Note: - Methods 2, 3 and 4 do not keep their links permanently in the Background: list of pictures. i.e. only Method 1 will add a permanent link to a Desktop Background picture.

For unique pictures to be used only for the Desktop, I recommend creating in My Documents a folder named, My Desktop Pictures. Pretty pix are then copied into the folder and I use Method 2 and Browse to My Documents\My Desktop Pictures and make a selection.
