The pictures are very accessible online either free or for a small one-off fee, and are a must for the serious cricket fan. It’s the same principle as wearing a T-shirt bearing a picture of your favourite player, just to show the world how big a cricket fan you really are.
If you’re technically minded, you can even create your own wallpaper using a PC and digital camera. But, its not worth the hassle unless you have a special cricket picture that you really want as a constant reminder.There’s such a huge variety of cricket content available on the web that its just not worthwhile to go it alone. Its easy to download pictures of cricket action, players, umpires and even commentators. Of course, little on the web is really for free, so beware of the motives behind the free download. These might simply be an advertising logo embedded in the corner of the picture or more seriously, risks of spyware or viruses – the same principles of care apply here as with any other download. But, there are plenty of reputable sites that can provide the wallpaper that you or your junior cricketer just can’t do without. Lets start with the biggest and most reputable of them all – Cricinfo has a great collection of cricket wallpapers that you can convert to a desktop background with just a couple of mouse clicks.The collection is organised into player, team and action shots from each of the ten test playing nations, and from several recent test, T20 and ODI series, as well as from the Cricinfo Awards 2007. To download a picture, left click on your most suitable screen resolution from the three available sizes, then right click the full size picture and select "Set as wallpaper" or "Set as background", and you’re done! If you want to change the picture, just repeat this. Or if you really have to return to a Windows desktop, choose a suitable picture from your control panel/display/desktop menu. Want to go beyond a cricket wallpaper desktop? You can also show your true cricket loyalties by choosing a cricket screensaver for your PC. Cricket365 is one of the best cricket magazine sites in the world, and they provide a choice of screensavers via the download site CNET.com .
