Consistently when I go into Display Properties/Wallpaper option in my computer I always see to it that it just shows the images which are only from My Pictures in my computer? How can I be able to get it only from the WINNT/Web/Wallpaper folder?

The easiest way for solving the problem is as follows:
1. Browse to C:\WINDOWS\Web
2. Once there create a new folder and rename it as a wallpaper1
3. Click start then run and type regedit (warnig I take no liability for any registry changes you make).
4. Expand to; HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion
5. You will see an entry called "WallPaperDir"
6. Right click on the entry and select modify.
7. Change the entry to "%SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper1" DO NOT INCLUDE THE QUOTATIONS MARKS, then select ok.
8. If you wish you can then modify it once more back to; %SystemRoot%\Web\Wallpaper
9. That's it; your done close, the registry editor and you should no longer have any pictures from your "My Picture" folder and subfolders showing as desktop backgrounds in the list.
