I change my background every so often and I have learned that pictures of beaches just create too much wanderlust so I have learned to change them to things that inspire me. Recently the CEO of my company walked by my desk and pointed to my 27″ monitor and said “I like that”. I quickly whipped around to see what could possibly be on my screen and realized he was referring to my desktop background which read “Attack Today Gracefully”. He then told me it was a great take on carpe diem or seize the day – I had not thought of that but I guess so.
While photos of destination vacation spots are counter productive at work, I have found that witty, yet office appropriate desktop backgrounds keep me going. (keep in mind, I work at an ad agency). I have recently favorited ones by Aubrey of Aubrey Kinch Design and Lisette of High Note Designs, the lovely ladies behind my blog design, but there are others I like as well. Here are nine of my favorites:
Creative Minds Are Rarely Tidy
Make it Pop Like Pink Champagne (seen here)
