what I want to demonstrate here real
0:05
quickly is changing my desktop wallpaper
0:08
so here's something people don't know is
0:10
that when you do a google image search
0:11
you can specify the size of the images
0:15
that you want it to return and I'm going
0:18
to use a zoom a call-out in ScreenFlow
0:21
to show you where you add that so you
0:23
see that here on your screen now and I
0:26
haven't touch my cursor I haven't done
0:27
anything I'm doing all this in post and
0:30
you can see my screen resolution is 1680
0:33
by 1050 so yes that means I don't have a
0:36
Retina display yet and what I'm gonna do
0:41
is I'm gonna look through these images
0:42
now finally I'll be back on my cursor
0:44
and look through these images there's a
0:46
really nice one so the way that you can
0:48
use Google Image Search is you click
0:50
once now you see a thumbnail and behind
0:53
it you see the full image page but I
0:56
don't want to do that what I want to do
0:58
is I want to go over to the right and I
1:01
want to click on full size image and now
1:04
the whole image loads on my web browser
1:07
now it's not as big as my screen because
1:10
Google Chrome is automatically scaling
1:12
it that's why it shows the little plus
1:15
symbol on the cursor so what I want to
1:17
do here is ctrl click save image as and
1:24
then I'll just go ahead and put it on my
1:25
desktop Alice in Wonderland
1:28
Desktop save and on the lower left you
1:33
can see it downloads the image and when
1:35
it's done the icon changes and that
1:38
looks good let's move this out of the
1:40
way and now we go into finder and with
1:44
any luck we click on it and there's a
1:47
zillion options here I did ctrl click
1:49
but if I go to services there it is set
1:53
desktop picture there we go there's my
1:56
new desktop picture now what does that
1:59
take a total of 20 seconds to do go
2:01
through and do an image search
2:02
and what turns out to be really nice and
2:04
what I've done myself is that you can
2:08
use that same image search trick to
2:11
actually grab 10 20 50 200 images that
2:15
you really like for your desktop put
2:18
them all in a folder and then in the
2:20
System Preferences on the Mac specify
2:23
that it should randomly pick from that
2:25
folder and even change every 30 minutes
2:27
so you can have lots and lots of
2:29
interesting backgrounds this one I
2:31
really really like I haven't actually
2:33
played the game that this is tied to and
2:35
I understand the game has rather a dark
2:37
theme to it but suffice to say that was
2:41
a really fast way for me to change my
