Are you bored with your spreadsheets? Why not add a Background Image?
What is that? It’s inserting a picture into the spreadsheet background.
Start with a basic Spreadsheet
[clear]
Go to Page Layout/Background
[clear]
Pick a Picture

And here is the result, a background picture in Excel.
Once you scroll down or to the side, you will realize that it’s a repeating picture. It also doesn’t shrink or enlarge very well.

Why do people hate the Background images so much?
One: They can be difficult to read. Can you read all those numbers? Neither can anyone else.
Two: Printer Ink? Rather Expensive. Don’t make people mortgage their house so that they can buy printer ink.
Three: The image needs to be adjusted BEFORE it’s added as a background images. Microsoft has never really provided many tools to adjust the background image. Give it a shot. The cells change size, but the picture does not. This command is still at the 1995 Excel level.

Main reason why people like to insert an Image into the background:
It’s PRETTY!

Just don’t though, okay? Post your vacation pictures to Facebook, not Excel.
