I used to have half-a-dozen sheets of paper pinned up on the wall behind my screen - things like the .NET string format cheat sheet, Powershell quick reference, the hex codes for our corporate colour scheme. Then we moved offices and now I don't have a wall any more, so I want to use my Windows desktop to do the same thing. It's really easy to take a quick glance at the desktop by tapping Win+D twice, so it works fairly well - but it's a bit laborious setting it up!
I've taken to pasting snippets onto my wallpaper using Photoshop, then "re-selecting" the wallpaper image to force Windows to refresh it - which is a bit of a roundabout way of doing it. Desktop gadgets would probably have worked, but since MS deprecated the feature and shut down the gadget gallery, there isn't really a reputable place to find them.
Any ideas? Anything that'll let me pin JPGs and PNGs to my desktop without having to edit my wallpaper every time?

Aside from this online desktop creation tool that might help speed up the process, there's no existing feature or 3rd party tool that I know off. : http://www.quickpicturetools.com/en/multiple_picture_wallpaper/
