My Pictures in wallpaper tab

As I'm sure many people know, the contents of your My Pictures folder are added to the wallpaper tab in display properties. I didn't mind this, as when more than 100 pictures are in My Pictures this stops happening as it did on my computer (Microsoft = sensible).
However, I have just installed RC1 of Service Pack 2 and they have stupidly altered this so all 627 pictures are added to the list. This means the wallpaper tab takes ages to open as it finds all the pictures and the list in stupidly long.
Other than moving my pictures of out of My Pictures, does anybody know a way to stop this?

Copy the picture that you are using as your wallpaper and put it into a folder of it's own. Then set the new copy of the picture as your wallpaper. Only pictures in the same folder as your chosen wallpaper are shown on the wallpaper tab (in addition to the default wallpapers).
