Tra la! It’s May! The lusty month of May! That lovely month when ev’ryone goes blissfully astray. Tra la! It’s here! That shocking time of year when tons of wicked little thoughts merrily appear!
Guenevere: Camelot
Gotta admit, not only did I get to see a bit of the Camelot filming excitement as a youngster living in Spain back in the early 60’s, but many years later when I finally had the chance to watch the finished movie production it immediately became part of me. It’s remained one of my all-time favorite movies, and every single May 1st, the lyrics of “The Lusty Month of May” replay all day long in my mind.
My monthly desktop wallpaper background offers you a pretty seasonal picture to brighten your computer monitor. But that’s not all; it also includes a handy monthly calendar and serves as a cheat sheet reference to websites you may want to know about and visit. And it’s even FREE, so please don’t hesitate to share this page with your friends and family.

You’ll probably want to consult your own computer operating system’s installation instructions, but installing the background image on my Windows 10 system takes just 3 quick steps – and less than a minute. It’s super-duper easy-peasy!
- Download and save the image to your computer – from the link just above that starts with “Click HERE”. (NOT from the picture that appears with this post!)
- Once the file has been saved to your computer’s hard drive, open the image.
- Once open, right-click on the image and select “Set as” > “Set as Background”….. then right-click again and select “Set as” > “Set as Lock screen”. And poof! That’s all there is to it! (For convenience, I recommend you install this on both your desktop system as well as your laptop.)
Tips for other operating systems:
And in case you may have an operating system OTHER than Windows 10, you may find these installation tips helpful:

Finally, please keep in mind that the format of my monthly picture is designed for most modern-day 16:9 monitors (a common format for monitors and HD TV’s since about 2009), oriented in landscape format. (1920 x 1080 pixels.) 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. Sorry ’bout that.
