PlanetRicki.com Video and Audio Files. The video and audio files on this site require the latest version of Real Player, Quicktime, Flash or Windows Media Player. Free downloads are available by clicking the links below. If you still encounter problems, try downloading the file to your computer and then opening it. (See below)

Download Speeds: Hi or Low? Most of the video and audio files have two download speeds. Hi is intended for those using DSL or Cable. Low is intended for those who use a slower connection, such as dial up. You can choose either setting, however note that depending on your connection speed it may longer to download larger files.

Saving Video and Audio. You can download and save video and audio files to your computer. In Windows, right-click and choose 'save target as.' For MAC, press 'ctrl' and click the link, choose 'download file to disk.'

Why doesn't PlanetRicki.com use the FLV format? At this time, we are only able to offer videos in the formats above. We are working to find a cost and time effective solution to convert all video files to the FLV format.


Desktop Wallpaper. Common issues include choosing the wrong image size and trouble with downloading.

What is my Screen Size? To determine your screen size, ckeck your computers display settings. See your Operating System's "Help" center.

The Image is not loading when I click it. There are two reasons for this. 1) The link you have followed may be incorrect, please notify us. 2) The image may still be loading. Large image files take time to display, especially on slower connections. In this case, you may want to right-click the link and choose 'save target as' so you can view the download progress.

The Image is not showing on my Desktop. Make sure when you right-click you choose 'set as background' (PC) or 'save image to disk' (Mac). You may need to check the file path to the image is correct by opening your computer's Visual Settings panel.

The Image seems to be "stretched" or does not fit properly. Did you make sure you downloaded the correct size for your resolution? The wrong size will not display correctly. In Windows, you may need to change the orientation setting in the Visual Settings panel. Be sure it is set to Center, not Stretch or Tile.

The colors appear to be grainy. You may need to adjust your color settings to 16-bit, 32-bit or True Color. 256 Colors or less are not supported. You can change these settings in the Visual Settings panel. Consult your operating system's Help files for more information.
