→The Desktop Background
The desktop background constitutes the dark blue graphics in the above figure. If you don't like the default desktop background you can change it to either a selection of pre-installed images, or to a digital picture or image of your choosing. To find out more about customizing the background refer to [[Configuring the CentOS 6 GNOME Desktop Background]].
The desktop also provides a location for folders and applications for which quick access is required. A link to the user’s home folder is added to the desktop by default, as are the Computer and Trash icons. The former provides access both to storage devices and the network. The latter contains any files that have been placed in the trash can. For more details on these desktop features refer to [[Browsing Computerthe System, Files and Folders on the CentOS 6 Desktop]].
Clicking with the right mouse button on any area of the desktop background presents the following popup menu containing a number of useful options for changing or adding items to the CentOS 6 GNOME desktop:
