The school has obviously imposed such restrictions for good reason. Let's not sully the good reputation of Daniweb by helping you to circumvent those restrictions in defiance, eh?

If your teacher has okayed the change, then save the image you want as wallpaper to CD, and get your teacher to request that the School's network supervisor makes the change for you!

LOL...Cat's a stickler - I love it! The reason Catweazle is leading you down this path is the same reason I would; for what you're trying to do you would need to obtain rights over the system sufficient to change that picture. While the picture may not be inappropriate, hacking a system for admin to be able to set that picture would be and ultimately we don't want to see you get kicked outta school for something dumb like that...Cat's title is Grandad so you know he's lookin' out for you! Cheers!
