DX wallpaper will not stay loaded...any ideas?

Sunday, August 8, 2004 by reedycreekguy | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

When I load a DX theme using either theme manager or DX itself, the them wallpaper will load but then it will revert back to the windows wallpaper from the display properties. Am i missing a checkobx somewhere. I'm using XP and ONLY have loaded DX or Theme Manager (no windowblinds, windows FX, etc).

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

nope, that is what is supposed to happen thats the beauty of dx... everything goes back to normal once you unload it. I suggest setting it as your windows wallpaper

Joel, do have the most recent version of Desktop X? I downloaded and tried to use the excellent "Airlock" them a month or so ago and had the same trouble. I would load the theme, the Airlock wall would load then disappear back to the one I was already using. I then made sure I was running the most recent version of Desktop X, deleted the theme and then redownloaded it. Once I did that the appropriate wall remained every time I load a theme that has an associated wall, even ones I have made myself. Hope this helps.
