You can download the image you are looking for as a background from http://www.theouterlimits.com/downloads/index.html?desktop.  You can make that a screen saver in windows by using the My Pictures Slideshow and putting the picture in a folder by itself and telling the screen saver to look in that directory for pictures.

Mimic a watermark in Excel   \nWatermark functionality is not available in Excel. If you want to display a graphic on every printed page (for example, to indicate that the information is confidential), you can insert the graphic in a header or footer. This way, the graphic appears behind the text, starting at the top or bottom of every page. You can also resize or scale it to fill the page.\n\n-On the View menu, click Header and Footer. \n-In the Page Setup dialog box, click Custom Header or Custom Footer. \n-Click in the Left section, Center section, or Right section box. \n-In the row of buttons in the Header or Footer dialog box, click -Insert Picture  and then find the graphic you want to insert. \n-Double-click the graphic to insert it in the header or footer section box. \n-To resize or scale the graphic, click Format Picture  in the row of buttons in the Header or Footer dialog box and then, in the Format Picture dialog box, select the options you want on the Size tab.

. Make use of white space \n\nWhite space is the blank area that surrounds the data. Strangely, having white space surrounding your data makes your data appear more prominent on the page. \n\nWhether reading the spreadsheet on screen or printing it out, good use of white space should make your spreadsheet easier to look at and reduce eye-strain. \n\n2. Add borders where needed \n\nBorders on a spreadsheet, just like borders between countries define the sections of information that belong together. It makes it much easier to see at a glance all relevant information. For example a monthly budget may be broken up with borders around each week. That way you can see the budget for the month over all, but as each week has borders around it, you can also easily see what's happening on a weekly basis. \n\n3. Pick a font and stick with it \n\nThere's nothing worse than opening a spreadsheet and finding a hodge-podge of fonts thrown together for no particular reason. It looks unprofessional and can be quite hard to read. Pick one simple font to work with - preferably a common font that will be on any pc the spreadsheet is used on (eg Arial, Century Gothic or Times New Roman). Its also a good idea to choose san serif fonts (eg Arial) over serif fonts (Times New Roman) as they are easier to read. If your spreadsheet is for work, find out what the company preferred font is and use that exclusively. \n\nOnce you've picked your font, feel free to change the colour and size as necessary for emphasis. Using bold for headings and italics to highlight is a good idea - but don't go overboard. \n\n4. Size 8 font isn't a good plan \n\nThe smaller the font, the harder it is to read. While size 8 fonts might look just adorable, they're a nightmare to read for most people - even more so for those with eye problems. This is particularly important to keep in mind if you aren't the only person using or viewing the spreadsheet. Size 10 or even size 12 are much more user friendly (although perhaps not as cute!). \n\n5. Use the correct cell format \n\nCorrect cell formats can save a lot of time and effort. If you are planning on using a column for dates - select all the cells below the heading and format the cells as dates. Excel will then recognise anything you put in those cells as a date. So if you want the format to be 12th December 2003, all you'll need to type in those cells is 12/12/2003 - a huge time saver. \n\n. Colours are great for emphasis \n\nColoured Backgrounds work well with borders to distinguish headings from data, different types of sub-totals and totals, months, etc. Use caution, however, when choosing your colours - using a combination of a lime green background for headings with purple writing and eye popping red backgrounds for your data may not be the best combination. \n\nGenerally, if you are going to make use of any dark colours, they should only be used for headings and you should always use a pale colour for text on dark colours - white and pale grey are good for this purpose. \n\nAny colour used as a background for your data should preferably be a pale shade. \nUse common sense when choosing your colour palette - bad choices can make your spreadsheet down-right painful to look at. If you find you get a headache every time you open your spreadsheet, think about toning down your colours. \n\n7. Charts are a great addition to your spreadsheet \n\nManagement love charts! Why? Because they don't have to wade through oceans of data to get the information they need. At a glance they can see whether profits have risen or fallen. Busy people are far more likely to look at a chart than they are to read rows and rows of data. So, add a chart to your spreadsheet - your boss will love you for it! \n\n8. Think inside the box - Use more than one worksheet \n\nSpreadsheets are basically boxes that are either printed on box shaped paper, or viewed on a box shaped monitor. Try to keep this in mind when designi
