I want to change my computers standby screen or whatever it is called

[Theresa]

I am very new to computers so helping me might be a
challenge if you don't understand me. If you do that is
great! Now let me try to explain what I want to do. There
is a screen that shows icons for each individule user
after acertain time period has lapsed, it leaves that
scteen and goes to a blank screen with the Windows XP
logo popping up all over the place, now what I want to
know is can I change that to a more desireable theme? If
so, how in the world do I do it/!?!?!

Right click an area on the desktop and choose properties. You can
change the wallpaper and screensavers using the tabs.
