Hi April,

Returning with comments. These look great as usual; just a couple of
simplifications that I think background-online would benefit from.

True. What we could do is move the step-by-step instructions out of the
previous topic (fonts-toobig) and just link to this one. It's important
that they're linked, though.

Thanks,

<title>How can I change the resolution that fonts are displayed at?</title>

<p>You can modify the font resolutions by following these steps:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Select 
<guiseq><gui>System</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Appearance</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>Select the <gui>Fonts</gui> tab.</p></item>
<item><p>Click on the <gui>Details</gui> button. This brings up the <gui>Font 
Rendering Details</gui> window.</p></item>
<item><p>On the field next to the label <gui>Resolution</gui>, type in the font 
resolution you wish to use. Remember that using a lower number decreases the 
size of the font. </p></item>
<item><p>Click the <gui>Close</gui> button to go back to the <gui>Appearance 
Preferences</gui> window.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui>Close</gui>.</p></item>
</steps>
<!-- Guidance on typical resolutions, and why you might want to change the 
resolution, might be useful here. -->
<note>
<p>
All changes made are immediately reflected on your desktop.

<title>Get a desktop background from the internet</title>

<p>Your system comes with many available wallpapers or desktop backgrounds; 
however, you may also download more from many sources online. To do this:</p>

<steps>
<!-- This topic is only about desktop backgrounds, so any picture will do. 
Mentioning themes and icons may confuse the issue; these can be explained in a 
different topic. -->
<item><p>Visit a website that lists downloadable desktop elements such as 
themes, wallpapers, and icons for your desktop. One excellent source is 
www.gnome-look.org. </p></item>
<!-- Should add a link to gnome-look -->
<item><p>Select from one of the many wallpapers available. </p></item>
<item><p>Download the wallpaper you have selected and save it on your 
computer.</p></item>
<!-- Mention that, to download the wallpaper, you need to right-click and 
select the Save option -->
<item><p>To add the downloaded wallpaper to the available backgrounds in your 
system, select 
<guiseq><gui>System</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Appearance</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>Select the <gui>Background</gui> tab.</p></item>
<item><p>Click on the <gui>Add...</gui> button.</p></item>
<item><p>On the <gui>Add Wallpaper</gui> window, navigate to the location of 
the downloaded wallpaper. </p></item>
<item><p>Click on the wallpaper to select it.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui>Open</gui>. This will automatically add the new wallpaper 
to your system's background selection. Your current desktop background will 
also be changed to the new image.</p></item>
<!-- I think you can just drag an image into that window to add it, too -->
<item><p>Click <gui>Close</gui>.</p></item>

</steps>

<!-- Might be good to mention that any picture can be used as a background, but 
it will look silly if it's too small -->
