Hi everyone! I've noticed that everytime I put a picture in the "my pictures" folder in my documents it then shows in the display properties under desktop. Does anyone know a way around this? If there is a registry correction and someone knows it I would be glad to hear it. I am very comfortable working within the registry, thanks to Computing.net.

What I did was to create another folder in My Documents, and move them to it.
