Can anybody post a desktop background involving parallax or the boe-bot?

    go to the Parallax site, and grab whatever pictures you like by right clicking and saving them into a folder. You can then preview them full screen and press ctrl+PrtScr which 'prints the screen' - but it really puts the screen into the copy paste buffer. You can then open paint (or whatever image editor software you have) and trim it to your liking - or past in other pictures to make a Parallax montage. Save them in the same place windows expects to find your desktop images - or save in your pictures folder and you can have the desktop set that way. Screen saver can also display a photo gallery.

    Alt+PrntScrn will print just the active window: very handing when making a tutorial.
