My Better Desktop enables its users to easily customize their desktop background wallpapers by embedding photos anywhere on your wallpaper screen. This software was created out of need for a simple and intuitive (read: quick and fuss-free) way to add and remove photos from the desktop background. Users can design their desktop layout by simply dragging pictures into the desired position and resize them to their preference. Pictures can be added and removed at will. The software can display not only show static photos found on users' computer, but it can also show off content found in on-line photo albums, as well as webcams.

Custom desktop designs can be saved and shared with other users. Users have an option to register a free user account at mybetterdesktop.com, which provides access to online picture albums and live webcam channels that can be added to a desktop wallpaper.

My Better Desktop Wallpaper is a new type of a desktop background. This new type of wallpaper is just like regular static desktop backgrounds except they may contain self-updating images from photo albums, webcams, etc.

The goal was to create a portable wallpaper file, filled with dynamic content, which can be shared easily in an on-line world.

To apply these wallpapers to your desktop you will need to download the software and import the .dtw file. Once you have the software installed all you need to do is double-click on dtw file to launch the app and apply the layout.

DTW (DeskTop Wallpaper) is a new wallpaper file format that describes a new type of wallpaper. The goal was to create a new wallpaper file format in such way, so if shared with other people (i.e. friends and family), it would display the same photo albums, webcam views as you would see on your own computer.
