Have you looked at the stuff that comes with the OS install (desktop patterns for example)?

If you do an internet search...there are LOTS of websites with free desktop patterns & photos to use as a desktop.

Are you talking about the app icons that are in your dock at the bottom of the screen? There are various apps for changing the appearance of those icons. I just can't think of any of the names at the moment.

First time I read that title, could've sworn the word "on" was in the middle. But, on closer inspection, it's not. Boring indeed!
