Colored Desktop Backgrounds

This is a site which contains a collection of pure colors that can be set as your desktop background wallpaper. Simply save the color you want as an image and set it as your wallpaper.

Most of the colors are taken from the standard HTML color names, but there are also some special ones.

While some operating systems have a built-in way to choose an arbitrary color value to use as your desktop wallpaper, some only offer a limited selection of basic colors to pick from. You can of course also use the hex color codes associated with each visible color too.
