Heres where it won't let me browse--

You have XP yes? If so, don't bother with the properties box ... just go to where you have your pictures stored ....
Start>my pictures
Open folder that your picture is in
Select picture and then click Set as Desktop Background (top left hand)

I've attached some pictures of how I do it but even though yours might not look the same - perhaps, for example, you don't have picture folders, or perhaps you have everything in list view - the basics are the same once you find your picture.

I've tryed that too... but they do set. but not on my background, if I restart they'll come up whenn restarting then be gone when everything is up.

Looking at your picture I *think* I can see the problem there. Looks like you are stuck on the background colour. Ready for another picture 'tutorial'?

1. Bring up display properties again and click on one of the names in the box
2. For instance I have clicked on the one called 'friend' and you can see the picture on the little screen.
3. Now you can use the browse button (as you can see I've browsed to my own My Pictures folders)
4. Find the picture you want and open
5. Click apply
....

6. All done!

Thanks for trying to help but it unclickable Look at the browse button... or even the area where they have backgrounds you can choose from. (sometimes I have computers! )

I see what your problem is. Somehow you've got every single one of your picture set to a PSPIMAGE file, or they're all set to open up in PSP..

Perhaps you locked it on that setting by accident? I really doubt that but maybe.

Great backgrounds, Chris.

Well even if I did lock it on that.... perhaps the question is how do I unlock it?

I think your right Bri... because all my pictures are PSP files... if I click on them it bring up PSP. But I can also open them with internet explorer and other programs... if I right click then hit OPEN with then the program. But it default opens with PSP. So what can I do to fix the problem anyone know?
