Location of desktop background pictures.

Easy question: where, on my computer, will I find the desktop background
pictures for vista? I want to add them to a wallpaper changer.

Hi,

The default offerings are here:

C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper

But you can use any location to grab an image from.

Thanks, I didn't think of looking there. So MS change the name from
"Wallpaper" to "Background", which is logical, and then put the "wallpaper"
in the "Web" folder, which doesn't seem logical since it is the only thing
there.

MS and logic (of any technical or user interface design) in the same
sentence? Surely you jest.
