Hi
I'm kinda new to the whole windows blinds thing and I was wondering if anyone could help. I've installed a few blinds on my w7 but for some reason I can't find a way to change the wallpaper on my desktop. I've changed about 5 or 6 windows blinds but i still have my original wallpaper, the one I had before installing windows blinds. I click the blinds, click on the section Wallpapers and I can only find my own wallpaper.
I'm sorry for asking such a stupid question(I bet it has a very simple solution but I just can't seem to find it). I am also sorry if I posted this in the wrong section.

And if you want the wall shown in the windowblind preview, usually, it'll be a seperate download.

I've done that and i still can't find it there. I even left just that section (windowsblinds wallpaper directory) checked and it still shows me just my old wallpaper:(

I got the one for 'cypher', but there are some windowsblinds that don't have a separate download link for the wallpaper and i can't find it when i look for it. I just thought it would've been something that I overlooked while installing the skin

Not every skin includes the shown wallpaper of the preview. Nor does every skinner uploads the shown wallpaper here, since not every wall is made by themselves.
If a wallpaper is supposed to be included, it is either packed into the downloaded zip or installed with the skin in its own skin folder (c:users/all users/all documents/ stardock /windowblinds/skinfolder).
It normally stands in the description here of a skin. If there is not a wallpaper included nor uploaded here, you may can find the name or a link to it in the comments of a skin.
But of course you can use your own wallpaper. Windowblinds does not change your wallpaper with a skin, only you windows gui. But it has some functions in addition to change your wallpaper.
