The Desktop Background
== The Desktop Background ==
The desktop background constitutes the swirling graphics in the above figure. Fedora 8 introduced the concept of a dynamically changing desktop background. In Fedora 8 the background changes color gradually as the day progresses. If you don't like the default desktop 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 read [[Changing the Fedora GNOME Desktop Background]] chapter.
The desktop also provides a location for folders and applications for which quick access is required. A link to the users home folder is added to the desktop by default, as are the ''Computer'' and ''Trash'' icons. The former provides access 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 My Computer, Files and Folders on the Fedora Desktop]].
