Desktop Art
There is a wide variety of desktop art available to make your computer look quite spiffy, and not drab and boring like it looked before. In particular, there is an essentially unlimited supply of desktop wallpaper available on the internet. The fact is, essentially any image that you find on the internet can easily be converted into desktop art and posted on your screen to provide a decorative touch. Your computer does not care where you got the desktop art, or whether it is large or small, free or copyrighted. As long as it is in the right graphical format, it can be used as wallpaper for your desktop, easy as can be. If it is not in the right format, there are literally dozens of programs which can do the job of converting it for you.
The most important kind of desktop art might be the screen saver. It can be either quite irritating, or a really neat distraction, depending on what type of desktop screen saver that you use. Some of them are even adjustable, as in the classical star field where you can adjust the number of stars and the speed at which they whiz by your computer screen. The fact is that, when you are tired and need to rest from your work for just a few minutes, having an attractive and compelling screen saver to stare off into and daydream can be just the right thing. And as is the case with most desktop art, there are many many screen savers that can be downloaded for free. Don't be a sucker and spend money on desktop art when so many people are just giving it away!
Of course, the most novel form of desktop art is animation. Desktop animation is basically little cartoons that go on in the background of your computer while you type. The most famous example of this type of desktop art that I know of is the one with the wandering sheep that you have probably seen. The ones who parachute down, and then amble around your screen, doing all sorts of cute things while you work. But, of course there are many other types of desktop art animation for your entertainment, if sheep are not really your thing. Whatever you enjoy looking at, from robots to swimsuit models, to flying robotic swimsuit models, someone has probably designed a cute little desktop animation of it for your screen.
