Set it to a bogus location or capture the default blue screen and cut out a blue dot from the screen and save it (.bmp) and use it.
I used a 2"x3" department logo and centered it on the default blue desktop.

If I remember correctly, you need to enable active desktop, and the active desktop wallpaper...But, put a bogus path to bogus file in there. I think it comes up with the default blue that way, but not sure if you can specify a different color.

I would like to know if anyone knows how to standardize the wallpaper/background via GPO on XP workstations? I want to specify a background color with no wallpaper, no background, and to not allow the user to change the color or any other settings. It looks like I can accomplish most of this if I force a theme and hide or disable some of the tabs. but I was hoping to not have to force a theme. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
