Active Desktop Backgrounds

Today we are going to make your own active desktop wallpaper,
you can if you so choose share it with the entire Lane community.
If you do not want to do this let me know.

First view the examples, see how they fade into the blue on the right, yours needs to do that too.






THEN - Download this image, right click on the file and "open with GIMP" -
if that doesn't work open the application GIMP and drag the file into GIMP.




As you need help with GIMP I will float around and assist,
consider a theme and build 3-5 images surrounding that theme together in a collage.
