Makes sense - I'll try to come up with a few in the next couple of days. I guess drop 'em in a directory like /usr/share/wallpapers? then you can make that the default folder to browse in your prefs UI?
For the category picker - how much work would it be to maintain both modes and let the user pick in the prefs? And for editing the categories - I found the 'configure' button at the far right - but I don't see how to add or remove categories from there - I was able to assign apps to certain categories, but not edit the list of categories.
