February 2017 Desktop Background & Calendar are ready to download

Feb 1, 2017

 

2017 - 2 - February - tinified
Oh my gosh! Where has the first month of the brand-new year GONE already?!? I woke up this morning wondering how in the world can it possibly be February?!? Feels a little scary and unsettling, actually.

But somehow it's happened, and perhaps by having just installed a bright, fresh background & calendar on my monitors I'll eventually adjust. And in case you're feeling kinda the same way, may I present to you – "February" – already! 

My monthly desktop backgrounds not only offer you a pretty seasonal picture for your computer monitor, but they also include a handy monthly calendar and serve as a cheat sheet to websites you'll frequently want to know about and visit.

You'll probably want to consult your own computer operating system's installation instructions, but here's how I install my background image on my Windows 10 system – in 3 quick steps that take less than a minute. It's super-duper easy-peasy!

  1. I download and save the image to my computer – from the link just above that starts with the word "Download…". (NOT from the picture that appears at the top!)  TIP:  To "download" the image once it's open (from Google Drive where it's stored), be sure to click on the downward-pointing arrow. THAT is what begins the download process.
  2. Once the file has been downloaded and saved to my computer's hard drive, I open it. 
  3. Then right-click and select "Set as", then "Set as Background". 

So yes, while this is repeating myself, this point is particularly important: Be sure you click the "download" link to get your full-resolution background image. Please do NOT attempt to install the picture that appears at the top because it's a low-resolution image intended only for viewing within this article.

 

And in case you may have an operating system OTHER than Windows 10, these tips may help with installation:

Finally, please keep in mind that the format of my monthly picture is designed for most modern-day 16:9 monitors (common format for monitors and HD TV's since about 2009), oriented in landscape format. If you're working with an older monitor (one that is more square-ish in format), or your monitor is set up in portrait format, the picture will probably not work for you.
