Time to relax.
Was given a work laptop today but is heavily locked down by restrictions on windows 11.
Been creatively trying to bypass some of the restrictions, now if only I could at my own background image, that would be nice.
I’ll have to do some research to see if there’s a way to override the organisation’s logo.
As someone who looks at doing these brandings and such for a living.. why would you want to? Who sits and looks at their desktop wallpaper anyway?
Even if you find a temporary way the changes will likely get overwritten by policy anyway.
If you need to change stuff for your job that's a valid request otherwise you have to remember that's not your personal laptop, it's a work tool.
I like a little personalisation, also the background colour and logo hurts my eyes a little but I managed to make the background black for the moment so that will do.
Just wanted some space theme fantasy planets in the background with some nice colour when I don’t have stuff open on the desktop sometimes.
Nothing more.
Are you me? I love space themed wallpapers, have a few I make my PC rotate through lol. Though my fav is the artwork I have of Gandalf and the Balrog on the bridge laughs nervously in nerd
I totally get what you mean about personalisation!
Hehe well we do have a fair few things in common I’ve noticed.
Planets and space are something I like but dragons are my true love.
The bridge scene between Gandalf and Balrog would actually make a pretty good background, especially when the whip hits Gandalf’s shield.
I like to configure things to my liking, I’ll settle probably for loading a browser theme instead!
