FEATURES

Downloadable Backgrounds

Virtual (Zoom/Teams etc) + Phone Backgrounds

Webb themed downloadable virtual backgrounds for desktop teleconferencing apps like Zoom/Teams and mobile phones in portrait orientation.

Versions

For most backgrounds there are a few versions, an original version (ORIG), a darkened version (DARK), a blurred version (BLUR) and a darkened and slightly blurred version (DARK+BLUR). The latter versions de-emphasize the background while keeping it recognizable, helping you to stand out! A few examples are demonstrated here by our Senior Project Scientist, Nobel Laureate John Mather.
