Hi Rob - How are you changing your background image? On my FC3 system, I right- click on the desktop and choose Change Desktop Background from the context menu. Is that what you are doing? How was your system built? Is it a fresh install of FC3 or upgrade from earlier version? Can you provide a little more information? Also - can you please post to the list in plain text instead of HTML? There are several list members who prefer plain text for a number of reasons. Cheers, Thomas
