Hurray! Your August 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar is here!
When I began my search for this month’s wallpaper image I knew I needed “calm”. It was at the end of a long, tough, and incredibly hot week. And I was mentally spent and miserably hot (and a bit grumpy on account of it all). So I went in search of an visual antidote (please excuse the unfortunate pun, given the crazy world we’re coping with right now). And without too much searching, this is what turned up. Now, truth is I’d really rather BE there about now, than just look at it on my computer screen… but indeed it does speak “calm” into my soul.
My monthly desktop wallpaper & calendar 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 PDF’s and websites you may want to know about and access. And it’s even FREE to download, so please don’t hesitate to share this page with your friends and family.
How to download & install your August 2020 Wallpaper/Calendar
Note: 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!
Here’s how you can (probably) do it, too.
- Start by left-clicking right here and the full-resolution image should pop up or open in a new tab. Then right click on the image and save it to your hard drive.
- Once the file has been downloaded, named, and saved, click on your saved image to open it.
- 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 and your laptop. Assuming you still have such things these days, of course!)
Tips for other operating systems:

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. (Typically 1920 x 1080 pixels.) If you’re working with an older monitor (and/or one that is more square-ish in format), or your monitor is set up in portrait format or some other variation, the picture may not work for you.
Shucks! And I’m real sorry about that!
