- Wallpaper file paths
- Posted by dukiesma1001 on March 30th, 2008
I found some .jpg & .bmp (files) pictures that I'd like to use as Wallpaper,
individually, not as part of a slideshow. I don't know where to put them so
that they'll show up on the list, along with the rest of the Wallpaper
choices that came with my WinXP. Could someone tell me where I can put them,
or what I need to do to get them there?

If you place them in any of the following locations, they will show up in the
list accessed through Display Properties -> Desktop page.
Your My Pictures folder and its subfolders
C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper
C:\Windows
C:\Documents and Settings\YourAccount\ Application Data\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer
Take a look at this article for more info.
