Wallpapers are the background for the clock. The following criteria is considered when selecting a background.

  1. How distracting is it? If it is a video and it's moving a lot, you might not want it.
  2. Size. It will only show a 1024 by 800 block of the image (from the top-right). If it's huge and the focal point is in the center, you won't see it.
  3. Color. The text of the time and date is white, so if it is too bright, you can't see it.

You can create and activate a new wallpaper by doing the following.

  1. Click "Wallpapers" in the main navigation (top-right).
  2. Fill in a name for the wallpaper.
  3. Select a file. Supported file types are *.jpg, *.gif, and *.png for images, and *.mp4 for videos. Support for more video types and YouTube videos are coming soon.
  4. Click "Create". It will take a little bit to upload the file.
  5. Click "Activate" on the wallpaper to use it.
