"my pictures" folder

Hi all!

I have a quick question for you...

Is there a way to change the "default" folders where pictures get saved? the reason why I am asking is because every time I save pictures under the "my pictures" folder they all appear as a back ground, when I go under properties > desktop...

Is there a way around this besides creating a different folder?


Thanks!

I couldn't find a different way to do that when I wanted to do it awhile back. Everything in My Pictures ended up being put in the wallpaper list so I just made a different folder for the pics I didn't want as backgrounds. Takes a little extra effort to send them to the different folder, but it was worth it IMO. Somebody else may know a way to do it, but I don't....so I guess if somebody tells you how, then we'll both know.

oh ok...I created a different folder too, but just thought there may be another way of doing it.

But hey, if anyone knows...please let us know!
