I like to change My Place background, when the Seasons change, or for Holidays, (just like I change my desktop wallpaper).

I have noticed that the choice of backgrounds hasn't changed much over the last few years. I just checked the Fall backgrounds (all 9 of them), and they are the same as last year.

Just wondering....are there other people who would like to see some new ones, or do you usually just use the same one?

Does anyone know how the backgrounds are chosen, or how often new ones are introduced?

Sure, new is nice!

they had a burst of new backgrounds a little over a year ago. since they they have been working on other aspects of the site such as linking with facebook. eventually they might give us more backgrounds to choose from.

This is what Kelsey posted awhile back in answer to this q...

We have dozens of BIG projects we're working on, so there won't be any new backgrounds for a while yet... but stay tuned for future releases. Thanks!

Aha! Thanks Megan.
