You mean a background like you could have in Windows 98 
!? That would be useful for a few folders . How does it cooperate with the images that already come with the music/video/images pictures in those "special folders" ?
Looking forward to the code.

Or... you could use this ..... "Background Wizard v1.01" http://www.geocities.com/phtm77/ click the 'Downloads' link. It was created before XP existed, but it works.

That's the problem with these "secret codes" they're not really secrets.

Oh, and BTW, I've used WindowsPaper XP that Tarkus links to and it's quite good...allows for any wall on file to be used as a b/g, also various images/formats to be used as folder personalisations like 'My Pictures' & 'Music', etc. Quite nifty!

Is there any way to use a small image and have it put in a particular corner of the window the way XP does with My Pictures etc... ?

You could always create a larger image with Photoshop or whatever, with only that small image in the corner on a white background, or whatever color background you want.

Not sure about the other program mentioned, but the only problem with Windowspaper XP is that it tiles the background. If you have a seemless background though it looks pretty cool.
