Windows 8 Startscreen desktop icon
I like to use a plain colour for my desktop but when I set a plain colour the start tile for switch to desktop mimics the desktop and looks silly, especially as a large tile. Does anyone know how to change the icon for the desktop on the startscreen. Thanks

(Disclaimer: I don't have Windows 8 myself)
All searches I did for customizing the desktop tile pointed to the free app OblyTile, but as far as I can tell it can customize almost any tile but *not* the desktop tile...

Perhaps 8.1 will rectify this. In the meantime I've added a small logo to make the tile more bearable without distracting too much.
