O.P. List of Backgrounds in Display Properties

Is there any way not to show all pictures we have (other than Windows default) in the list of Backgrounds in Display Properties?

It's very annoying to have all pictures from My Pictures folder in there.

I don't think there's a way around that: it's one of Microsoft's 'mega-easy-use' policies.

I found the problem.

That's because of the ImageStudio folder in My Pictures folder, which I got from installing WMP 10 (and I prolly have not activated it).

just copy all the stuff out of "My Pictures" and delete the folder and make a new one change the icon and there you go!

I got the exact same problem again but in different case.

I don't have the ImageStudio folder now, and this is a different computer.
andre3000's way didn't work.

Any ideas?
