Yep, was just getting ready to post, but had to test it first, lolz.

I did't have the Backgrounds folder, so had to create it.

or delete the wallpaper layer, and create an image template and set the newer image that way, MANY diff approaches, BUT i was just giving him the simplest way without the SDK installed.. haha

The simplest method without the SDK is to add a background to the background folder and changing it in the settings... this doesn't require any knowledge of any kind other then transfering the file which you need to have either way...

yeah maybe, we'll agree to disagree, haha. I personally think that Ftp in to create a folder and drop your image is easier than ftp in to pull out the skin and the download a program to edit it, then ftp it back in. But, whatever, give 'em as many ways as he can.

Besides, at least with the Background image folder, I believe he can take it across different skins, as opposed to being stuck with whatever skin he mods.

Yeah, it used to just go in Aurora's root in previous versions. Back then it needed to be named background with .dds/.jpg/.png/.bmp extension.

I would assume those extensions are still valid, but since you can now choose the image through the GUI, it shouldn't matter what you name the file.
