How Often Do You Change Your Start Screen Background & Accent Colors?

[Sir William Wiener]

Accent color daily, background not so much. Haven't found a WP worth it yet. Just wish there was more accent colors to choose from.

Isn't there a custom accent color app now?

Not at the moment :|

Yes there is, it is called "any tile colour"

I play a lot with paint.net and love to toy around with gradient colors and grayscale pics

That sounds like you could be interrested in trying my app "Background Designer". ;-)

I change my background ones a week. Accent color depends on main color of the background.

I change my start screen and lock screen about 4 times a week because I get tired of looking at the same picture after about 2 days . Accent color rarely ever changes

changed the background again. i did this just a couple days ago. accent color stays the same though but depending on the mood i like seeing different wallpapers

I used to change mine almost daily until I found the right background. Now my Sony smartwatch, Nokia 1520, Nexus 7, Galaxy S4, Windows Desktop/Laptop, and Macbook all have the same wallpaper / background lol

I seldom change the tiles however I change the wallpaper and accent colour once a week

Depends, I have got my start screen just the way I need. When my usage habit changes so does my start screen and my accent colour has been locked to Cobalt, I have tried other colours but I kept coming back to Cobalt so kept it on that. I had insane amount of tiles pinned at one point but I got tired lacking at a grid of static small tiles .. This is what I love about windows phone, no fiddling around with silly widget controls or being locked to one alignment on the grid be it vertical or horizontal.

I do change it sometimes the start and the lock screen. The accent color I don't, I just leave it on my favorite color.

I change start screen theme/color almost every day. I re-position the tiles at least once a week, since I am new to WP, I am probably trying to position the tiles in such a way that best suited how I access those. I Bing as my lock screen, so no worries there, Bing does the trick every morning.
