Your computer comes with several wallpaper styles to choose from, but you can also create images and make your own wallpaper. Whether you use off-the-shelf software or a free program, you can create computer wallpaper in no time.
Instructions

Also choose whether you want the text box to be white or opaque. At this time you can also pick the font and size of the text.
