Pulled from a googled technet article:
Select Personalize when right-clicking the Desktop, and click on Windows color in the window that pops up. Select Advanced appearance settings, and in the drop-down box, choose Desktop and select your color (a nice blue color I like is the Hex color #a9dbf6).

Oh wait fixed it.

I had to set the background as a black solid colour then chuck on my pic.

You have it set to "fit" instead of "center". Makes no difference though if you've already solved it

Do a barrel roll!

But yeah, you set pic to "fit" and there should also be a background color dropbox in that same tab.

Either that or your aussie pr0nz derped it :) me wants!
