Theme Pack 1

[YupYup]

Is there some way I can just use the wallpapers in these themes as a slide show. As in, use all the theme wallpapers in this pack, along with the default windows wallpapers with a 10s slide show interval? There has to be a way!

Just put them in a folder where the rest of the windows wallpapers are( C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper ), then they will show in the "windows Desktop Backgrounds" category.

You could of drag and dropped from the personalization window.

Actually, you can put them wherever you like.

1) Place your wallpaper collection(s) into one or more folders of your choosing.

2) Create a new LIBRARY. For example "My Desktop Wallpapers"

3) Add each folder created in Step 1 to the "My Desktop Wallpapers" library.

4) Under PERSONALIZE>DESKTOP BACKGROUND click BROWSE>LIBRARIES and select the "My Desktop Wallpapers" library created in Step 2.

5) Select the desktop pictures you want in your slideshow.

Notes:

The folder created in Step 1 must contain at least 1 picture before they will appear (sort of "duh" statement I know...).

The folder view in BROWSE>LIBRARIES is "flat" and no subdirectories will be shown. Only the immediate folder reference included in the Library will appear.

I could not make just the immediate folder name display and not the full folder path specification (like it does if you select "Windows Desktop Backgrounds"). Must be a registry/internal Win7 trick. If you figure it out let me know please.

Have fun!
