Easily restore a lost desktop picture
Authored by: skinnyjimmy on Jan 17, '05 12:13:29PM

Mine is kind of related...

I keep a 45MB folder of desktop pictures on my iDisk, so that my desktops are synchronised across different machines.

If I use the desktop pref pane and point to the folder on the iDisk, a logout causes the desktop picture to revert to the Aqua Blue. Going to the pref pane and changing an option (i.e. change every 5 mins to every 30), the system updates and the desktop comes back.

If the folder is local, there are no problems with logging out / restarting etc., the preferences and desktop behave as expected.

A little annoying too - anyone seen this one?
