\screenshot{02-SystemSettings.png}{ss:System Settings}{You can change most of your system's settings here.} One of the advantages to a windowed environment through \application{Unity} is the ability to change the look and feel of your desktop. Don't like the default Ubuntu theme? Do you have a picture of your third cousin's aunt's uncle's nephew's pet chihuahua that you'd love to see on your desktop as wallpaper? All of this (and more) is possible through desktop customizations in \application{Unity}. Most customizations can be reached via the \application{Session Indicator} and then selecting \menu{System Settings} to open the \application{System Settings} application window. The Dash, desktop appearance, themes, wallpapers, accessibility, and other configuration settings are available here. For more information see \seclink{sec:session-options}.
