This is also my very first Instructable, so criticism is wanted. This will show you how to change your boring single wallpaper in Windows 7 Starter if you use the Windows 7 Basic Color Scheme.

Not bad, though I think the actual order of folders is Windows -> Web -> Wallpaper -> Windows... at least it is on my Acer Aspire One, so it could be different on other computers. Also, like Ranie-K, I can't actually replace the img0 file. Maybe there's some trick to doing that, and if so, including it would be great. Otherwise, easy to follow and probably works.

man, i'm really sorry.. but your explanation sucks..
you talked about "web" folder before we entered "windows".. WHY? your final step sends us back to step number 4?! what da heck?
order of thing, step by step.. it is important.
well, may be it's me.. but i didn't understand how did you change the pic at the end.
but thank you for your tutorial any way.
really no offence..

My computer doesn't allow me to replace that file. Yours does?
