prefer to put a landscape or some shot of nature for my wallpaper. those green leaves or blue sky makes my day better and ease the tiredness in my eyes for a while.

There are three suggestions I have for you.First,put a picture of someone dearest to you.If you are a sentimental person, this could help especially if you work abroad or miles away from your family/friend.Second, select a serene desktop wallpaper. Notice that the color soothes your eyes and eventually relaxes your mind in a way.Third, if you are planning a major buy, put a picture of it in your desktop and while you stare at it and imagine that you are gonna be able to buy it in the near future, the feeling will be great.Hope it helps.

I would choose seaside/beaches as my wallpaper, especially the Mediterranean beaches. It helps to calm me and somehow release me from my daily stress.
